Incredibly brave testimony from IU Associate Dean for Graduate Education Elizabeth Dunn:
Whitten's repression has broken "the fundamental link between us and our students."
"There's a high likelihood I'll be fired today."
"Dear friends, scientifically, this is not a #ClimateCrisis. We are now facing something deeper. Mass extinction. Air pollution. Undermining ecosystem functions. Really putting humanity’s future at risk. This is a #PlanetaryCrisis."
— Professor @jrockstrom#ActOnClimate
Remember this summer - the record break heatwaves, the record wildfires, record floods, record temperatures? Let's ensure that this summer is the last reminder we needed before we did something about it.
No time to waste. #ActOnClimate#climate#energy#renewables

This has been such a labor of love! Check out the new @VisAnthReview issue 39.1 with curated articles about democracy, time, and transitions. Fantastic material for your summer reading or syllabus prep. Check it out!
Despite Texas having the highest population of African Americans in the country at 13.2%, we only make up 4.5% of the full-time faculty at UT Austin.
For Texas A&M it’s even less at 3.6%.
These stats reflect decades of discriminatory practices. We need DEI. #txlege#TxforDEI

Российская журналистка издания The Insider (признано иноагентом в России) Оксана Баулина погибла под обстрелом в Киеве при выполнении редакционного задания.
When we say Kyiv is winning the information war, far too often we only mean information spaces we inhabit.
Pulling apart the most obvious RU info op to date (as we did using semantic modelling), very clear it is targeting BRICS, Africa, Asia. Not the West really at all.
