Look at this absolutely badass edition of *Middlemarch* that @ronjaunee.bsky.social edited for Norton— intellectually fierce and elegantly framed, a new standard.

an observation: there are entire traditions of political thought, and theories of action to accompany them, that developed in periods of defeat and under conditions of sometimes total domination. these will be useful guides now.

Fortunately, I have not (though I'm vaguely aware of the existence of the book). I have certainly encountered a certain flavor of British academic defensive of their appropriated academic territories, tho, and this fits the bill...

Worth noting Carnegie did this when faced with massive strikes and growing radical movements around the country. 1886 was the same year as Haymarket. His business partner/enforcer was literally shot by an anarchist. Public libraries are great but he and his ilk funded them because they were scared.

The current R-wing attacks on higher ed are "worse than McCarthyism... And that is really because... what we’re seeing [today] is a very much weaker system of 🇺🇸 higher education than had existed during what was called the Golden Age of American higher education, in the late 1950s and 1960s."

Have settled into a solid morning routine! Wake up with the birds, vow to drink less before bed, Yoga With Adriene, coffee, anxiety paralysis in the kitchen about something I was supposed to do that I probably did not do, wonder if I took my meds, then answer 50 random emails with "SORRY!!!!!!!"

Couldn't afford it until 10 years out, when I got permission to use my Professional Development Fund toward it. I believe regalia should be included with degree. I believe education should be free. And I believe in ceremony—it is significant that our regalia is distinct from "business suits."

This article captures what is truly at stake for university administrators. The student-led protests are not AGAINST you. They are an invitation for you to show who you serve: academic communities, or war-profiteering corporations. It truly is that simple.

Bearing witness to this genocide in Gaza and to the mobilization of militarized police against student protestors across North America and to the media’s excruciating application of liberal “both sides”-ism to the question of GENOCIDE: YES OR NO—if this doesn’t humanize people, will anything?

Israel is currently using bombs supplied by America to murder the civilians in the refugee camps where they promised them they would be safe. (Again) This is so unbelievably evil that I just don’t know how anyone can continue to defend those responsible while attacking those desperate to end it.
