There is a continuing (tenure-track-like) position here in applied mathematics my School. (Note that tenure-track works very differently in Australia – 95% of all people appointed are confirmed after 3 years.) The ad is here

and the closing date is 19 August.

Imagine the suspension of reality required to be involved in the defence team of Trump.

I wonder how Jimmy Carter is doing?
I miss talking about decent people.

NYT’s opinion writer Paul Krugman is declaring #climate is now a culture war issue 🤔

I worked in the U.S. Senate ~20 years ago. Covered climate as a journalist. Cofounded an NGO focused on science policy issues during elections. Am finishing a dissertation on how Congress has made decisions about #science policy for the last 1/2 century - with climate as a central theme.

This isn’t new. #ClimateChange has *always* been a culture war issue.

@Badger_AF @_ohcoco_ @TonyStark Why the hell can't California and New York throw their textbook weight around a little, instead of the damned neo-Confederacy?

@CatHat I will not EVER look at that list. I’ve been stuck with the theme from Dark Shadows for 3 days now. I don’t even know where this one came from. @hosford42 @carorolyn @zenspider @markusl @timbray

NEW: Judge Chutkan is like, I see your briefs today and I raise you a minute order making clear I will have a hearing and it will be before this Friday, fools. It’s 9 pm, and she is not messing around.

@jewwhohasitall Having turned into totally culinary Jews, this year my mother, my daughter, and I will be heading to Cassadaga, FL to see a medium. @serge

A quick minute order from Judge #Chutkan in the J6 #TrumpIndictment setting a quick hearing. Pity that she's waiving the defendant's appearance as it means no in-person bench-slap for #Trump.

At least not yet - it's still early days, and given Trump's pathological inability to control his emotional tantrums, there will be other opportunities for an ass-chewing, likely in the near future.

@RollingStone Oleg Deripaska is Mitch Mcconnells close "friend" who funneled big money into Mitches pocket. Oleg has bought lots of gop traitors.

Absurd! Students in Florida schools will not be prepared to attend colleges/universities in other states. rawstory.com/william-shakespea

@_ohcoco_ @TonyStark I'm hoping other states band together and reject any curricula from Texas or Florida. They may be the biggest states, but they're not the majority.
