It's sobering how little of the dynamics have changed in over 30 years. The author doesn't want to attribute it to systemic antisemitism, but I am far more comfortable doing that
@GatekeepKen Haven’t they steadfastly denied doing that for the past two years?
@Ch4j4l3l3@mastodon.social This is incredible! @jann

When you are in an online meeting (Teams/Zoom/Jitsi/...), do you turn on your camera?

@sewblue About 50 years ago, my father’s boss was severely dyslexic. He was also an ophthalmic surgeon, and a USAF hospital chief. He got accommodations for medical boards, and did very well for himself. @Callalily

It is despicable that the Covid vaccine manufacturers are going to charge more than $110/dose for the new XBB.1.5 boosters when available in mid-September.
The US government previously paid ~$25/dose, supplied free of charge, and subsidized these companies with untold $ billions.

Cheating is the Republican platform so we've got to flood the ballot boxes enough to get them out of power in every state as fast as we possibly can.
@StillIRise1963 It’s nice to be able to loathe them, not because they’re Black, but despite it.
@StillIRise1963 Even the few who *think* they have power, don’t. (Looking at Clarence Thomas and Tim Scott.)
@StillIRise1963 Can you expand on this thought?
@makkhorn Exactly! Fairhope is 10 minutes down the road. Best restaurants there!

This article is a MUST READ
Decolonization is not a metaphor
By Eve Tuck & K. Wayne Yang
“Our goal in this article is to remind readers what is unsettling about decolonization. Decolonization brings about the repatriation of Indigenous land and life; it is not a metaphor for other things we want to do to improve our societies and schools.”

A -45% drop in UK students taking German and -37% French A-Levels (courses for 16 to 18 year olds). Really saddening.
Studying languages changed and immeasurably enriched my life, but as a student I still had to defend my choices against idiotic 'but they all speak English don't they' statements.
No, 'they' don't. And even if 'they' do, why not return the favour?
