In the spirit of making lemonade from🍋🍋🍋this week, I’d like to find a venue that might publish a scholarly piece informed by personal experience on tech, governance, disability (lack of) accommodations, institutional wealth & DEI hypocrisy. It’d be partly historical but not something that would fit in a history journal. Maybe a journal interested in tech and politics or tech and power that covers multiple disciplines…(1/2)

@histoftech Is it in a higher ed context? And can it be argued this is a form of research, or conceptual? Or is more a reflection?

Circulating word is that plans to disperse Palestinian solidarity encampment at 6. A number of groups including faculty and campus unions are planning on rallying in defense. Meanwhile an administrator has entered the camp to negotiate

@jonny my oldest has been a part of the protests in their campus. They feel so defeated right now and abandoned by political and higher ed leaders of all stripes. Their latest comment was about just accepting that we live in a police state and that’s ok with Republicans and Democrats alike (ergo we need deeper reform than just defeating Republicans in November). Lots of anger and disillusionment (not just them but a shared sentiment).

From my oldest, at Virginia Commonwealth University where students were pepper sprayed last night. Remember this is the generation that experienced school shootings and feels abandoned by the adults and systems.

My oldest was a spectator at a protest tonight at James Madison University and was pepper sprayed by police. As a spectator. As were the students protesting.

I may not be some big time donor. But I’m a mom. I pay the tuition bill. And I’m pissed.

On the drive home from seeing the eclipse, my family stayed in a really gross hotel, but it was late and the last available hotel in that small West Virginia town. They sent me a survey about my stay, which I completed. In response, the hotel manager accused me of lying and banned me from his squalid hotel. 😑

Nothing good has ever come from me providing honest negative feedback in post-purchase surveys. Never.

@waldoj exactly. One guy at a Honda place told me that anything less than 5 stars was bad. So I only ever do that if I truly feel it was a 5-star experience. They aren’t organizational improvement surveys; they’re employee punishment surveys.

A day before Passover begins, the rabbi at Columbia University in NYC tells his Jewish students to go home as the school cannot keep them safe after pro-Palestinian protestors on campus yell “Burn Tel Aviv to the ground!” and other pro-violence slogans supporting Hamas.

StephanieMoore,
@StephanieMoore@mastodon.online avatar

@w7voa Steve, I’m curious if there’s unequivocal evidence of those calls? I’m not on the bird site anymore and not seeing what’s being shared. What I HAVE heard is that the main video driving outrage is being mistranslated and misrepresented. And I happen to know one of the students arrested. She is far from being antisemitic, an anarchist, or pro-violence. Quite the opposite.

@mattblaze I live in New Mexico, wonder this often … somebody decided to stop {here} and build a house, a store. So fascinating.

The place I REALLY wonder why is the Texas panhandle. Did they just think, “jeez, it just keeps getting worse, maybe we should stop before the world just ends”??

Just heard from my oldest that one of his middle school friends - actually went to a middle school dance with her - was arrested today by NYPD for protesting the genocide in Gaza and Columbia’s silencing of protests. She is an amazing young woman.

Our right to protest is being SUBSTANTIALLY eroded. Universities should never be participants in that. So little backbone among university leaders these days.

Cultural history class this week includes the bicycle boom of the 1890s.

Newspapers from this period are filled with the complaints of men who say bicycles ruined their marriages, since wives only care to ride and no longer tend to their "duties."

The Rev. Thomas Gregory saw the bike as a threat to his parishioners' intellect and health.

"It annihilates the reading habit. The libraries are deserted. It is a menace to domestic virtues. It breaks up and destroys the home."

Oklahoma’s governor refuses to let kids in his state access the federal government’s new summer EBT program, to ensure that kids can have meals when school is out. In response, five tribal nations have teamed up to provide the benefits to any eligible kids who happen to live on tribal land (which is a lot of Oklahoma). https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/09/us/politics/school-meals-summer-ebt.html?unlocked_article_code=1.jE0.NZAi.mehkrnKm8xuN&smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare&ugrp=u&sgrp=c-cb

@waldoj I’m part Chickasaw. The work these five tribes in Oklahoma are doing together for health care, education, food access, even economic development in the state is HUGE. I’d love to see a great story that really illuminates the amazing work of these tribes (just back from a trip in Choctaw Nation, lots of great facilities).

JUST IN: Judge #Cannon DENIES #Trump’s motion to dismiss the classified #documents case based on the presidential records act.

In the same order, Judge Cannon also denies the special counse #JackSmith’s request for a prompt ruling on jury instructions prior to trial.

She calls the special counsel's request "unprecedented and unjust."🤦🏻‍♀️ #legal

Yes! I've been shouting this for years now. Gift link:
Forget ‘polarization.’ It’s the GOP’s radicalization. https://wapo.st/4ccHL3R

StephanieMoore,
@StephanieMoore@mastodon.online avatar

@jeffjarvis this is a well-done piece making a strong case. And it has implications beyond November even if Trump loses. In that case, I think the majority of the GOP is going to become a more insidious form of what they are now (the remainder believe they’re at war and are going to respond with violence to a loss). So even if democracy wins out in November, we have to be ready for a major party that continues to be radicalized. That won’t go away overnight.

Via Andrew Weissmann:

My guess: may have someone like co-signing Chubb bond, so the bank is comfortable being on the hook for the judgment. Same could happen for the bond for AG $450M judgment. & this strategy wd allow co-signor to say truthfully that they did not give or loan Trump any $

Joyce Vance:

This=important pt. Trump is beholden to someone & we don't know who. Reporters shd ask him to explain all of the details. GOP leaders shd, but probably won't be esp concerned.
