Good thread for Republicans to read and take heed. Abortion is the hill the GOP may die on for years to come. You’re supposed to be big freedom lovers. Let women choose and MYOB.

In this important article Jonathan Rauch asks:
'Should academic journals appoint themselves social justice gatekeepers?'

Remember Betteridge's law of headlines: 'Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.'

1958 convo Mike Wallace & Aldous Huxley:
1. Podcasts have captured the genius of what MW did with this show of talking to thoughtful people about important topics (does anyone do this on TV now?)
2. What Huxley is talking about here are covert conspiracies

“It’s clear that the growth of university bureaucracies & administration has been a major driver of the cost of higher education growing much, much faster than inflation. We now have about 4,500 administrators…about three times the number of faculty” theguardian.com/us-news/2022/s…

Big fun Meghan Daum Looking forward to it. I re-read The Problem with Everything in preparation, although I can only find problems with most things, so you’ll have to enlighten me.

Boston Marathon creates a nonbinary division. Good solution to the conflicting rights issue of MTF trans competing against cis-women. What if bio men IDing as binary beat binary bio women? Run races & see if there's an issue—more divisions good solution.

'Given the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022, it's reasonable to suspect that some UAP described in the new report may be linked to foreign surveillance or military technologies.'

A nationwide ban on abortion after 15 weeks? I thought this was suppose to be a states' rights issue conservatives. No? Is it possible some want it outlawed altogether after conception? (Exceptions for Republican's pregnant mistresses, of course.)
