My school has some confusing web sites, as does every university. But I don't think I've seen anything as obtuse as the interface we currently use to set up accommodation exams with our Office of Disability Services -- it's like someone read a book on best UX practices & decided do the opposite.

I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president

Just got a political ad that said “if you vote for this candidate the SOCIALISTS win and more people will have access to health insurance!” Why is that scary for people?
ICE IS ABOUT TO MAKE YOUR GROCERY BILL EVEN WORSE Cattle groups in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas say ICE raids are creating a “massive chilling effect” on legal, documented workers, disrupting meatpacking and delaying the processing of thousands of cattle. They’re reporting millions in losses.

Forget violating "the AI policy," how about we just have a "don't be a dumbass when making decisions" policy? What dumbass in Stanford's comms shop thought this was a good idea?

So if CNN/MS Now/etc win their court injunction against the White House to have their press passes restored, will they just go back to kissing his ass for access?
Who agrees that Canada should make a big push to make America its 11th province?
ICE now says the Doordash delivery driver was shot because he tried to flee. People need to go to jail. Cops aren’t allowed to shoot people for the simple act of running away.

📌Now that you soft-ballers in the press FINALLY understand this felon is playing hardball, it's time for you to band together and refuse to cover the WH. Start calling it the way WE see it. The way it IS: A lawless regime hellbent on destroying this country. Get your heads out of your asses.
Elizabeth Warren, AOC, and other members of Congress have introduced a bill to ban private equity funds from owning or controlling medical practices. This is a big deal. Here’s what you need to know about the shady private equity industry and how it operates.

Do you have any idea how much better things would be right now if Kamala and Tim were in the White House? What if we had elected Al Gore? Hillary Clinton? America needs some soul-searching.
Once Trump is gone, would you support Congress passing a Damnatio Memoriae Act requiring removing Trump's name from all government & publicly owned/controlled properties as well as any government programs?
The president is just such a stupid asshole. I know we try to ascribe motives to this guy but he’s at the end of the day, when the story is written, just a dumdum idiot with a tiny brain that don’t work so good.
Our health care system in America is disgusting. A clear indication that our government doesn't give a fuck if we live or die.
My main reaction to the recent AI results in math is that none of your prompts or conversations are private and they may not even be anonymized and that has a lot of implications moving forward
Will the Supreme Court allow Donald Trump to tear down the Washington Monument unless its name is changed to the Trump Monument?
One of the coolest things about people who don't have a lot of power taking a principled stand is it lays bare the complete cowardice of the ones who actually *do* have power when they fail to do even a fraction as much.
Unlike Macklemore, these support acts don’t have big followings and they are giving up their chance to perform to stadiums to push back against censorship, not of themselves but of a fellow artist. Respect.
So much death and suffering in Ukraine because Vladimir Putin is insecure about the size of his Little Vlad. And Steve Witkof and Jared Kushner are in Moscow giving Putin foot massages while Trump is picking a fight with Canada for no reason.
Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.
I know this is not going to fix anything, but how much media coverage and how much groundswell of excitement from the base do you think would happen if one of these dem candidates just said, once in their lives, what the fuck are you talking about you sound like a dumb asshole right now
Collection agent woke me up and was so nasty when I said that the bill was unlikely to be paid at over 20% of my yearly income. She suggested I’d lived beyond my means by getting an emergency endoscopy. 😆 Must be nice to live in a country where getting sick doesn’t lead to daily harassment.
Every new "innovation" in teaching amounts to teachers doing twice as much work to track something that has nothing to do with their job and won't improve student learning
So now we’re supposed to hate Canada and love Putin? That’s where we are at with this corrupt gangster government?
This is devastating. It really looks like come November, no one can rely on vote-by-mail. You will have to VOTE IN PERSON to be at least somewhat sure your vote can count. Spread the word. www.huffpost.com/entry/postal...
