Bel was one of the Ohioans that Vance demagogued in 2024. He was one of the people who Vance targeted with a blood libel. And now he is dead because of the consequences of that libel. I would like to ask Vance about him.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

We stand with @replamonica.bsky.social in the face of an outrageous and overt prosecution of a political opponent by the Trump administration for conducting congressional oversight. This is appalling.

What's happening to Congresswoman McIver is chilling. Rep. McIver dared to do her job and protect her community via an ICE oversight visit. Now, the Trump administration is trying to put her in prison for nearly two decades.

I have seven invitations from student groups to talk about A.I. They know what I think about A.I. That's why they asked me. They aren't feeling it, y'all.

At the center of my message to faculty yesterday was: 1.) We may not be adequately prepared for how angry students are about tech. 2.) They are not all angry for the same reasons. 3.) Being angry at it doesn’t mean they aren’t using it. The sense of entrapment fuels the anger.

While we’re eulogizing Tim Curry, PLEASE take care not to devalue the life he lived after his stroke and complications. Yes, it was devastating, but he had reached a peace with it, worked hard in rehabilitation to reclaim things he loved.

My dad was a public school teacher; and he always said the toughest parts of the job were: 1. Having to pay for your own classroom chalk, and 2. Performing gender-reassignment surgeries during class hours w/out parents finding out.

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

"What did he do to deserve to be murdered, to be left cold, on the ground, dead, my child? What did he do? ... they don't care ... I expect an apology. Why shouldn't we get one?" -- Alex Pretti's mom

"I was not shocked that he helped somebody. My shock is that he was murdered. And no one has given us the complete truth or anyone has been held accountable. And it's been 7 months! ... there was more effort in vilifying him than pursuing justice" -- Alex Pretti's parents

There are people who disagree with me and who still believe that compromising with anti-vaxxers is a viable path forward. It’s not. Caveat: parents who have legitimate concerns deserve respect and answers, and fortunately it’s fairly easy to figure out if they’re asking in good faith.
