#nolatwitter #nolasky #sftwitter #sfsky Home and heart in New Orleans. If I have to be stuck somewhere else, SF is pretty swell. Be back soon.

I am not that old. In the early years of my career before i comprehensively put my foot down i would regularly find books in my work mailbox with notes from male colleagues instructing me to copy this chapter or that for them

Because admin staff were mostly women, female academics were considered equivalent. There to perform service, not to undertake intellectual work. Of course it was more complex than this, but that's the broad picture. #AcademicSky

Israel said the war was about the hostages. All 251 were returned by January 26, 2026. Hamas hasn’t fired a rocket into Israeli territory since April 2025. Sixteen months. Israeli strikes on Gaza haven’t stopped for a single day. So what is their excuse now?

Seeing a lot of discourse about the movie where people only get to have sex one night out of the year and what you have to understand is that for some of us that’s pretty good

Your little oopsie "mistakes" had me worrying for a year of my life about my partner going to jail for up to a decade based on lies likely fed to you by the top of the federal government. Show everyone what you're covering up in these emails and texts. There's a reason you don't want them released.

Boutros acknowledges 'mistakes' in 'Broadview 6' case but says sanctions, special counsel aren't needed

Should there have been better communication from the Rose Bowl and Pasadena officials about the pool closure? Of course. But Expo Park swimmers are losing their pool for three summers — maybe more — and there's been no public communication like this from LA officials or LA28 aside from my May story

Dear RBAC Community, For more than 36 years, the Rose Bowl Aquatics Center has empowered our community with water safety skills, personal achievement, lifelong friendships, and a love of the water. As we look ahead to an exciting
new chapter, we want to share an important update with you. Beginning April 1, 2027, the RBAC will temporarily relocate its programs and operations to new locations as the Los Angeles Organizing Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games 2028 ("LA28") prepares the facility to stage Olympic diving competitions in July of 2028. Our programs will continue operating in nearby locations throughout preparations for the 2028 Games and through their conclusion, with a planned return to the RBAC in Fall 2028. During this time, there will be welcomed improvements made to the facility that we anticipate including the diving tower, pools, and related mechanical systems. These would be a great
benefit to the RBAC in service of our community for generations to come. This temporary relocation is not a pause in the RBAC's mission or programs. It is a transition and an investment in what comes next. Throughout this process, our commitment remains the same: to provide exceptional aquatics programming, maintain our strong sense of community, and continue serving members
and participants of all ages and abilities. We are incredibly grateful to have early commitments with several partners, such as local schools, colleges, cities, and other nonprofit pools, whose support will help us continue serving our community throughout
this transition. Over the coming months, we will share more details about program locations, timelines, the exciting facility improvements, and the transition to new locations. We know change can be challenging, and we are committed to making this process as smooth and transparent as possible. Updates will continue to be posted
at: rosebowlaquatics.org/LA28. This is a once-in-a-generation moment for the RBAC and the local area. It is bot…

Do they care about school closures when they are driven by climate change or only when they can blame the teachers unions? How about when the schools are closed because they've burned down, been blown apart, or are engulfed in floods?

Black women in America are more than twice as likely as white women to have a stillbirth. Getting physicians to take their concerns seriously is one reason for this disparity, they say: “If you’re a Black woman, you get dismissed.” From the archives:
