We've really entered the "international law never existed, but I sure miss it" era of post-history, haven't we

This is what right-wing knee-jerk opponents of international law do not adequate appreciate: the erosion of international legal norms around, say, war has the knock-on effect of eroding international legal norms around, say, commerce and transit.

hi, cis folks!
it’s been a little over a month since the 2 biggest private hospitals in NYC ended trans youth care. some folks thought this was resolved with a judge’s ruling or a letter from the NYAG.
care has *not* resumed!
there’s a simple ask ⬇️ for you, if you’re willing to fight with us. 🧵

People talk a lot about AI leading to de-skilling, but an underappreciated element of its implementation is also a depreciation of professionals’ understanding of information material to their work

One of the main problems with US law is that everything is a constitutional question, which processes every issue through a very strict framework
Bracketing that, why is this not a statutory issue? How is it not the case that police's extraordinary powers are in exchange for duties they must fulfil?

"Bunch of guys obsessed with Ancient Sparta can't beat the Persians at sea" was probably one of the known-knowns, come to think of it.

The US-Israel war on Iran has emitted 5 million tonnes of CO₂ₑ in its first 14 days. The world currently has 0.6 million tonnes of novel and permanent CO₂ removal (CDR) capacity annually.

This really underscores the idiocy of the war's defenders crowing that "blowback" has been decisively disproven.
The material aftershocks of this immoral adventure, along with the destabilization that comes from rending the int'l legal order to shreds, will deeply and adversely affect our lives

Absolutely correct. Besides his actual contribution to the current war, *this* is the liability Netanyahu & his regime hold: gross negligence as to the knock-on effects of their policies and priorities on global Jewry.

I had been sold out of these pins for a while but now they're back! Available from willburrows.art/shop
So far sales of these pins have enabled me to contribute $4125 USD to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund.

Could you understand why a historically oppressed people would want to shuck off that legacy and reconnect with something that is properly theirs?
This, of course, does not excuse the weaponization of language in colonialist efforts. But these bigots elide the essentialism in their indigeneity.

This specious, ignorant and frankly racist view really boils my blood. It's the laziness and prejudice of dropping your anti-imperialism at the mezuzah. Why, pray tell, did many Jewish families have those surnames? Did it have to do perhaps with being subjected to the hegemon?

The chicken shop date gal asked Ethan Hawke if he had advice for unrequited lovers. He says, "The one who's in love always wins. It doesn't matter if you get your heart broken. You're living when you're feeling alive. The sun doesn't care if the grass appreciates its rays. It just keeps on shining."

This is a funny dunk, but the problem with Discourse™ is that all it's interested in is dunks. Ballet and opera are struggling and need actual, material support & sustained interest, not petulant fits of umbrage protected at a careless actor
