Medics across the U.S. have been quietly injecting sedatives to subdue people detained by police. Dozens of deaths reveal the practice carries risks, AP finds. apnews.com/article/invest…
You go through the publish or perish grind for years and years to get tenure, because if you don't, a cop can decide to end your career because they don't like the way you sit on a lawn.

According to colleagues, IU faculty arrested at the Palestine solidarity encampment are slapped w 1yr bans from campus. I have seen many examples of police brutality agst campus protests over the yrs- inc student bans - but I have never heard of faculty targeted this way before
A centrally located light rail stop in one of Seattle's densest neighborhoods is a complete no-brainer long-term, but Chamber bigwigs mostly live in the suburbs and are more concerned with their near-term commutes.

The violent ones are the ones sitting on a lawn, talking. The nonviolent ones are the ones attacking them while carrying guns.
I hope IU protesters get that the appropriate response to this is 1) slam the university with FOIAs and 2) get lawyers to look for illegal coordination with the police ASAP

Why does she have to be so deferential to them, while they get to be so aggressive to her? Shouting, cursing at her, then slamming her into concrete over nothing. Over merely the temerity to ask "What are you doing?".
Cops really think they should get to do whatever the fuck they want to anyone else, no questions asked, no justification needed beyond being cops. And half of each comments section (I hope not half the populace) consistently agrees with them.

FIRE still hasn't mentioned the arrests at Columbia in any official statements. instead, they put out a statement about outbreaks of unspecified violence on campus. a "free speech" organization just declining comment on the arrest of what even NYPD says were peaceful protestors

The massive faculty walkout at Columbia right now in solidarity with the student protesters is incredible. Faculty everywhere should follow suit.
Economists at Harvard estimate that the annual costs of maintaining automobile infrastructure at $14K/year for *every household* even those without a car. A car costs another $12K. The situation is almost certainly worse in TX. Automobile dependence is an economic albatross.

This is cartoonishly hateful from an org that pretends to understand and respect homeless people. What is wrong with using the library to charge your phone and use the bathroom? Isn’t that a useful service for housed people as well?
You should get tax breaks for not driving, for not owning a car, for commuting by public transit. It's a total policy mindfuck that drivers get subsidies for new electric cars ostensibly for the environment but the minimal impact of non-drivers isn't recognized whatsoever.

DIANI & DEVINE MEET THE APOCALYPSE, THE SELLING, BEE & PUPPYCAT S2. #MarkTwainToday has my password. #BLM #DefundThePolice IG: @marktwaintodayAs far as i can tell, the story is: zionist moron yells “kill the jews” to try and mock the palestine protesters, state police hears it, ASSUMES its from the pro-palestine camp, uses it as an excuse to shut the encampment down. Lmfao
It’s sad that there is a perfect form of protest that addresses everything the right way and solves the problems being protested and is serious without being threatening and peaceful without being frivolous, but no one is allowed to know what it is :(
Columbia University students think this dance will somehow ‘Free Palestine.’
honestly if i was a professor at a college and was getting chokeslammed on my own campus for trying to intervene on behalf of my students being brutalized id probably yell "im a professor!" too
Yemeni printers work fast.
Sheriff: ok we need volunteers to go as undercover college students. Officer Frankenstein Firehydrant: Me go. Sheriff: anyone else? Officer Frankenstein Firehydrant: Me go to brain gym.
An undercover was booed away from the crowd.
One thing that seems to get lost in the reporting on this is that these sort of protests happen on campus all the time and the cops aren’t called in because they genuinely don’t disrupt anything. If anything, they’re mocked as ineffectual b/c they’re easy to ignore.
tbc universities’ use of force against student occupations in solidarity with Gaza is entirely issue specific. when I was an undergrad we occupied the front of campus for 17 days over the university’s ties to a coal company and were not cleared out
Godzilla x Kong opened in Japan. Here are my favorite reactions from Japanese audiences, translated, for better or worse, by Google:
This is just as dumb as the original complaint. No one is saying you have to expose anyone to anything, but if you choose to teach a piece of music that intends to make you engage with your surroundings, then engage with them! If you don’t want to, don’t teach it!
The violent ones are the ones sitting on a lawn, talking. The nonviolent ones are the ones attacking them while carrying guns.

Sara Nelson agrees that we should call out the National Guard to address crime in Seattle.
They charged her with battery.
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
In 2020, media breathlessly reported that around 50 officers were injured dispersing a protest in July. SPD inflated their reports with every bruise and scrape they received. The most common: tinnitus (ringing in the ears)
As a journalism major at Emerson College, it is incredibly disheartening to see both local and national media rely exclusively on police reports to cover the arrests of 100+ students last night by Boston Police.
The moral clarity of the students followed by the university president responding to 'in your personal and professional opinion as an educator, is this a genocide?' by taking a long pause then refusing to answer, this summarizes so much about the US right now.
Morehouse students grill their President on having Biden @ graduation "There's a possibility of a genocide happening & we're seeing our government continually sending more & more weapons." "We the students telling you we see it as 'that's being complicit!'"
Jesse is very concerned that the existing GAC treatment paradigm is not helping people. Is there evidence GAC actually helps people? Well, yes. But is there any evidence the GAC approach is too harmful? Well, no. But maybe there's evidence regret is high? Well, also no. >>
Jesse wants to paint me as some sort of ideologue but all I've ever said is that there are a lot of reasons to believe this care works, few to believe it doesn't and none to think it's being doled out carelessly. Nothing in these thousands of words refutes that.
