Again, one of the many things like this that should have ended it immediately back in February was threatening to invade our closest NATO allies, in direct violation of perhaps the most important international treaty we have ever signed. But that, too, was a joke in the eyes of the Paper of Record.
Mark Copelovitch@mcopelov.bsky.social
Lebensraum: how could we cut a deal on this good fiscal policy?” “Canada: sovereignty is for losers, eh? “Threatening conquest of our NATO allies. Is it good politics?” The NYT has deeply embarrassed itself over many things since Trump, but this one has been particularly shameful & pathetic.

I know "If books could kill" from being On Here.
I could then get to five by naming four I've been on: Curious Task, Reimagining Liberty, Half the Answer, Political Philosophy podcast. But if we rule out that category... ummm... is "Only murders in the building" a real one?

I was about to make a joke about the Brits not treating me as well as the president of the United States that I will now have to rescind.

Coauthor w/ other students. It's a great way to combine your skills & assets while getting similar visibility. Look for regional conferences or other lower-profile outlets for your first presentations. If you're pursuing an academic career path, early exposure & networking are valuable.

You will get yelled at for this because it's bluesky and all pedagogy posts always get yelled at, and because there's no amount of disclaiming you can do about accessibility to avoid the yelling about that in particular, but from me at least: hear hear, absolutely yes.

Norms & duct tape. It's all that held the Republic together. And we've shredded all the norms & the last rolls of tape.
Also, though, these actions not only norm violation & ethically repugnant. They are wildly illegal under both domestic law & international treaties that are also part of US law.
Jonathan Ladd@jonmladd.bsky.social
A complete collapse of political norms around virtue and ethics since 2016. This celebration of cruelty and violence, and the encouragement of the public to take joy in violence against others, is very unhealthy for society.

Have any of them ever addressed that critique directly? They usually avoid it, and anytime I see one talk about the subject, they strawman the critique into something like “rewording some NYT headlines would make Trump go away.” Except that silly claim is not the critique.

You are making the least worst choice among terrible options, as you try & fulfill two impossibly irreconcilable mandates given current politics & policy.
