Lawrence’s assessment of Bluesky’s politics relative to the national mood is wholly and demonstrably incorrect. The fact that he thinks Bluesky represents America is instructive of how operating within an ideological bubble skews one’s perceptions of societal norms.

NYU’s Student Government Assembly is urging the university to reconsider selecting Jonathan Haidt as commencement speaker, arguing his views on DEI, transgender identity and social justice are out of step with the values and diversity of the Class of 2026. The letter says students feel “disappointment, disgust, defeat, and embarrassment” over the choice of @JonHaidt and accuses NYU of prioritizing a narrow ideological narrative over students’ experiences.


NYU has boarded off public space, disbanded student groups that promoted liberal discussion of essential issues, blurred the definition of hate speech for punitive ends and NYU Stern prof @JonHaidt has been NOWHERE. To describe him as a supporter of campus free speech is bizarre!

Hope everyone involved is doing okay

I'm a former Harvard PhD student. Based on my experience, current social science students probably make a bit over $250k + healthcare over 5 years, with just 784 hours of required TA work. That's almost $320/hour for the "work" and the rest is classes and your own research.

BREAKING: Judge McElroy quashes DOJ's Rhode Island Hospital subpoena in full, calling out DOJ's conduct as "misrepresent[ing] salient facts" under oath. "[T]he Court GRANTS both Motions to Quash and enjoins the DOJ from seeking or receiving any documents related to this now invalid subpoena."
