Bad debate nights happen. Trust me, I know. But this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself. Between someone who tells the truth; who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight — and someone who lies through his teeth for his own benefit. Last night didn’t change that, and it’s why so much is at stake in November. joebiden.com

In late 2023, protesters crashed the Scotiabank @GillerPrize ceremony to call out the bank’s outsize investment in an Israeli arms supplier. The aftermath serves as a reminder of the chasm between writers and corporate sponsors, writes @josiahneufeld.

Thanks so much to @IdentityTheory for publishing this piece about my three favourite people: Robert Stack, Albert Camus and…my Dad!!!!
"The evidence was slim, but I thought one day my father would appear on an episode of Unsolved Mysteries as a fugitive who had murdered his British family..."
Read "Unsolved Mysteries," a new essay by @sandypools. identitytheory.com/unsolved-…
Sad for all my former colleagues, students and friends at New College. Working there was a joy and I still can’t fathom what is happening…It’s an absolute horror story.
All 5 New College professors going up for tenure were denied today, despite approval from the college's faculty and previous administration. Every academic should be paying attention to what's happening there, now. Florida is very likely your future. apnews.com/article/new-colle…
yay for @zoewhittall!!!!!!
