Next fall’s international student enrollments will be a bloodbath. Catastrophic.
A beige pottery with two handles and a narrow neck, decorated with intricate dark brown patterns depicting a stylized octopus. The vessel is displayed on a white pedestal in a museum setting.
We all need a timeline cleanse right now, so let's start the day with this lovely jug with an octopus motif, dating ca 1200-1100 BC.
On display at National Museum Copenhagen.
A lovely weekend to all of you!

One of the wildest parts of this revelation is that this is really the first I’m aware of this being discussed. The standing city council president (ostensibly the most powerful or second most powerful person in local politics) being pretextual stopped days before a discussion on pretextual stops.

LA City Council’s City President Marqueece Harris-Dawson says he has been pulled over four times while a member of the council; the most recent was this week. He missed a committee meeting because of the stop, according to him.

Woodson began reading the various books and newspapers to his fellow miners…”

“You can’t do much of anything when things are fear-based, especially parenting," psychologist and co-author tells @helenredmond.bsky.social.
“The goal is not to force behavior into compliance, it’s to build trust and reduce harm in the real world.”

A big radicalizing factor to me was talking to people who work in harm reduction and their patients. Most of the people who were struggling with drug use had not been hugged in years. Someone received a bathrobe and cried because they had not felt something soft in so long. I can't forget.
You, an individual, cannot "fix" the whole world. You can act at the scale of your life. You should act at the scale of your life.
