I ask because like you literally just google what you don't know. Everyone in the industry knows this, but you can't fucking say that at an interview

Just a personal anecdote, but i once said exactly that - that I'm a good googler. Then I went into a spiel about how being able to navigate to certain corners of the interent is an underrated skill in todays world. I ended up getting that job.

Might not always work, but i wouldn't necessarily shy away from talking about it.

Well, Macron appointed a new prime minister. Guess which party they're not part of.

This is legit. I love the facial expression - could be viewed in a lot of ways.

Idk about recently, but the knesset did try to expel him. 85 voted in favor. It failed to get the required 90 though and he remained there. At least at that point

The amount of people wanting to cozy up to the Dems now is too damn high.

from that article:

In this collection’s finest work, Levy’s sentences are cold poetry of a sort. She deals individual cards rather than handles an entire deck. Her stories are vignettes, and the observations whoosh past your ears: “We wouldn’t be collectivizing the Adderall sector”; on drugs, “I could dig a hole to China and save the Uyghurs”;

who the fuck is this person. They suck.

what Israel actually deserves is unlimited genocide

I know theres been struggle sessions around this kind of ironic talk before, but i mean, come on, this shit is just stupid to say.

We shouldn't say it for the same reason we dont have a burning Israel flag emoji.

Israel is a settler-colonial state currently engaging in genocide (and basically has been since its creation). It should be dismantled as a state. Yes. Say that. Not this stupid ass shit you're trying to push. Its dumb and childish and will only drive people away.

Obviously fuck these laws. And even if these laws state that universities cannot legally divest, they should divest anyway and say 'fuck you, take me to court'--but, with that aside, what are the actual details of these laws?

I know it varies state to state, but in PA, for example, where the UPenn encampment was raided this morning, the university says "Penn remains unequivocally opposed to divestment, and it is unlawful for institutions receiving funding from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania."

From what I can tell, there's just a 2016 law that states that the government of PA essentially can't do business with entities that have divested from Israel--but how does that legally prevent the entity from actually doing so on their part?

I keep seeing this claim that "It's illegal to divest, so we as a university can't do so. Tough luck." Not only is it ethically BS, but it seems to be a straight up lie, too?
