Every time a website asks for city, state, *and* Zip code, I scream. ZIPs are unique to states! Except for like a dozen.

I worry we are in an epic, terrible season of ā€œdeadcatting,ā€ and falling for every bit of it. Boris Johnson famously used this strategy and played the British media time and time again. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_ca...

With 91% of tenured faculty passing review, 8% put on notice, & 1% fired, it seems like this political interference in tenure didnt accomplish its aims. Faculty are doing their jobs, and well Guessing that the goalposts will get moved & worry what that means for #highered#academicsky#edusky

DeSantis pushed for post-tenure review of Florida professors. The first results are in.

Opponents of the law have said the reviews effectively wipe out the tenure system in the stateā€™s public universities.

Agree! I also have a hard time interpreting ā€œI didnā€™t hear anything about her policiesā€ as anything other than ā€œIā€™m leaning Trump but not telling youā€. Admittedly some folks could have taken poorly-time bathroom breaksā€¦ but to say ā€œdidnā€™t hear about her policiesā€?

Iā€™m increasingly convinced ā€œundecidedā€ is code for ā€œI donā€™t want to tell you Iā€™m voting for Trumpā€
