2/2 I read Dick Manning's '04 Harper's piece, The Oil We Eat already, and @drvandanashiva 's Soil Not Oil. What else? Thinking about parallels with agribiz, akin to how @NaomiOreskes connects the big oil playbook to tobacco. Would love some contemporary updates.

Reference ideas sought re/pesticides and big oil linkages. Doing some early exploratory research/reading... I'd welcome your ideas! (1/2)

Replying to @PhilaParking
@PhilaParking I sent you a check by mail as soon as my notice came of a speeding ticket. It was cashed 4/6. You sent me a boot and tow eligibility notice 4/16 for same violation. I called and waited for 30+ minutes to then get a vm. What gives?

Grading papers on the tragedy of the commons / lack of any tragedy (Ostrom): 1/2 of my students give examples of public bathrooms, showers, and toilets in @FandMCollege dorms - for better and worse. Residential experiences inform learning, I tell ya.
I loved the creative thinking about reorganizing the international system present here, while cringing at the privilege imbued in the author's language implying mobility choice that climate refugees face amidst displacement. time.com/6209432/climate-cha…
The #monarch butterfly being listed as endangered today may ultimately be the best part forward for its protection. It's a warning and a call for action, not a death knell.

It seems to me that there is going to be a lot of schadenfreude for the Republicans currently facing censure for their #impeachment stances when the next round of elections see even bigger gains for Dems. The Republicans have nothing but hypocrisy left as a party platform.
Amanda Gorman is slaying it.

Found myself up at 1:00 AM watching tutorials on how to do your own pixie cut at home. My response to the challenges of being a righty cutting hair on the other side of your head is going to be: maintain & celebrate asymmetry. I haven't taken the plunge on the haircut yet tho!

I have a grammar question for a piece I'm working on this MLK day: is it Anti-racist or antiracist? Is "antiracist" a noun but "anti-racist" an adjective? @DrIbram you've published with both in your book titles, and articles seem all over the place. Help plz ;-)
The only bad thing about Twitter locking #Trump out of this platform is that now @DefeatByTweet won't be getting as many donations.
