For the rare jobs that do exist, faculty get to vote on who to hire. Many have an unofficial “no assholes” rule, which makes the working environment so much more pleasant for everyone. If you’re a grievance-obsessed weirdo, and there are 10 equally-qualified normal people, the decision is easier.

Just days after the end of the International Court of Justice hearings on the climate crisis, Tropical Cyclone Chido smashed into Mayotte, a French territory off the east coast of Africa. A cyclone intensified by climate change! www.euronews.com/green/2024/1...

Honoured to be part of the Peoples' Assembly at The Hague last week, a youth led initiative bringing the voices of people badly harmed by the climate crisis to the world's highest court.

At the International Court of Justice today in The Hague for the start of historic hearings on States' obligations to address the climate crisis. Huge credit to youth and Pacific States for launching what may be the most important legal case in human history ... to avert climate chaos!
