lol there is absolutely zero chance this is not seth abramson editing his own wikipedia article to be like 4,000 words
lol
"Ah, so you are the author of the Herald piece." lmao
anyone have checkuser permissions on wikipedia and want to see if it has a University of New Hampshire IP address
lol this page was created in 2007 by someone who is either a former colleague of seth abramson or seth abramson covering his tracks by using a friends name
page was subsequently edited from anonymous users whose IP addresses border new hampshire to have dozens of citations
lol
anyhow im not gonna thread this but the entire edit history of that page is a mess. it is a continual back and forth between mostly anonymous or single-purpose accounts adding huge spews of stuff to it that is then deleted by editors

cool thing about the verizon first responder ads, they're all because california firefighters emailed them "if you dont unthrottle our internet people are going to die" and verizon told them to purchase a premium plan
Santa Clara fire chief also said he believed Verizon knew that throttling their command vehicle would interfere with fire operations as a negotiating tactic
"County Fire believes it is likely that Verizon will continue to use the exigent nature of public safety emergencies and catastrophic events to coerce public agencies into higher-cost plans ultimately paying significantly more for mission-critical service"

Sheryl Sandberg's narrative on that Facebook spyware it paid teens to put on their phones is full of holes: gizmodo.com/sheryl-sandber…
Sandberg to CNBC: "It’s very clear to the people who participated. It’s completely opt-in. There is a rigorous consent flow and people are compensated. It’s a market research program."
Sandberg also to CNBC on why Apple pulled their certs: "Well of course, as long, as soon as we realized we weren’t in compliance with the rules on their platform, we pulled it."

Today is a day for celebration. I’ll be on the Hill, congratulating heroes. First stop, @ewarren. Next, @NancyPelosi. Final swearing-in event will he with @AOC. So much in between. Full of gratitude for these tough, brilliant women, and the movement that lifted them to power.
MoveOn’s DC squad for the day, heading to the Hill for swearing in.
Senator-Re-elect @ewarren walks in with @SenMarkey at her jam-packed swearing-in reception. Crowd explodes.

This semester in my Arts of Islam survey, I decided to scrap the research paper and have students collaborate to re-write @Wikipedia articles. It ended up better than I could have imagined & transformed how I think about teaching #StudentsOfIslamicArt #IslamicArt #MedievalTwitter
I was hesitant about shaking up a popular class that had worked well for years, but one statistic finally convinced me: 90% of Wikipedia articles are written by men - and largely by men from Euro-American contexts. theguardian.com/education/2018…
The oft-maligned #Wikipedia is the now the world's most frequently-consulted source of information & fifth-most visited website. Because anyone can be an editor, it's on us to make it the best resource it can be. If you think Wikipedia is bad, look in the mirror. Wikipedia is us.

So I was on the Tube the other day and lots of people around me were speaking foreign languages. Somehow, miraculously, I emerged from the train still British. My “identity” was utterly unaffected. I still liked football and beer. A narrow escape?
I stopped off to get something for dinner. I’d decided on a stir fry hot from my own wok. Was I becoming Chinese I wondered? Turns out I wasn’t.
There was a section selling Polish goods including jars of pickles. If I bought some, would opening the jar erase some tiny fraction of British culture? It wouldn’t. They’re bloody delicious.

Say it with me now...Illegitimate Supreme Court. Illegitimate Supreme Court. Illegitimate Supreme Court. To those who offer the glib and trite reply that "the Founders didn't create a democracy" in the face of the fact that the 50 senators who voted for Kav don't represent a...
majority and that four members of the SCOTUS were appointed by presidents who lost the popular vote, my response is this: 1) Everyone who follows politics knows that there is absolutely zero chance that Republicans would accept any of this if it were Democrats who won the...
electoral college twice in 16 years w/out the pop. vote; 2) the values of late-18th century elite white men, however intelligent they may have been on *some* issues, should not be the only determinative factor in how we decide things today; 3) there's no way the founders could...

Want to hear something I should have probably shared before now but hadn’t?
SPOILER ALERT: Gunfire and a Brown Scapular were involved.
(1/xx) So my road to Rome was an exceptionally long one, for reasons to complicated to go into in this format. But this decade long road of Mass but no Eucharist coincided with my decade in the military. I served in the Army, first as an infantryman then as a Green Beret. As you
(2/xx) can imagine, this lead to a high level of activity, as there were two wars going on at this time. I served multiple combat deployments, as well as deployments throughout Southeast Asia. Regardless, that isn’t the point of this story. At least not directly. During my long

From a USAF CMSgt (ret) I highly respect and knew:

Well, once again the left is using a tragedy to their advantage. More denouncing the second amendment. More calls for gun control. More angry noise. OK, here are the facts in the tragedy in which 17 students were slaughtered.
1. It was already illegal for that student to have that gun in his possession.
2. It was already illegal for him to carry the gun on school grounds because the school is a "Gun Free Zone."
3. It was already illegal for him to discharge the gun in a public place.
4. It was already illegal for him to shoot people with that gun.
