Years ago I got up at a public forum to talk about how Shreveport's Confederate monument was actually a monument to white supremacy an an old white lady followed me and said "Where did that history professor get his PhD from, Berkeley?!?!?" and let me tell you the crowd went wild (I did not get my PhD at Berkeley. I have never even been to Berkeley! It seems very nice though)

This is your Second Amendment rights in action They're going to sell more guns from this, no question. And no one's going to stop them because gun capitalism remains undefeated

Was very lucky to get 2% last year, after years of no raises. Maybe another 2% this year! Fingers crossed! Even with tenure and raises, I make $5,000 less now than I did when I was hired (in 2022 dollars)
