He's supposed to be a villian for the Star Fleet: Academy show. I hope he's just some alien with tenure that the Academy has to work around
I think that's right.
Even in US military films, they often make efforts to separate the decisions of the state from the individuals completing the mission.
The Italian movie shows an axis power, positioning the war as a tragic loss.
Apologies if I responded to the wrong post--I thought your comment was interesting and relevant.
(Congratulations on both. I bought your book yesterday after hearing your interview with @adriandaub.bsky.social and Laura Goode)

It's gotta be so weird to run for VP right now. You have to create enough noise to be noticed but not so much that you might outshine the top of the ticket.
It's in the same pattern of claiming the unearned moral authority of the founders, abolitionists, or MLK.
It's fascinating how quickly the knives come out when you show an ounce of compassion.
Well deserved, Helen. Your work and your writing is so good. Congratulations.

I'd mute "moot" and "moots," but I like lawsky
I really hope indexing with altmetric is around the corner here

I'm really proud of this chief class. They're going to be stellar ENTs
I just got the best award I've ever received. My residents voted me faculty of the year.
My first R01 gets reviewed tomorrow. I know I shouldn't be nervous, but goodness.
I would still like the grid to connect to the rest of the country.
Not going to lie, I was fascinated with Huey P. Long when I lived in Louisiana
Well, this is a good take

sometimes I just feel so happy that I get to share my apartment with a weird little monster that loves me
It's an exciting time, but you've got to take your Ws where you can!
I was Paris when we invaded Iraq and it was one of the most surreal experiences of my life
