      Something a bit more anodyne.

      Just a bit...

      Dr. Tosca is at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) where she teaches...

      ...climate science.

      At the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

      D1 went to SAIC - I don't think climate science was in her curriculum, but I might be wrong.

      Dr. Mika...

      Kind of a Mulvaney vibe going, no?

      Yeah...

      Def a Mulvaney vibe.

      Apology...

      “Yesterday I wrote some things on my Instagram story that I unequivocally reject and do not stand behind,” Tosca wrote.

      “I am deeply sorry for writing what I wrote, and for hurting many people with my words, and I am especially sorry to Israeli people that I broadly placed at fault for the war.”

                  I don't understand how anyone with an institutional role that is publicly visible posts political shit on social media. I never did post political shit except for our little hideout here, and now as chair of the Foundation I'm even more careful.

                                    I don't see a problem with CNN asking that kind of question. It's not up to them so support a side, and they're supposed to ask questions. Hopefully Tim Scott managed to answer it.

                                    I was only joking

                                      There's a question that the BBC probably never asked.

                                        We are in a moment when the emotional content of conversation is being litigated, rather than the logical content of the conversation. We're always in that moment to some extent, but firmly in it about Israel now. Since people are getting murdered due to emotional content of the words they've heard through their lives, I guess this is necessary. A "just asking questions" defense is not very compelling from that perspective.

                                        Education is extremely important.
