I used to waste years preparing gourmet meals. It was creative, an expression of my humanity, and fostered zen.

Professor Doug Rendleman has passed away.

A sad day at @wlulaw.bsky.social. Doug Rendleman was one of a kind—a rigorous and prolific scholar, a dedicated teacher and mentor to his students, and an influential figure in the world of remedies. My sympathies and condolences to Carol, Doug’s spouse of 65 years, and the entire Rendleman family.

OU is not doing enough to protect academic freedom on campus after the targeted attacks on Mel Curth.

“We are gravely concerned that a climate of escalating authoritarian assaults on academic freedom is normalizing politicized interference in classroom teaching.”

I find it extremely difficult to believe that anyone experiencing what honestly looks like the apocalypse is going to regard it as a form of liberation or that anyone responsible for it actually cares about how Iranians regard it at all.
