"Video captured by News 9 showed the moment #Orleck was arrested by police during the protest. She said she was among a handful of professors who showed up to support students at what she called a peaceful protest until law enforcement arrived in #RiotGear.
"'And it's really shameful in a sleepy little campus, in a rural area like Dartmouth, that they brought in this ridiculous show of arms and strength and violence,' she said.
"She also wanted to address Gov. #ChrisSununu calling the protests against the war in #Gaza#antisemitic. She said she's a #Jewish woman and did not feel safe after last night's police response.
"'As a Jewish woman of an age that I grew up in a neighborhood full of #Holocaust survivors and knew Holocaust survivors, I have to say that I think this is disingenuous,' she said. 'It's a weaponizing of #antisemitism for their own #political purposes, which is to #SuppressDissent. And if, in fact, as the governor and the college president said, the point is to make the campus safer for the Jewish community members, I have to say that what happened next made it decidedly less safe for all of us.'
"Orleck, who has been a professor at Dartmouth for more than three decades, said as part of her bail condition, she is being banned from Dartmouth's campus. She said her emails to the institution have gone unanswered."
Totality in Colebrook, NH was the most incredible experience. Truly magical and awe-inspiring. Even though I (mostly) understand the science it was hard to believe it was actually happening in real time. People spontaneously applauded at the end, myself included.
If you ever have the opportunity to witness a total eclipse you must. Pictures and videos don't come close to doing it justice.
So I saw this on Mastodon yesterday and was like "is this a scam?" and then looked at the IRS website and holy shit the IRS is piloting a direct filing program!
So if you're located in Arizona, California, Florida, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, or Wyoming search 'IRS Direct File' or follow the link cause jfc I want them to continue this
