Sunday Morning

Earlier link dumps this week: 1, 2, 3, 4.

* CUNY Administration Declares War On Rebel English Department. This is stunning. Here’s just a little bit more.

* Education is a political act. For over half a century, the conservative movement has waged a political war on liberal arts education. They have waged this war because they know that without the skills we are provided by a liberal arts education citizens must abdicate our power.

* Well, I certainly wasn’t going to be the one to say it.

* The FBI has successfully thwarted another bomb plot they organized and outfitted. Promotions all around!

* Old games are horrifying.

* Portraits of Sad Superheroes.
