1638536409962217477 | At close to a “100% vaccination rate” and “85% booster rate”, it now becomes a “personal decision” so @USC will drop C19 vaccine mandates for fall. It is good news but it should have always been a personal decision. The mandate did nothing to stop the spread on campus. https://t.co/MFaqg4osBQ | 121 |
1639116934401740800 | @POTUS Please don't use conservative extremist words like "woman." The preferred term from Les Biens-Pensants at @USC and similar top schools is uterus havers. As your latest Justice explained, non-biologists should not throw around technical terms like "woman." [I'll retweet.] | 66 |
1640816783031681025 | The Africana Research Cluster @USC is thrilled to host Prof. Hilda Lloréns for a virtual talk on her award-winning book, Making Livable Worlds: Afro-Puerto Rican Women Building Environmental Justice. Join us on Friday, 3/31 @ 12 PM PST via Zoom! RSVP at https://t.co/E2FP6xCGxS https://t.co/eFKra6MthM | 34 |

1640525238805966849 | The misgendering is the truly unforgivable crime here. Recall the @usc guy who claimed that the govt should regulate my speech if I say men can’t get pregnant. https://t.co/6CgIuRZGW0 | 28 |
1641099778842071040 | Jury deliberations continue this morning in suspended Los Angeles City Councilman Mark Ridley-Thomas’ @USC bribery trial. As I explain, prosecutors are concerned jurors may be confused by a poorly worded instruction. https://t.co/kknPK06QOZ | 26 |
1638660134711746561 | This can't be true @RichardDawkins because the super smart audience members at @USC were very very very very very very very very upset with me when I stated that men cannot bear children. https://t.co/MlZJZoNhp1 | 21 |
1641184071664676864 | Coming up in April: This amazing "Encountering Alice in Japan" conference hosted by Dr. Rebecca Corbett @USC! 😮🍄🐛 It's free and open to the public, but RSVP is required.

1640317288644505603 | And I know this to be true because the super smart progressive people at my @USC talk chastized me for having originally suggested otherwise. One individual even suggested that my speech should be regulated by the government for stating that men can't get pregnant. | 19 |

1638985959219011585 | I’ll miss the @bookcritics prize ceremony in NYC tonight, but I wish all my fellow Barrios nominees — and especially @jenniferlcroft — luck! My excuse is that I’ll be appearing @USC, in sporadically rainy LA. Come join us if you can! https://t.co/Ob1VWkpYO9 | 108 |
