I mean... in fairness to Google, wouldn't this be an email address that has almost exclusively emailed a massive chunk of users all at once, without obvious connection, and with exactly identical content? The URL it's sent from doesn't resolve to a webpage, and isn't on the same domain I found attached to other information/copies of the settlement.

That's cool, but I do that too. So don't think you're special, ants!

that the review process “has been activated,” and that the graduate instructor was placed on administrative leave “to ensure fairness.”

In pursuit of fairness, I think it's reasonable to label the Oklahoma University a bigot-friendly institution. Just while the investigation is ongoing, you understand. Certainly this shouldn't be construed as punitive.

I feel like there was a missed opportunity to call it Androgynous or Androgynix.

None of what I said is disagreeing with your point. You're reading into my response opposition that wasn't offered.

If you have $1m, you can draw something like $30-40000 a year reasonably safely. That's obviously a lot of money, but isn't what most people in the mentioned countries think of as "living large" if it's your whole income, especially for a couple/family. That puts you at about the median individual income for Japan and NZ, a bit above in Korea, and below for most of western Europe and Aus.

Obviously that's without working, but that's kinda the point. It's wealth, but not enough that most people in those places would be comfortable not working if that's how much they earned. Hell, in the US that wouldn't even cover childcare for a few kids in many locales.
