The Radical Report Card · transparency as the flex

I'll show you mine.

Some powerful people fought tooth and nail to keep their grades hidden. The house's move is the exact opposite: show them on purpose — the A's, the C's, all of it. Not because the grades are impressive, but because the willingness is. That's the own-goal, and it's scored on yourself, gladly.

The bit, plainly. In sworn 2019 congressional testimony, Michael Cohen said Donald Trump had directed him to threaten Trump's schools and the College Board not to release his grades or SAT scores. Whatever you make of it, the instinct is secrecy. So the funniest, most on-brand flex this house can make is the inverse: radical, voluntary transparency — a real person publishing his own transcript, warts and all, because he has nothing to hide and a point to make.

And it's Albion. The curator went to Albion College — a real liberal-arts college in Albion, Michigan — and is proud of it. (There's an Albion Purple & Gold skin on the theme slider, too.) Good school, good story, no notes.

left blank for his own hand — the machine won't fake a transcript, and won't publish one it doesn't have.

When you add it, redact the sensitive bits — like this:
Student ID: · DOB: · address & signature:
Keep the grades, lose the identity-theft fuel.
The honest counsel (because you asked if it's a good idea). Yes — it's funny and dead-on-brand. But a raw transcript is a doxxing kit: it can carry your student/SSN-style ID, date of birth, home address, and signature. Publishing those is a gift to identity thieves and never comes back off the web. So do the bit the smart way: post a redacted copy (grades visible, identifiers blacked out), or just a screenshot of the GPA line. The willingness is the whole joke — you don't have to hand over the keys to your identity to land it. Per the one rule: no faked transcript, and per plain caution: no self-doxxing.
⚖️ Lawyer needed (the Counsel Paradox). Before a real transcript goes public, it's worth a five-minute legal/privacy once-over — what's safe to show, and how to frame the named jab cleanly. The curator can pull his actual transcript PDF straight from Albion's registrar (anyone can request their own records — so could he; that's the entire point). The catch is the house's standing Counsel Paradox: real advice costs money he doesn't have yet. Pro-bono counsel welcome. Until a human lawyer signs off, this page holds the bit and the blank — honest, and un-sued.
