The corruption and criminality of the present administration is outrageous. We should meet it with cool-headed reconstructive determination -- and yes, anger. My latest on Substack substack.com/home/post/p-...

I’m done teaching until Fall 2026!

This is astonishing.

So not “42”?

They are a bit more cakey—they don’t flatten out as much

Well-deserved!

Good ol’ Tollhouse chocolate chip (but with twice the baking soda and slightly undercooked)

I wonder if we will also be delayed for de-icing.

My fake flight is delayed by almost an hour. The bus is awaiting clearance to get to the gate. Flight control is probably like, “Dude, you’re a bus, WTF.”

My “flight” is a bus…which I could have discovered by reading the fine print but, you know, booking something called a “flight” and choosing seats on an image shaped like a plane encourages certain expectations. Hard eye roll, #AmericanAirlines.

Predictable :(

That guy is messed up

I loved that film!

Fuck it. I’m in a mood. Let’s do another Saturday with Camus.

Awesome! Congratulations and I hope it fully pans out!

Might this be related to the thing that, a few weeks ago, you said you put yourself out there for? In any case, hoping this and the other thing turn out well for you.

I hope you’ll get your thing!

What happened?

I can’t understand a parent shouting in rapid succession from the sidelines at a soccer game “Go! Go! Stay! Stay! Go!” How does one follow that instruction?

Frustrating indeed!

Omg, this is awful.

How scary! Hope all is well now, or will be soon.

Hope you’ll feel better soon!
