Trying to figure out what I want to do in Chicago while I'm there in May - I don't have a ton of time but I do have about a day free to explore, so I'll have to get what I can in while I'm there. I'm so excited for CAKE!

I am pleasantly surprised to see local TV news in Boston covering the issue of blocked bike lanes. Frankly, bike lane stories year-round should focus on safety like this article does.

It's so funny (sob) how I wrote this and then literally two days later, they were like, get your stuff and get packing, everybody, we're letting a couple thousand people go and I had no job.
My job at the hospital is to support *all* researchers, not just one lab, through web and communications efforts, things like building websites, having poster sessions, creating digital infrastructure (like comms channels during earliest days of COVID for collaboration PPE, ECMO, masks, tests, etc.)

I went to college for criminology and criminal justice and used to do research into law enforcement misconduct as part of my education and have been working on zines lately that through that lens - I've got a zine examining scams and how race and gender play a part I'll have out soon. Also this:
This Place is a Prison - an examination of former prisons and jails that have been transformed into something new, how we engage with those spaces and whether it is possible to do so ethically or not. $8 www.radiatorcomics.com/shop/uncateg...

Doing a bit of a reorganization of my office, retiring one of my displays from tabling and using it as a paint rack permanently. Also, got a cupcake stand at the thrift store and turned it into an organizer for my inks and watercolor paints.

Celebrate Valentine’s Day like an art person should. A zine fair, an exhibition on sex and cults, and an on-demand love note written by a poet at the Brooklyn Museum are a few recommendations we have for a truly satisfying weekend.

I was curious and looked, I applied for a job there in early May, got the automated app confirmation and then nothing, but proceeded to get weekly LI postings of various roles that all seem to have exceedingly similar job descriptions and what feels like some A/B testing going on for the job titles

When we were evaluating them at the hospital I worked at over a decade ago, surgeons tried them and the response was "I guess I could see how this could be useful with a lot of caveats, but it's a lot easier to see how it will be terrible and make us look like assholes and creeps" and that was that.
I keep bringing up Googleglass because it’s a reminder that widespread opprobrium is still a useful tool. If your friend says he plans on buying them, tell him they are for creeps. If someone shows up to your party with them, ask them to leave. Brand these as a product for losers and pervs.

Of course it's Whoop. I've never seen more ghost jobs by a single company in Boston than Whoop and it's like do the jobs exist? Are you trying to artificially show growth and activity by posting jobs you never hire for just for data collection purposes? Who knows!
“Thursday’s event, held at the Kenmore Square headquarters of Whoop … was the official kickoff of the new Massachusetts AI Coalition. The private sector initiative describes its mission as making Boston ‘the most welcoming city in America’ for entrepreneurs working on new AI startups.’”

The fact that my "official" last day was also Valentine's Day just feels like... really? I gotta get dumped by a JOB? Ridiculous.
