Late-diagnosed ADHD, elder millennial, tired af. LIS, data, and tech in many combinations are cool. I have a tuxedo cat named Darwin and he's the best.

I like things a completely normal amount.

I am once again asking for somebody to pay me a sufficient amount to live on in exchange for my labor.

Things I can do:
* analyze data and tell you what it means
* help your customers/clients
* support your technicals
* write things down/make better words
* improve your processes

Hit me up!

My favorite moment in zootopia 2 was when Nick the Fox put on a tux to go undercover and the 20-something behind me whispered to her friend, “smash.”

For a relaxing day off, I used to just, take public transportation, and wander. All day, I’d ride the rails. With a library book, some podcasts, I’d just vibe all day.

Sometimes I’d have a destination, sometimes I just wanted to see what’s out there.

I’d like to be able to do that again someday.

They had some Shine Muscat grapes at the Asian grocery store. They weren't terribly expensive ($6 for 600g) but they were enforcing a one per customer limit.

They're nice grapes, definitely better than the grocery store, but they're not, like extraordinary

LOL, there's a dickhead out there who thinks Booktok invented the romance genre.

The main thing that's annoying and offensive about this is it's usually not framed as simply a factual observation about all the obvious hurdles, as if anybody needs reminding. It's how it's said in a mood of cynical, condescending hostility to even advocating for accountability. Ditto impeachment.
While this usually isn't the intent, "no one will ever be held accountable for this" doomerism is an excuse not to try.

There'll be at least some accountability if enough Americans work for it. And this time really is different. Doesn't guarantee the aftermath will be, but it increases the chances.

Once again an accessibility reminder from your favorite dog in the entire universe:

If you use the spooky demonic looking text, this is what screen readers see. It is not understandable! It is not fun having to ask a friend to look at it and translate!

BTW, it says “everything must be monetized”

There have long been rumors that the Skull and Bones fraternity house in New Haven contains the skull of Apache leader Geronimo.

A researcher unearthed a letter in 2006 that seemed to corroborate that claim.

I found two more letters in Yale’s archives, along with more corroborating evidence.
While we’re on the topic:

Letters I found in Yale archives said Skull and Bones members took Native American remains from a grave in Oklahoma in 1918.

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

and you know what? these students should also be judged, and judged harshly for this. running to the admins and state legislators and the press because you got a fairly earned failing grade on an assignment is and should be seen as a mark of extremely poor character. it makes you a very bad person.
the primary thing that TPUSA provides to young conservatives is a blueprint for weaponizing the abject cowardice of university administrators against individual teachers and instructors, and university admins should take a long look in the mirror and think about what that says about them
OU has put the professor here on administrative leave:
