Lit the menorah a bit early tonight to try to catch a picture of it lit with the pretty sunset. Couldn’t quite get my phone to take the shot in my head, but it’s still REALLY picturesque 😍

Hilariously I only scored a 19 because I never had an AOL email, I started off with a Hotmail account 😂
Perfect score of 20 for myself. What about YOU? #OldAsDirt

I LOVE D&D SO MUCH - one of our rogues just confused the dark spirit attempting to possess them by asking if they said yes, they could open up a pastry shop. "No ... you'll need to kill and take blood." "But I don't want blood, I just want an apple turnover?" BEST GAME EVER.

Reading over one of my students' military transcripts to make the case that he didn't need to take our welding class, and this guy was ALSO certified in sewing machine use and repair by the Navy. Which makes sense as a skill that you'd need, but I AM DELIGHTED BY THIS MARINE SEWING SAILS OR WHATNOT.

In a world where emerging sexualities are dismissed as “made up,” “online-only,” or “Western inventions,” seeing ace identities emerge across continents is a reminder of what so many asexual people already know:

Asexuality is everywhere.

After my mom spent 40 years working for P&G, I just automatically categorize consumer products into P&G and Not P&G. So after HBO served me two commercial breaks of P&G stuff, I’m just going to call Heated Rivalry an old school soap opera now 😂

On the one hand, I know some of this is PMS, but also I do feel like tears are a proportional reaction to this film? Lovely, moving, do rec but only if you’re in a place to be sad about the Great Barrier Reef. Like we’ve made strides since the doc came out in 2017, but it’ll never be the same.

So I’m watching this documentary because I DO enjoy a good trashy docuseries and like. I’m halfway through and I just keep about how none of these people seem to realize how little we know about the geography of the ocean??? MAYBE THERE IS A COVERUP BUT I PROMISE A PLANE CAN DISAPPEAR.

Hilariously, both of the movies that came to mind were ones that I watched for my master's thesis that came out in 1998, but for COMPLETELY opposite reasons. When Trumpets Fade was a very GOOD movie, but I still have nightmares about it. The Thin Red Line was absolute SHIT, fuck you Terrance Malick.
Never mind movies you’ve watched multiple times, name a movie you’ve watched once and would never watch again.

*whispers* Y'all, you should totally get this collection - it's only $2 today, and you'll get (in addition to the two books that the TV series is pulling from) the book that is tied with book six for my favorite book in the series. I LOVE RYAN AND FABIAN SO MUCH IT HURTS

Went w/ the fam to see a family friend play in the community band, a concert I used to attend every year but haven’t been in at LEAST 20 years. Watching D do the CLAP in Sleigh Ride is just as much fun as I remembered 😂 (Some of the rest was more Jesus than I wanted, but you can’t have everything?)

I love stumbling across critiques of whatever the current popular gay m/m romance novel is by gay men. It’s always “you can tell it was written for women by women because {reason that basically boils down to “gay men aren’t monogamous”} SPOILER. I KNOW MANY WOMEN WHO ALSO DON’T WANT MONOGAMY!

til (because as a former Catholic I NEVER had any reason to crack Revelation and now that I’m Jewish, I have even LESS of a reason) one of the churches that book was written as a letter to was the church in a city named PHILADELPHIA. I am cackling so hard rn. Sorry Philly, I guess you’re doomed 😂😂😂

… Kindle, I have some questions. Don’t get me wrong, No More Tears was one of the best non-fiction books I read last year and I DO think you could get valuable business tips from it. But. Uh. SOMEHOW I DOUBT THAT’S THE VIBE THIS AD IS GOING FOR

I’ve got that last line as a wrist tattoo, partially b/c of the fic that introduced me to the poem, which ALSO lives rent free in my brain. 😍

Truly. Even Kip (the twinkiest twink to ever twink) has become a twunk. Dear Jacob, I THINK YOU HAVE A TYPE 😂😂😂 (But also this MAY be the first time I’ve ever been invested in any of the characters in the New York books, so I’m also not complaining. Whatever Jacob Tierney wants is fine by me!)
Heated Rivalry feels like (and i do NOT mean this as a criticism) a propaganda film for the concept of twunks.

tbqh, BLESS THE HEARTS OF ALL OF MY STUDENTS WHO CAN'T READ AN APPOINTMENT CALENDAR. I had one student who made an appointment for Tuesday come in today and another one who had an appointment on NOVEMBER 5 come in and I just. Oh you sweet summer children, please figure this out before graduation.

Why do I read negative reviews of things that I like? Like. There's nothing to be GAINED by bumming myself out, and I haven't been in grad school for well over a decade at this point, it's not like I need to keep up on ~discourse~ for that reason either! *thwaps self on the nose with newspaper*

"But they're in college, why do they even need an academic advisor at that age?" (BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TELL YOU THAT NOT EVERYONE HAS PARENTS WHO WENT TO COLLEGE/HAS THE SUPPORT THEY NEED TO COMPLETE THEIR DEGREE. GOD.)
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

I know this isn’t even the 10th most interesting part about The Ninth House, but the fact that Yale irl has a college named after the Sinners In The Hands Of An Angry God guy is just continuing the trend of me trying and failing to figure out WHAT IS YOUR CHILDHOOD TRAUMA IVY LEAGUES?!

One episode into Heated Rivalry and I’ve already lost track of the times that I’ve said “Ilya, you are SUCH a little shit.” All is right with the world, god I’m so happy to see this book get this adaptation \0/

tw:suicide Watching a documentary over breakfast and like. I really don’t judge anyone for dying by suicide, there but for the grace of God go I. HOWEVER. I feel like it’s not a symptom of mental illness, but instead a jackass choice, to throw yourself off a bridge in front of your wife & daughter.
