Literal tears I'm laughing so hard.

Please respect my privacy at this time. My new Champion reverse weave zip hoodie arrived.

The age old question of "is he handsome or just tall?"

I suspect a high percentage of librarians fall into the 40% of students who learn to read no matter how they’re taught.

Don't be jealous but I completed a task today that's been on my to do list since the last week of August.

I should write one for my toxic former colleague. Left us just to get fired from a different library.

Scott Bessent sends me over the edge.

“She got one of ✌🏿them✌🏿”

Does she have healthcare?
Is there a roof over her head?
Does he have food on his table?

A sex worker has never kidnapped an immigrant

Denied snap benefits

Or blown up Venezuelan fishermen

Just yesterday, I told my BIL we weren't coming to OKC for Christmas due to the shutdown chaos.

I can't believe the assignment I pulled out of the air was confusing to students.

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

It's the trait I want most to encourage in my students.

I am a man of the people… if there are no gay people involved i don’t wanna participate

It doesn’t matter what I think. Also, none of this would ever happen. But if I had a zillion dollars:

1. Run a “we do hard things” campaign across southern and rust belt states. Invest heavily in local, state and regional social infrastructure. Sponser later hours at a library, build a skate park…

New (dare I say spicy?) Guest Editorial just dropped. Co-written with @meganmk.bsky.social

My favorite thing about her is that she's been an ambassador and cheerleader for the character of Wonder Woman for almost fifty years now. She never stopped being that girl

My students read this. They really don’t like the idea of their work going into an LLM and they want professors to be transparent about how AI will be used or not used in class.

We read Star, the Enquirer, and People every week. I got up early to watch him marry Fergie!

No, you’re the one who was “on” and being funny for the person observing my pcp visit, not me! Sometimes the youngest child in me comes out swinging.

Please respect my privacy in this moment as I cry over a student actually using a hanging indent. 🤣

Apparently I woke up and decided to set a new personal record for how many tabs I can have open that are D2L. I'm grading an assignment where I need to see what they did the previous assignment and what I said about what they did. Plus the usual tabs when grading.

I'm reading The Eagle & The Hart by Helen Castor. It's about Richard II & Henry IV. This passage was LOL: To no one's surprise, the French proved unwilling to pause their preparations for war while Richard tried to kill his uncle and assault his archbishop.

This past week I've spent time pulling ephemera off our shelves in the Zs. Begone 3-ring binders and spiral bound documents! Also, random tiny pamphlets about libraries in other states from the 80s and 90s are outta here!

Thanks for sharing this. I'm alerting our Dean's Office of this issue.

With all the bad shit going on, this is a mid-complaint. I am angry that CBS gave Michael Weatherly another show.

I believe in redemption in a great many cases, but it has to include regret, which you signal by doing all you can to reduce the harm as soon as possible.

The Jolly Roger flag

Apparently some folks are playing real dumb about skull symbols so let’s play a little game I like to call “Nazi skull or not a Nazi skull”

First up, the Jolly Roger. This is a pirate skull, not a Nazi skull. It means you might get robbed, but prolly not genocided.

With me so far? 1/x

Too cute. I have no defense against Cookie Monster interacting with people. Can't stop smiling!

Left a webinar discussion immediately because they started us off in breakout rooms.

Harper, I'm looking at you! Queen of the "how did you get there?" cats.
