Overly dramatic anxious Gen Xer who likes dogs and is generally tired and cranky. Gaymer πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ geek husband who believes that black, trans, and queer lives matter. Currently in Jersey cuz it’s blue, cynical, and over your bullshit.

Wow. Just spent an hour or so on the new Civ VII. Why does each iteration have to be so much more complex. It seems a bit overkill.

For the next four years, my mental health will require no less than 2 major vacations a year. Either #aruba or #curacao in May.

That moment when you finish the dishes and decide not to tackle laundry cuz you don’t need to be a fucking hero…

Were they ever? I’ve been in higher ed most of my career and shared governance as always been important, but it would be impossible to actually turn over all decision making to the masses. It could never be a true democracy.

It may be true for some universities, but not all. Constantly holding up the top 7 or 10 universities as examples only hurts the hundreds of other institutions that don’t operate in the same way. Higher ed isn’t a monolith.

Do you have a preference between the islands? It’s more expensive to travel to CuraΓ§ao, but cheaper to stay there. It’s the opposite in Aruba- cheap to get there and expensive to stay.

Debating booking a July trip to #Aruba. Is it too hot there in July?

Scooby-Doo taught us that, in the end, the monsters are always people.

Nothing represents the holidays better than a completely chaotic airport.

Do what you want over the holidays. If you want to stay traditional, have at it. If you wanna go to a pansexual sex party, good for you. If you’d rather smash the patriarchy, cheers! As we crash into 2025, just know there is no playbook. We’re all making this shit up as we go. Be kind to yourself.

Even when I lived in red states no one has batted an eye. It’s sad if
folks allow that to manifest towards a patient’s family.

My toxic trait is that I will guess less common words every time in word games even knowing that they’re designed for the massesβ€”- What do you mean the word isn’t fauna???

Why did no one tell me to really dose up on anxiety meds before the final phase of veilguard? Jeez, I hope my Italian accented Crow boyfriend survives.

I think we can be mad as hell about economic disparity, and the accompanying power disparity, particularly as it impacts marginalized and racialized communities, without celebrating the death of individuals who are wealthy. We can both fight and retain our compassion.

The unspoken question on many crime shows: how good was the D that you would kill his wife for him?

Couldn’t sleep- but there is something magical about drinking coffee at 4am in a dark room playing video games.
