Well, I think for most of this time I was under the impression that you were a tenured prof, so I've no doubt I was just seeing the future and you'll get there!

I read "old" fic ALL the time, because while it was new and hot I was immersed in writing my dissertation (what can I say? I'm no @clairegregoryau.bsky.social). Now I'm catching up, and loving it all. I rarely comment, but I leave kudos all the time--and now you've inspired me to comment more often!

I too have copy editor / college English teaching background (but don't use the Discord). Never been a beta reader, would like to start.

@longmayheroam.bsky.social : omg, gravy basket is exactly the way to describe grading essays!!! I feel less like a guide than a fellow trapped victim, though.

This person in the fandom just finished her PhD and fully expects you to crush yours while also continuing to be widely loved in and out of the fandom!

Agreed--to some extent, they're ALL security threats. It's just interesting how the media so willingly memory-holed the actual instigating incident of the "TikTok is a threat" claim.

(As you know), TikTok is no more of a security threat than Facebook or "X" or any other social media. Trump made the decision to ban it after TikTok kids snapped up free tickets to one of his 2016 rallies in order to leave him yammering to an empty arena. 100% thin-skinned spite and nothing else.

How do people just ... have energy? Even in my head those last two words sound like I'm awkwardly repeating a foreign phrase I don't understand.

I have a couple of close friends in government, and yes, they are quietly sabotaging everything in their power and reaching out to others to help

A pattern on an embroidery hoop. It features 7 different knives with the words "no spoons left only knives " written around them. The pattern is drawn in blue washable pencil.

And now to start a needlepoint project for a friend.

Thank you! OFMD cross stitch is a definite 2025 goal of mine.

β€˜The ghosts are everywhere’: can the British Museum survive its omni-crisis? Beset by colonial controversy, difficult finances and the discovery of a thief on the inside, Britain’s most visited museum is in deep trouble. Can it restore its reputation?

It is a sprawling, chaotic reflection of Britain’s psyche over 300 years: its voracious curiosity and cultural relativism; its pugnacious superiority complex; its restless seafaring and trading; its cruel imperial enrichment; ... its postcolonial anxiety.

What software (or are you some kind of terrifying Excel-only genie)??? I love OFMD and cross stitch, but have had no success trying to create patterns--which is to say, you Etsy, me spend-y.

Bookmarked and subscribed! I literally just finished a Golden Age Hollywood novel and read a couple of others last year, so I'm primed.
