Dogs, bikes, beer, tattoos, and sometimes academic libraries. (Not in that order.) Silly goose on the loose and proud union member. I put the “assy” in sassy. No TERFS! Always Carry A Book
For the record, everything about the Postal Service is cool as hell, and everyone who doesn't support it is a loser who sucks.
Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."
Genuinely curious if the DOGE bros just thought they could pull a bunch of wires out of the walls, gleefully ruining/ending various lives, and then live long and prosperous existences free of being relentlessly owned online
Encinitas is packed full of the "my dog is friendly" crowd, unfortunately. ARGLE-BARGLE.
I don't care if gas prices get up to $20 a gallon! I'll still drink a big glass of it with breakfast every morning!
I'm about to start carrying a looong heavy stick on these walks. This particular house is on a well-trafficked corner so you would think that they would be more cautious....But entitlement is a hell of a drug. (They also have 6-8 cars that are all out on the street. I'm not a fan!)
owner stood there telling me that "they're really friendly!" and I am trying to tell her that my dog Pixie is NOT friendly, the damn dogs got out again. WTF? Keep your damn dogs inside your property or on a leash!
I did NOT need for two off leash dogs to come charging at me and my dogs when we were out on our walk! My older girl is reactive, particularly when a dog comes running directly at her. I got to be that neighbor yelling "HELP! HELP!" until folks came out and caught the dogs. Then, while their
Oh, Violet! I am so sorry. I really hope that something opens up for you soon!
Horrible that this is happening! I am glad that it is spring break at least.
Spotted this on a pole behind independence hall. I recently saw someone say they found collage to be the best way to work through things and I didn’t really see it at the time but
It’s so ridiculous and unnecessary. (And thanks, friend!)
Follow policy and best practices. You may not like the process, but tough shit. I have been nothing but kind and calm in my responses, but this person is about to be iced out until they provide me with the information I need to process their request. #BeKindOrEatShit
Why do people feel entitled to be shitty to folks who work at public entities? Someone had emailed me multiple times with a request, and I have followed up with some clarification questions. Their responses are increasingly shitty and hostile, so I am going to stop responding. Look, I have to 1/2
Today’s #SmallGoodThing: my toe is finally healed up enough for me to take longer walks. I did two miles this afternoon before it started barking and aching a bit. Walking really helps my mental state, so this is a welcome change.
Anyone who argues that AI can do your research for you was not the one who did all the work in the group project
Currently 55 outside but there is a heat advisory starting today, so that should be fun. Good luck to all in the Western US that will deal with the heat dome: www.cnn.com/2026/03/12/w...
I hope they lose spectacularly and have to pay out a lot of money. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving company. Yeet Grammarly directly into the sun!
Valerie, there will be NO FUN in the library! NONE! Don't even think about having fun!
This doesn't make any sense. Why not allow game playing? This seems like an arbitrary and fun-killing rule. BLERGH.
Awake and feeling owly and the neighborhood coyotes are really yipping it up! I’ve never heard them this active or this close by!
Venn diagram of people who are closely following what’s going on and people who are healthy and taking care of themselves is vanishingly small, but let’s get some good sleep and try and make it bigger
goodnight to everyone trying to stay human
Today’s #SmallGoodThing: Gracie is healed enough to go get groomed! The groomer left her eyebrows, her little mohawk, and some of her ear feathers. She just might have to come to campus with me tomorrow!
The library is packed today! It makes me so happy to walk around and see all the different ways that people are using the space. Studying, writing, sleeping, catching up with friends, making something in the makery, or heating up lunch in the student "break room."
Join us in the #CUNYVerse! @brooklyncollege.bsky.social is seeking a new Chief Librarian and Associate Dean in the library! #CUNYbrarians are the best and you should be one too!

It is completely insane that they are putting people's names into their paid product as "experts" without their knowledge. And Grammarly's response is to say people can OPT OUT?? There's not even a definitive list to see if you're on it.
Tonight’s #SmallGoodThing: listening to the neighborhood kids play hide and seek outside our place. My office window is open and I can hear all their whispering and running around. The cutest! 🥹💜💚
Fascinating
