Pffft. I loved those. Read the Brit and Am lit ones cover to cover. They’re like having a personal mini-library.

Well, after ruining humankind with that whole apple debacle, this other stuff comes easily to us.

β€œwake the hell up” is too close to β€œwoke,” and I’m pretty sure that the woke mind virus is the only one folks are allowed to get vaccinated against these days

My employer said to take its name off our social media profiles, so I changed mine to β€œOld lady academic with no more Fs left to give, short on filters and patience.”

We had it all those years before selling. Don’t regret that at all. I don’t believe the guy in the story has no regrets about his dumdum rezoning plan.

Our uni admins chastise us for even broaching such a question.

At Everglades detention camp, we have let evil in. Now the question is, 'How far will evil go?' The lesson here is not about the 'final solution' but how things start.

"The lesson here is not about the 'final solution' but how things start."

A reflection by me and @tbhallock.bsky.social from our time in Germany, as we head back to Florida.

If Jolly becomes Florida's governor, how will he differ from his predecessor in terms of higher education? I'm thinking specifically about SB 266's impact on accreditation, general education, and funding for anything on college campuses generally deemed "woke."

Frances McDormand, early 2000s, in a ladies’ room. Shocked to see her, I blurted out, I love you! She said, well that’s not the strangest thing someone’s said to me in the bathroom. Lol.

Jorts, the kind one wears not the kind one pets, are huge in northern Europe right now. I think it must be in homage to you.

Thank you for this thread. Everglades mosquitoes are brutal all year long, and now is high season.

Effing TENTS. In the Everglades, the hottest, buggiest, most reptile infested place in the US, during hurricane season. Criminal.
