If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP.

A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify.

Iโ€™m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

The aws outage and canvas. The gift that keeps on giving. Still getting requests to take the exam late (due last Monday night) because โ€œcanvas is glitchingโ€. So I donโ€™t have any reason to accept the โ€œcanvas is glitchingโ€ story as 95/100 people successfully submitted the exam.

Yes. Itโ€™s annoying that many of us who have been boycotting Amazon have been using canvas unaware of its dependence on the evil empire

So canvas LMS. Youโ€™ve really, really screwed up with my classes exam due tonight. Fix this mess now. Less techbro posting and more work.

See? It works just as well for social media!

Isnโ€™t social media a kind of minefield? Any advice? Do tell

Probably. He just snuck in for the picture. Itโ€™s a pretty inclusive group? You wanna join, sure why not?

The sad thing is that I donโ€™t know where I would hang with planetary science peeps without LPSC. It would be like the demise of science twitter. Nothing since has quite worked.

I dislike it that people can add things to my calendar that I canโ€™t then modify. Even worse when they add something that causes the calendar to repeatedly crash. ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿคฌ๐Ÿ˜ก

Of course I had to send a copy to @theplanetaryguy.bsky.social just to poke the bear.

I deleted all Adobe software from my computer long ago. They have been a bad company for a long time. The best punishment I can think of for Adobe is that they be condemned to use their own software.

You know it is the week before the beginning of the term when you start getting emails from administrators you have never heard of before with yet another mandatory thing you have to do with no release of anything to make it possible to do it. Time to retire.

The โ€œwell trained dogโ€ phrase is wholly appropriate for some.

The debate over a science only education is not new. It has been going on for a long time. This is the thought of one of the premier scientists of his time. I found this version free of a paywall.

This is not the quality of pseudoscience infotainment to which I have grown accustomed Teasing the public with fraudulent or self-deluded promises of aliens used to mean something. It took work. It meant slapping togetherโ€ฆ
