But they haven't asked him to resign.

This happened to a friend of mine who was in Puerto Rico over the holidays, when the administration decided to attack Venuzuela. Thousands were stuck without a way home for days. This is much worse, but they can't pretend they didn't know it would happen, because it did happen in teh Caribbean.

I googled the name based on your post! And yes, it brought me to the TUMBLR but nowhere else.

Lovelace is a famous name (Ada), but not the first name, except from mythology. Any chance this is a made up person or stage name?

what even is this AI ghoulishness?!

"Squirter?" He makes it sound like three American soldiers were killed in a super soaker fight.

ooooh, nice!

An Early Meal is a great book -- I use it with my students all the time!

Republic of Doyle (TV Series 2010–2014) ⭐ 7.6 | Comedy, Crime, Drama 1h | TV-14

Not a great tv series but not a terrible one, either. Martin couldn't stop watching it because the accents of some of the actors (esp Allan Hawco, from Newfoundland) were so Irish-sounding. www.imdb.com/title/tt1297...

Love it! Not exactly "authentic Viking food" (because of the nature of our sources), but all the right flavors and textures and a great stab at reconstructing! Looks pretty tasty, too.

I love a well-written recipe, but this one is next level!

Not only will I make these cookies, I will assign the recipe when I teach "creative non-fiction" in my classes.

I grew up in Boston in the 80s. Every year, the Red Sox would start off ok, raising hopes, then tank. Every year my dad would say the same thing "It's ok; this was their rebuilding year." Every year, for two decades, it was a rebuilding year.

Same vibes.

AI sucks

da fuck...?

I don't know if this thing works, but if so, what is teaching any more?

I no longer know how to teach

They are!

There have been dad jokes for as long as there have been dads!

Ooh, my students are reading Forme of Cury right now!

I LOVE ancient D20s!! There are many, and they are sooo pretty.

A box full of cones of hwavy cotton yarn for weaving. Bright red, gold, bright sunshine yellow and white

I solemly swear I am up to some good.

British Museum removes word ‘Palestine’ from some displays Museum revises labelling on maps and panels, saying term used inaccurately and no longer historically neutral

Guardian article (since it won't be deleted).

I can't speak for anyone else, but I'll get a lot more done without the watch party. Maybe another time.

I love it!!
