I’m sorry. I hope you don’t internalize it too much, as it’s so often not about us. But it’s awfully hard to not normalize it (says the middle aged, unpartnered, only child orphan who has admirers and quasi-fans but few real connections, at least where I live.) Hope you enjoyed my glass of whine.

So kind of you, thanks! I was really going for retro vibes on that and to show her effervescence , as opposed to the depressive side we all know too well (and some of us more than others. I’m glad you like it.

Thank you so much…I’m embarrassed about the typo and displeased with BlueSky for keeping the most annoying feature of X, i.e the inability to edit.

The destruction of the #DepartmentofEducation is yet another classic authoritarian early step. Keep the masses ignorant, uninformed, and manipulable. Let the worst performing states choose to perform even worse.

Disappointed at #ColumbiaUniversity’s capitulation to #Trump on Middle Eastern studies and free speech protocols. This will result in a chilling effect on universities nationwide. Academia is traditionally among the first victims of authoritarianism.
