The one day of the year I can sleep in guilt free and I am wide awake at 6:30. Happy Mother’s Day out there y’all.

Good people. Bad design.

I was wondering about that! I was on crutches last year for Cs and it gave me a new way of seeing these spaces. This space felt nearly impossible. I’m sorry it was.

We should be talking about a plane crash, but instead he says something batshit about DEI and y’all turn the news cycle right back on him. STOP TAKING THE BAIT

Today I took a break from eating chips to have a vigorous swimming workout, and then I returned to eating chips. <— summary of my vibes this week

😂

I've entered some sort of 90s time warp this afternoon and have been solely listening to Ani DiFranco and Tricky. Time to buy some clove cigarettes.

100%. Take for eg I never even heard of an AP class till I got to college (see: rural poverty and public schools). The clueless audacity of some professors is naive and harmful.

This is Nezzy. Aka Nezuko Roxy Kuurola. She is six months old and has a lot of questions for you people. Mostly regarding food.

really good at sending emails. really bad at responding to them.

i never know how much i believe in mercury retrogrades, but I do know in the past few days my water bottle broke, my cell phone shattered, and now my coffee machine is deader than a doornail.

Got a novavax covid booster this morning. Fingers crossed for minimal side effects (last time was negligible!).

beautiful obituary to a life well lived, albeit too f'in short. sending you light and breath.

Enjoy some Bluesky positive vibes (sound on👍) from these juvenile Lake Sturgeon @garlab.bsky.social!

Being in University DEI related meetings this last week has been……unfun. I ended my day today with can of nacho cheese dip. It was all I could muster.

I had to look at the news because this could 100% be real right now.

Had my “promoted to Full Professor” reception tonight. Got a clock. I imagine it will keep track of the time spent on my increased service load

I think ex-twitter finally broke me. So here I am...
