I fell asleep so early last night my cat thought I’d died and woke me up to make sure I wasn’t dead at 3a.

I just can’t even with this nonsense.

Prediction markets are hailed by some as some improvement over averaged polling, when its actually a fraud engine

I hope so because we are in an existential crisis and we should definitely not do petty stupid things to dampen our ability to meet this moment.

Right? That’d be so stupid!

Our derby league keeps growing! Good news! Like 50 people there today!

I keep joking it’s just a huge MLM where the only thing you buy is a 100$ annual mandatory additional injury insurance policy that’s impossible to recoup from.

I could use at least a Tupperware for my time and torn ligaments.

Driving through a 40 mile wide blizzard a few days after skiing in 60 degrees is the most Ohio thing I’ve ever experienced.

This was basically the morning visibility.

And all my curses to the large parts of the 75 that remain unlit to help us all through the squalls.

😱

The amount of creeping you can do into stranger's lives via property records is reallly bizarre.

We should teach more about the infrastructure of disciplinary history a lot more than we do.

When I was in PT this was brewing; she was flipping because her son is enlisted.

Hope she’s okay and her son.

Never good when the news feels the need to just pull SkyNews feeds because they are at least awake.

Me hanging with my friend who used to ski instruct in aspen or some stuff.

People were right that the green slope, which was my max for my first ski, was somewhat “easier” in terms of snow quality but I found edge braking so much different than skates.

I am doing my first ski and am not dead.

Well let’s go skiing in 60 degrees I guess?

Also, to Dayton city taxation office, which continues to have an unfillable PDF tax form we all must use:

Went to the little Africa in town to eat Ethiopian and do my taxes.

10/10 experience.

Never met someone as annoyed as I about my taxes but able to do them in 15 minutes to a Gordon Ramsay show and F bombs.

No AI slop apps. Just tax rage.

Happy vibes achieved before I do my stupid taxes.

Nom!

At least twice a year I sing a line of this song.

Even I have fooled myself into believing the hype that I must work so much less than I think.

I don't. I work more than I think.

Recently I really started tracking my working hours as an academic.

Highly recommend it.

Like, yes, I'm hanging with the NURSES and the K12 teachers because THAT'S WHERE ORGANIZING HAPPENS NOW.

Sometimes in organizing men act like no one is doing anything - like how they used to do things.

Yeah, when you pretend women's organizing isn't "doing anything," then yes, it probably does seem unfamiliar.

I think this is almost entirely unconscious. But labor looks different now.

Some of ur faculty website photos are seriously from the Obama era. Like you don’t even have a smartphone in your pocket. You’re listening to “Happy” by Pharrell in these photos.

They don’t solve the problems you think they will, but still yummy.

I actually am into gummy bears as a mid-sport snack food and my and my skater teammates fight over gummy snacks regularly

It was not enough gummy bears.

Ate two whole snack packs of gummy bears before this meeting.

Things I didn’t realize I wanted in home ownership: an “ew room” for my toxic skating pads.

Tweet that reads Leo Xander @STALLEON Stop taking social media so serious. Nothing here is real. Look at this chicken V - it is bigger than the car

I think about this tweet every time I feel something online start to curl its annoying little grip into my head
