Trump has no imagination. Anything he accuses someone else of doing is what he has done or is thinking of doing.
Thus, his accusations regarding Iranβs nuclear weapons capabilities should be interpreted as a direct threat he is strongly considering using nuclear weapons in the Middle East.
Oh! That didnβt even look like a Lion Brand yarn! Thank you!
I gave that album so much airtime. That went straight into heavy rotation when it came in and I think we all wore out the station vinyl!
Ooooooh, whatβs that? I also kinda like that yarn!!
Graded twenty essays, twenty five video essays, and a handful of discussions today. I graded so hard I have three different forms of double vision and moving my head makes me feel sick.
I wish I could take tomorrow off, but alas, more work to be done once I can see again.
Yay, inkle weaving! Fond childhood memories!
As an American who lived in the UK, can confirm.
Wait, maybe Iβm just horrendously awkward and rude normallyβ¦
Definitely! π€£ The few home goings Iβve been permitted to attend are so different, even from the sidelines. White funerals can be so cold.
I should be grading. I should be doing homework. I should be prepping my new class. Instead, I am planning one hell of a bubble bath, because my meat-suit needs some R&R.
White people funerals are scary, and I say that as a white person. Itβs a bad vibe.
Boodle-ay-hee-boooo!
Student: What do I need to do to get my grade up to at least a B?
Me: Let me look⦠Oh honey, your grade is a 4%.
Student: So, extra credit?
Me: No kiddo, you need to call Jesus about a resurrection.
Wow!!
Honestly, thereβs a paper to be done on the marginalia of some of these resources. That would be fucking bad ass! Hmmm.
I had calls and texts from three faculty today. Both callers were in tears. I am not a warm and fuzzy person, so if they are in such distress that they are calling meβrepeatedlyβto sob about the moral injury our policies cause, it would be super great for admin to address these issues. Iβm tired.
He BRAGGED about it? Holy crap. I have walked into an ER on a broken leg, but the sound in that video made me turn green. Who could be so vile as to brag about that?
Good, but why did it get to the point where you are having to rein him in from doing things that are unconstitutional?
Today I voted to pass the resolution to rein in the President. He unilaterally launched a war in the Middle East with no imminent harm to the U.S. when he did it. Iran should never have a nuclear weapon, but the Administration has no strategic path forward.
I just want the orangeness to dissipate over the next few weeks.
There has never been an official, comprehensive record of Black-owned bookstores across the United States β until now
Donald Trump cannot be trusted to lead us into a hallway, let alone war. He is unfit to lead, period.
Admin: Take this mental health training to help your students!
Iβm not a clinician; itβs inappropriate.
Admin: You donβt have to be a clinician!
Okay, do you provide legal protection if a student harms themselves?
Admin: No, youβre not a clinician.
Iβll refer to a clinician.
Admin: About thatβ¦
No, but I will follow you around the house saying, βDo you have your chargers? Do you have your socks? Did you bring your eye drops? Do you have your AirPods? Are you sure you have your chargers? Do you need a swimsuit? Do you need flip-flops? Do you have sunscreen?β
Iβm very annoying!

Yes! Writing makes us explore what we know and how we know it. It makes us wrestle with the undefined spaces in our knowledge. Writing is growth.
(And now I will wander off cussing about generative AI.)
Oh shoot, and I had popups blocked! My bad!
I mean, itβs gonna be brown, soβ¦
You have my attention.
I wonβt say exactly what my cat just did to my bed, but I will say that all of my sheets are in the washer and thereβs a lot of bleach involved.
Donβt worry, Trump says itβs all going to go away by Easter. Itβll all be over by Easter. Covid will all be gone byβ¦ sorry, Iran will all be done by Easter.
