I use a Logitechβ„’ MX Master 4 to work on the syllabuses that no student will ever read and the chapters that are 10% overlength, the blunder-filled chess games, and the committee reports that sap my will to live. Logitechβ„’ please sponsor me bro

Here we may reign secure; and,
in my choice,
To reign is worth ambition,
though in Hell:
Better to reign in Hell than
serve in Heaven.
But wherefore let we then our
faithful friends,
Th' associates and co-partners
of our loss,

I, 261-265

as some of you know, my recurring fantasy is to quit academia and open a pie shoppppppe. I have an expanding list of shopppe names, which are in need of workshoppppppppping. What about Pie R Squared, where we specialize in pies with four corners

My dog and I got screamed at by the local neighborhood Karen for peeing on a tree. Which really isn’t fair because I didn’t pee on anything!

(This would’ve been nice to know before the state legislature capitulated to the threats & corporate pressure to essentially pilfer public tax dollars to socialize private equity spending, while privatizing the profits from the public tax dollar investment.)

If you're in Portland, PCC faculty and classified employees are going on strike tomorrow. You can show solidarity by walking the picket lines with them. All campuses, 10:30am.

I tried having a conversation with AI Bobby Fischer and AI Ezra Pound but I couldn't really tell the difference.

β€œWe fell short on this” means they want to keep doing it.

I was doing chess endgame exercises on the bus because it's the only thing I can do that doesn't make me carsick, and the guy next to me asked if I play. I basically said "I'm not good, but I like it." And so of course he followed up with, "Do you think Hans Niemann used a buttplug?"

I did a free grammarly trial to see if I’m an expert (I’m not). If you’re thinking of doing the same, please don’t. Getting this shit off of my computer has been an extreme hassle. Vanitas vanitatum

I disagree; while the Broncos were a flawed team, you can't call them a fluke when they went 14-3 and their backup quarterback came within a field goal of a Super Bowl appearance

I disagree; while Mulvey's theory of the male gaze may be dated in some ways, it is important to contextualize its emergence in relation to classical cinema and as a response to theories that presumed "the spectator" as a monolithic category
