I basically see your posts and just think "ooh pretty flower". But looks cool!!
For someone who hates grading as much as I do, I sure did pick a career with a lot of grading.
Big fan of this new puzzle from Josh Wardle (creator of Wordle!) if you love cryptics, youβll love this too! And if you have always wanted to try cryptics but found them a bit hard to get into, this is a great introduction!

Welp, my dog chewed up my Kindle. I always said my next e-reader would be non-Amazon. Anyone have experience with the Rakuten Kobo? In particular, I borrow a lot of ebooks from my local library via Libby. Do they play nice together?
Had a bit of a wildlife encounter our bedroom this morning.

In my part of the world, we are gaining about 2 minutes of sunlight a day right now, which may not seem like a lot, but in Longyearbyen, Svalbard, they are gaining 16 minutes of sunlight per day right now!
Iβve been thinking about the vernal equinox. Mostly I realized how much later the sun seems to stay out these days, and how sudden the change felt. But itβs simple math - assuming a roughly sinusoidal pattern, the derivative is maximized halfway between the winter and summer solstices.
Screenshot of a veterinary clinic update labeled βMoose,β uploaded 20 minutes ago by βMasha RVT,β with the caption βWe are scrubbed and ready to go for Surgery.β The photo shows a large brown dog lying on his back on a surgical table. His abdomen is shaved and prepped, and most of his body is covered with a cream-colored blanket patterned with red lines. Blue positioning pads support his body and legs. A veterinary professional wearing scrubs, gloves, a mask, and a surgical cap stands beside him, surrounded by medical equipment including monitors, IV lines, and a large circular imaging machine. The setting appears to be a surgical suite, with the dog prepared for an upcoming procedure.
My dog Moose had surgery the other day (he is ok, just repairing a stomach issue and is now recovering at home) but the vet sent me this photo as an update. What an image (content warning in case seeing a dog splayed out on a surgical table isnβt what you needed today) (no blood)
This was my first thought
After hearing DJT make fun of elite women Olympic athletes, I never want to hear the argument that they want to βprotect womenβs sportsβ ever again.
A close-up of a large protest sign mounted on a wooden stick that reads βCSU UNFAIR TO LABOR β PAY UP OR STRIKE OUTβ in bold black and blue letters. The sign includes the Teamsters Local 2010 Skilled Trades logo near the bottom. It is photographed outdoors beside a street, with a metal pole, trees, blue sky with clouds, and a partially visible person in the background.
Teamsters are striking across CSU campuses this week and faculty are showing their support! Stand in solidarity.
