Teenage Ben is very happy he is now taking a commuter train a couple days a week on which he gets to hear the conductor announce “Shirley!”

To be fair, this is a traditional greeting among woodwind players.

Overheard at the book festival: Older woman: Liberals are going to ruin everything by always talking about trans, trans, trans. 20-something woman: Are the trans kids on your lawn? Do you want them off?

I'm surprised that "rampant misandry" guy hasn't nuked his account yet. Must have a humiliation kink. (not linking because ick)

I've gotten a lot of requests from faculty about how to talk to their students about the Cornell 7. I'll post a few resources I've built over the years that I've heard are the most helpful:

Sunrise over Weenipagamiksaguygun on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Reflecting, as a settler, on how much better things would be if more people adopted an Indigenous World View and treated the lake and all around us as our relatives.

I also want to share this, her great grandchild. The strengths reclaimed and our languages. I know she would weep if she ever saw her dancing. She dances for her family, her greatgrandmother, her ancestors. Four generations between destruction and the rise. We are still healing. ♥️🪶

The foliage on plain old 95 in Maine is also beautiful right now. Plus, you might spot the LL Bean boot truck like I did. 🤩

I can understand why the features of a supposed AI assistant are compelling. I kinda wanna try it too. But I know too much about how these things work. Do not give a cloud-based agent access to your shit. Especially one from the big tech companies.

Our students are interested in doing a symposium on music & resistance in America's pasts & presents. My familiarity is with the folks who wrote on labor songs, but most of them have moved on. Who would you recommend my students consider as participants? Who is working in this space? 🗃️

I just had to deal with the Haymarket RMV and Boston City Hall and BOTH were pleasant, quick experiences. Very helpful people and no lines. It was very Uncanny Valley. Then I watched a woman go down the Cop Slide, and cheer "I'm so happy!"
