Watching both soccer and hockey today and I cannot stress this enough, just use one camera please. No closeups or cuts during live play. Please.

Please enjoy this, the most breathless and accurate description of a javelina ever penned (see alt for easier-to-read copy):

A screenshot of an article in SALON with the heading “Wild pig-like animals are tearing up an Arizona golf course”.

The accompanying photo is of a javelina in recline, presumably on said golf course.

Excerpt reads as follows:
“She's an eco-vengeance iconoclast who loves coyote pee and running at manic speeds. She's an unstoppable chaos queen with a stink-nipple on her butt, who turns luxury Arizona golf courses into free range charcuterie boards for her grub-worm girl dinner. She's a guerilla class-warfare legend whose mating call sounds like the hissing warb-garble of a cappuccino machine milk-steamer. She's the internet's most beloved trash-eating ungulate - the uncompromising, the indefatigable, the lovely javelina.”

We've moved on to Welcome to Wrexham. Surprising how many plot points its first season shares with Ted Lasso S1 & S2, even though TL is fictional and aired earlier than WTW

I have never been a "play music before class" kind of instructor (except during WFH) but occasionally I consider it. Any good reasons to do it or not to?

I came across this meme in a FB group I follow, but was saddened to see that comments were closed by admin because people were getting nasty. The meme calls out ppl who nitpick grammar in comment threads, but many group members took the opportunity to air their own grievances. 1/

2-panel meme of screenshots from The Good Place. Top panel, Eleanor, captioned "Does it help if I call out their grammar mistake in the comments?". Bottom panel, Michael, captioned "I think you know it does not."

Me: just because a borrowed word has plural morphology in its source language, doesn't mean the borrowing language will treat it as a plural Them: can you move? I'm just trying to pick out some broccoli

Republicans are banning books, entire fields of study, and dismantling public universities, so naturally all the people who said that the intolerant left was going to do these things are instead writing books about the dangers of “wokeness”

I really believe that liberal arts taking a beating isn't just down to their being undervalued. it has to do with inconvenient curiosity, the ways that imagining threatens systems of power.
