In ‘45 Dizzy Trout gave up the game winning hit in the 12th. Borowy threw the first pitch as the home starter in Game 7. 010

chris quixote @chrisquixote.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Thanks for your replies. Most of that doesn’t speak well of the tenure process. I’m sure there are reasons for it. But if a university can’t say, “this person doesn’t quite fit, but damn they’re worth keeping,” then it ought to look at what it’s doing. 110

Voting early helps your candidate. 02012

chris quixote @chrisquixote.bsky.social · 08/10/2026- In the pilot Mary and Rhoda can’t stand each other, they’re at war, and in episode 2 they’re besties. No explanation. - The whole show lives in this liminal space where Mary is surrounded by swingers and seems to want it? But can’t pull the trigger. - Rhoda tho is Hot2Go 010

chris quixote @chrisquixote.bsky.social · 07/10/2026At this point I think it's gamesmanship. Calling in hopes that you won't answer, so then they can say they called you, take it off their to-do list / report to their boss that they reached out to you and haven't heard back yet, and go about their day. (Assuming this is work-related in some way.) 110

chris quixote @chrisquixote.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I love the way, in every culture I have encountered in a museum, all over the world, the earliest art is some image or design on a useful object. We make bowls or baskets or jugs to live. And as soon as we do, we look for ways to make them meaningful beyond their practical purpose. 1110
chris quixote @chrisquixote.bsky.social · 07/10/2026When your value proposition is “yes it’s a shit sandwich, but you might come to like it,” it’s not clear more advertising is helpful.
