if you know a lot of stuff i think it is your moral duty to be kind and excited when people learn stuff for the first time. the world is full of stuff we don't know about, don't be mean

This is Maggie. She saw this tree blossoming into its true colors and thought of you. 13/10
a golden retriever sits and looks directly at the camera. a gigantic tree is in full, bright pink blooms that completely fills the top half of the frame. both the dog’s fur and the tree are shimmering a little in the sunlight. in a delightful coincidence, the dog’s tongue almost perfectly matches the blossoms behind her.

Finally home and in bed after a long day of panels and travel... and already making plans for next year's conference (and things to do between now and then!). Is this what it's like to be an area chair? Thanks for an excellent time in NOLA, @pcaaca.bsky.social! Looking forward to Atlanta 🫡

I talked with a student and they are going to apply to a conference! This is the first time I have done anything like this! But they've been doing so great this semester and there are a couple small online things going on this summer I think would work great. I feel like a real professor! Exciting 🤩

I know I complain about students who can't follow directions or who just don't seem to put in the effort but every so often you get a heartbreaking email and it's just like. Idk man. This is why I do this, so that students have someone who is going to respond kindly and help them...

Tweet from @dril with an edit. Original says:

“Food $200
Data $150
Rent $800
Candles $3,600
Utility $150
someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my family is dying”

The edit is that the candles line is crossed out and replaced with “Tariffs: $6 trillion”

Just got my first job response that was neither an acceptance nor a rejection but a "we've put this position on hold while we reevaluate our hiring needs at this time" so, y'know, that's great and cool and I'm totally chill this is fine

Should I derail a really irritating and pedantic discussion in my group chat's pedagogy channel by sharing this
A tumblr text post thread:
User sisterofiris: hey students, here's a pro tip: do not write an email to your prof while you're seriously sick. Signed, a person who somehow came up with "dear hello, I am sick and not sure if I'll be alive to come tomorrow and I'm sorry, best slutantions, [name]".
User yay855: I mean, if someone wrote that to me, I'd probably believe they were sick.
User rox-and-prose: "slutantions" has me crying laughing 
User hydro-punk: I once emailed my professor with a migraine. A mistake.
"I amsick will not to choir because I have a heache. I hope its very and I am so sorry
Love,
Blue"
The subject line was "OW"
User xakumi: THE SUBJECT LINE IS THE BEST PART JSJFJSKDJS JUST IMAGINE GETTING AN EMAIL WITH NO CONTEXT OTHER THAN "OW"
User womenlovewords: I once sent an email to a professor with the subject line: "Helo I am dying tofay."
And the body of the message was just "head ow"
The context was that I got a concussion, forgot that someone else had already told my professors I wasn't going to be in class, and decided I must send them my own message. I got replies to it telling me to go back to bed.

The continued focus of the media and general public on Columbia’s loss of $400 million which is a much smaller sum of money to an Ivy League institution than $100 million is to Maine is elitist bullshit that treats regional schools and their student and alum communities like we are disposable

My friends set me up with the window open so the room would be cool and have a little air circulation so I could sleep without a fan, but then they found me a fan anyway, which is now set up in front of the open window, in March, in NY... it's 34° outside and I am a *little* chilly 😬

My day 🫠
A text conversation:
Person 1: yeah they keep telling us that they have maintenance on the plane
Person 2: [series of angry emojis]
Person 2: I mean, it's probably like... cleaning or a light bulb or something lol
Person 1: yeahhh it's been an hour 🫠
Person 1: oh apparently a first class seat is broken so they keep having to delay to fix this 🙄
Person 2: amazing
Person 1: the *energy* when they explained the issue 😅
Person 2: I can only imagine
Person 2: I just told Drew and he was like "well that's clearly a commentary on SOMETHING"
Person 1: all the angry muttering 🫠Continued conversation:
Person 1: oh my god they need to get a new plane
Person 1: oh my god
Person 2: geeeeez
Person 2: and no worries, it's not your fault lol
Person 1: when they made the announcement someone yelled "YOU SHOULD'VE DONE THAT TWO HOURS AGO" 🫠
Person 2: I mean... they have a point
Person 1: they *absolutely* do
Person 1: this crowd is about to RIOT there's some angry new yorkers in here 😅 
Person 1: hooooooo boy they just came on the radio and fussed at us but also they're mixing their stories now and I am gettin a lil bit 😤 
Person 1: (I may have loudly proclaimed "this is some bullshit" ... I myself am an angry new yorker)Continued conversation:
Person 1: well they came on and this lady was like "there is a delay for a MAINTENANCE ISSUE and we all WANT TO BE SAFE so we are TAKING OUR TIME we all want you to GET THERE QUICKLY maybe us MORE THAN YOU" like girl
Person 2: omggggg
Person 1: and like you had JUST told us you're switching us to a new plane so WHAT IS THE TRUTH
Person 2: ya'll aren't leaving before midnight 😭😭😭
Person 1: the guy next to me is like "this is gonna be a mess" and I was like "I think we're already there" and he's like "no this is gonna get ugly... I got moved into first class"
Person 1: don't fight it my guy 
Person 2: how are they moving people INTO a part of the plane that, apparently, already doesn't have enough seats because one is broken?An email with the subject "Your flight to Buffalo - Delayed" with a series of updates showing that the flight had been delayed 8 times.

This visit's offering to the wishing tree - I keep making small, reasonable wishes with a single shell on a pilfered piece of string but this year I brought my own thread and made a pretty little wind chime-esque assortment of different shells and an absolutely *buckwild* wish because why not?
A hand holds three shells against an out of focus beach and ocean backdrop. The shells are tied on teal embroidery floss at different lengths and are different types of shells but all fairly small. The person holding the shells has a watercolor semicolon tattoo on their wrist.A spindly tree on a beach covered in dangling shells.
