Staying at the same hotel in Statesboro as the Coastal Chanticleers baseball team. What a deeply Southern experience.

I have placed the order on a cart full of used books for what is, presumably, the last semester of coursework I'll ever have. I guess this is the end of school as we know it.

...for better or for worse, I've submitted my last assignment of the term. One last class + candidacy exams in the spring...and then I guess I'll have run out of classes to take?

It's a beautiful day for homecoming. I'm at home, writing, but delighted to hear @mikegolicjr.bsky.social on the UCF call. Shame the school won't commit to go all-in on the Citronaut. At least the space game is coming up.

So I guess we've got a concentration camp a couple of hours from here. not sure what specifically there is to be done about it. Network, protest, talk rationally to folks about it, talk irrationally to folks about it, organize, vote in every election everywhere In short - be the change, fucko.

Went and watched some racecars yesterday at the 12 Hours of Sebring.

The class-winning Porsche 911 GT3, fielded by AO Racing and affectionately known as Rexy.

The fan-favorite Aston Martin Valkyrie, raced by The Heart of Racing Team, made its series debut. It uses a very different engine than other cars racing, so it was easy to pick out by sound!

All this talk in design spaces on the internet about "dark academia" design trends. Meanwhile, in actual academia, I'm drowning in beige, cardboard boxes, and bad airport carpet.

I'm getting my PhD in something called "texts and technology" and this conversation between @pablo.show and @chrislhayes.bsky.social a few moments from this are perhaps the best piece of non-academic media that I could give someone to explain what the field discusses.

small museums are awesome. don't just be limited to small, regional art museums. Hit up their history museum, or their museum of science and industry. and especially hit up that museum that seems exceedingly niche.

A used copy of a book that's already got notes and markups is a fun game of roulette. Are these scribbles the notes of a prodigious potions master or the scrawlings of a madman? neat part is, you usually don't know until the end! this one has "WOOF" in several places so far.

it should be illegal: for east coast NBA teams (specifically the one I like) to take west coast road trips with games starting after 9pm. for games to start 20min after announced tipoff time. I propose jail time for ref crew. I will take no further questions at this time.

The last time there were consecutive title games without an SEC team was 2004–2005... Oklahoma–USC and Texas–USC. The last time there were consecutive title games without a current SEC team was 2001–2002... Nebraska–Miami and Ohio State–Miami.

new term, new assistantship. I'm working on an oral history project interviewing folks about one of Orlando's historically Black neighborhoods that has been aggressively gentrified and counts both the NBA arena and the MLS stadium within its bounds. It, of course, is named for a confederate soldier.

It is a new year, which means the music/streaming services are showing us our stats. Apparently, I am a top 5% listener to @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social, which is surely something. But am a top 0.11% listener to Jimmy Buffett. I am also a 1%er for Charles Mingus, evidently.
