1) I'm 100% here for "petty academia" lol 2) As a pleb, I don't care what citation type the writer uses as long as they are consistent throughout the paper. I just want to be able to find the source material. (I want the rabbit hole) 3) footnotes are not used nearly enough in recent years.

The instrumental version of Karma Chameleon wafts over the mall speakers while the Abercrombie thumps in the distance. I dump two marinara sauces into the bottom of a Rocky Roccocco's cup and drop the bread sticks in--we can nosh and window shop and talk shit and this Saturday will never end...

Dear smartphone makers, I miss hardware keyboards with real buttons. Please, I implore you--go back to making these, but with better cameras, Bluetooth, and wifi. Please look to previous examples; sanyo's incognito, blackberries, lg's voyager, unihertz's titan, etc. Thank you.

No, they don't actually get a chunk ripped out for examination without anesthesia. No giant cold metal tools shoved in there. Nothing cranked in place to hold it open. Just a bit of lube and a finger in the butt for a moment.

I have aspic-related core memories. They are not good memories. If you had received a jiggling slice of "winner winner chicken dinner aspic", a tiered mutli-ingredient gelatin based monstrosity of leftovers that could have been a respectable soup, you would understand.

Finally digging into my TBR pile. And wow. This author just made a worker uprising in early 20th century Jamaica sound about as interesting as toast. The factuality of the book tho-- I mean you can tell this dude did his homework, your homework, my homework. 48 pages of bibliography.

I'm less concerned about age and more concerned about term limits. Those should be limited. Perhaps only 4 consecutive terms, 8 total?

"there is some evidence to suggest religious significance of the colorful, fancifully shaped mini soaps & the swan shaped blue glass dish in which they are stored. We typically find these on toilet tanks, but occasionally on the sink as well. Perhaps an offering or ritual cleansing." Lol

The cat is freaking adorbs tho. Here are some suggestions to better convey the idea that I hope you were going for: "It me." "I'm in this picture." "If my state of being could be cumulatively summed up in a single photo, it would be this one."

Whilst I agree with the intent behind this post, the delivery falls very short. The term "spirit animal" is a poor colonial descriptor made by early anthropologists regarding the beliefs of indigenous cultures who are actively fighting genocide today. It is a bigoted term and should not be used.

Take them to the vet. A couple years ago my old girl was really needy for days when she was never a needy cat. Turns out she had cancer and passed a few months later. Don't wait. Cats are so good at hiding their problems in snuggles.

Make your favourite film sound as boring as possible without giving away the title. Two side characters become main characters and explore the world around them as they travel to see their best friend after his mom called--their bestie is tragic & afflicted. They are unhelpful.

This is ridiculous. There is a LEGAL route to change the name of a us geological site through the usgs. Making a proclamation is not that process. Plus we don't have kings here, so... Ya. I wanna see the application.. and the Epstein Files.

Almost like, giving students freedom to do the learning on their terms and accommodating those terms helps them learn better? Huh. Wild. Who would have thought?

Kinda bland, but sticking a dollar store placemat under my coffeemaker makes it easy to slide it out from under the cupboard and back again without spilling the anything. Plus, can pour my coffee on it and it helps keep the counter safe from morning coffee splooshes.

Sorry work sucks right now! I truly appreciate your art whenever you post it. The upside down blue dog one is so fun and gives a real glimpse into their personality. I think the girl in the blue sweater may be a self portrait - and she's so hopeful with stars in her eyes and funky glasses.

I've found giving my anxieties terrible names and telling them to sit down and shut up very helpful.

Check the rules in your state/county. Some places allow for early voting weeks in advance at the county clerks office. 🌈⭐

Probably because they're at an age and point in life where "nothing left to lose" takes on a more pragmatic meaning.

Have you considered additional outlets like Bon Appetit, Saveur, Food & Wine, Cooks Illustrated, etc ? True, these are not academic, technically, but these are geared toward industry directly impacted by the subject matter...

Wild. Just...wild. I thought I could not be shocked further, but yo, here we are. I can't even suspend my own disbelief enough to watch and enjoy musicals like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, but they gone and ran with "this famous Jew is anti-Jewish" and I just...wow... Ok.

This is wonderful news! Please tell me they got extra credit. Effort should rewarded, even if that effort is a red bull fueled all nighter to write a paper on a topic you know nothing about with references you only just obtained that may or may not be relevant & a conclusion that ... Is there. 😆

I used to work in healthcare. Had a couple eldercare/hospice folks that decided they should confess capital crimes in the same matter of fact way someone would say they like milk in their tea.

Oh. Oh no. I think I accidentally became important at work. Not important important, like I'm still expendable -- more like I have more work, same title, and not more pay, but with sparkling responsibility.
