tenured prof with tons of seniority messaging the group thread to say she wishes she could be here to experience “the horror” with us but she can’t because she’s in crete. i’m sure she means halloween

keep refreshing the nyt to see what picture of cornell they're leading with now. it's wild to me how much this story has blown up nationally/internationally. kotlikoff really set the stage when he ran over that guy's foot. ps 🇵🇸

I was raised in a faith healing cult which waged a lot of lawsuits over the twentieth century to make this sort of thing legal. It breaks my heart every time.

this evening despite my fatigue i quickly made a chicken broth while i grated the beets and shredded the cabbage and sliced the onions and potatoes and celery and sauteed with some garlic and then chopped tomatoes to make a truly beautiful borscht and then i wanted to use up the sugar in the bowl >

i can't imagine american 9th graders reading Jane Eyre, even though i first read it around that age and many do. but it's wildly ambitious for most. i'm certain i could count the # of C 1st yrs i'd taught who had read it on one hand (out of 100s). Headline might be "china still reads"

this is reminding me of the time i went to see troublefunk in nyc and i was dancing near the stage and the lead singer went "we don't need no fire department" and held the mike to me and instead of yelling "just let the damn thing burn" i went "yeah!" he looked a little taken aback

i ordered a box of new reading glasses cuz i've been on a tear of breaking/losing them. they are stronger than ones i've had before and i can't tell if they're better or worse (for me). this always happens when i get my eyes tested too it must drive them crazy.

"Two Day Weekend Shopping" 双休购 is an app that allowed Chinese consumers to shop at businesses that provide workers with a real two day weekend, based on worker-provided info. The app blew up, reflecting widespread dissatisfaction with overwork. Then it was banned.
