joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 03/04/2026I can't seem to be able to message you. Can you see if you can try to message me? re: the teenage photographer who was shot with the pepper ball 000
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 03/10/2025The NZ accent had me thinking @thebeths.bsky.social were getting bitter when they were actually getting better. Big difference! Need to retune these American ears. 000
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Good advice from the expert if you’re trying to raise money that doesn’t directly benefit you (for kids with cancer etc) but not if you’re trying to raise money to fund a business. I appreciate you pushing back on the cringiest of advice 000
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 07/06/2025Home repair, organization and deep cleaning. You’re about to spend a lot of time at home staring at a broken door handle or filthy baseboards or something and you won’t have the energy to do anything about it but it will drive you nuts. 060
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 16/05/2025I was having this conversation with my own mother, who said that "universities have a big pot of money they can use to make up for any cuts in federal funding" and also there are "plenty of private individuals who will step up and fund the research." It's like banging your head against a wall. 000
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 07/05/2025I've had experiences with older retired people in particular who only hear about AI from the news that think it can do anything now. I told someone my husband's job is he makes video games and they said, "Doesn't AI just do all that now?" 030
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 09/02/2025We did a few over spring break junior year, but for the most part we waited to tour until Senior year, when he started getting admissions offers. Touring schools he was never going to get into seemed a waste. And taking days off school second semester senior year...doesn't really matter. 000
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 07/02/2025If the question is not about Miette sending Mother to jail for 1000 years I don’t know what we’re doing here 010

joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Henry, Henry @allenbratton.bsky.social I loved this modern day telling of the Henriad so much, but it works completely even if you take it out of that historical context 100
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Mobility, @lydiakiesling.bsky.social Another one I pushed on everyone I know, including my son (geology major, surrounded by the oil & gas industry), husband and Dad 110

joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 29/12/2024The Michigan Plot, @kenbensinger.bsky.social and @jessicagarrison.bsky.social Another one I could not stop talking about. An amazing collection of recordings. 121
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 29/12/2024Search Engine, @pjvogt.bsky.social After every episode, I end up talking about the topic incessantly at dinner like I'm suddenly an expert. Just ask my kids. 100
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 29/12/2024The Competition, @shimaoliaee.bsky.social I'm a sucker for a story about teenage girls, especially overachievers, and this one had so much to offer on all levels 211
joannkbc.bsky.social @joannkbc.bsky.social · 29/12/2024We Live Here Now, @hannarosin.bsky.social and Lauren Ober, about getting to know their J6-er neighbor. Sad and infuriating and enlightening. 110
