My questions for those of you who keep tabs open: how many of them do you use on a given day, and why do you keep them open? As part of the closed-tabs minority, I'm guessing that y'all keep them open for the same reason I close them, which is that it feels better to my brain.

another day, another corporate review where i give the actual human workers 10/10 and gush about how professional they are & then leave a long comment in the "Other" box explaining that the corporate phone and web systems are FUCKING TERRIBLE. what if companies just paid people to do work.

At the risk of asking bsky for advice, I'm asking bsky for advice: Pretty soon I'm getting a red-eye +5 time zones forward of where I am now, but my body is already -3 time zones behind my current location. What's the best way to ensure I stay awake when I land at 8am local time, 12am body time?

Yes. My students were often surprised by this, and surprised by how good they were at it once they realized I actually wanted them to think. A good history class benefits everyone.

It appears I am sharing a plane with a significant number of members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, who seem to have just had a conference that involved commemorative skateboards. I am delighted.

#LRB listen I know we love Mamdani but this makes me especially emotional. the first time I went to the Met I was floored. even in the nosebleed seats, it was powerful. maybe more so, bc i didn't realize until the act break that the singers weren't miked. that's just them, singing to the rafters.

Funniest two things that happened at services tonight, which were full of chaos: 1. Rabbi asks the kids which of them is the most mature. Three immediately shoot their hands up, and one yells, "I'm allowed to hold fire!" 🕯️ 2. At the morning services, they ran over time & were given a lecture...

friends can you help me make a truly trivial decision. i get nervous about bringing my diary with me on long trips lest i lose it. right now i have three ideas for how to address this: 1. feel the fear and do it anyway 2. write in a separate book, cut, & paste 3. buy an Aug26-Dec27 diary & use that

After spending much of my 20s around this crowd, it is somewhat validating, if also perhaps cold comfort, to see the rest of the world experiencing these people and judging them accordingly.

Springsteen in the song "Prove it All Night" pronounces the word "dreams" as if the great vowel shift never happened, and it's not all that makes the song a banger, but it's certainly a major factor.

The most absolutely massive flex from the state fair exhibit. This quilt is made of 40 years of prize ribbons from various categories at the New Mexico State Fair won by Carol St. Clair Johnson. She also won a prize for this quilt.

Carol St. Clair Johnson
born 1954; resides Albuquerque, NM

O Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years
2023
satin ribbons

After unexpectedly winning her first blue ribbon for a sewn cape in 1981, Carol St. Clair Johnson developed an enduring love for the New Mexico State Fair. The quilt Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years incorporates more than six hundred of the ribbons she won at the fair every subsequent year except 2020 (when the fair was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic). Johnson earned ribbons for needlework, knitting, crochet, pies, cookies, cakes, canning, jewelry, flowers, vegetables, and potted plants. The title of the quilt is a reference to the state song, and the design places the state's Zia sun symbol at the center. The quilt earned Johnson yet another ribbon: Best in Category (miscellaneous quilt) at the 2023 New Mexico State Fair.

I've seen everyone sharing that US Dialect Quiz so I decided to make my own, much crappier, CANADIAN DIALECT QUIZ to guess where in Canada you're from

A flow chart I have created with multiple questions and the answers determine where you're from.

Question 1 is do you call it a hydro bill (which then branches down to ON, QC, BC, MB) or an electric bill (which then branches down to SK, AB, NS, NB, PEI, NL)

Question 2 is do you call it a cabin (BC, MB, AB, SK) cottage (ON and atlantic) camp (northern Ontario) chalet (QC) or bungalow (Cape Breton)

To delineate BC from MB: do you call it dinner or supper

To delineate southern Ontario rural or big city: have you heard of a stag & doe

To delineate SK from AB: do you call a hoodie a bunnyhug

And finally to delineate NL from the other atlantic provinces: whaddayat? (Correct answer: dis is it b'y)
