I'm firmly on the record that 'Bob's Burgers' is better than 'The Simpsons' ever was, and has been so for 16 years. And then they give us this, which is strangely beautiful and emotional while being quite silly--a perfect fit. Bob and Gene covering "Transmission": youtu.be/L2UzKWC9CfY?...

I read romance, I teach romance, I value romance. And I am always slightly confounded at the difference between what people think it is and what it actually is. The idea that a whole subset of novels dedicated to intimate human relations are indifferent are going to be simple and worthless? Weird.

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

I wrote this quickly at a bus stop and didn't realize it would go viral, or else I would have worded it better. But the point is that the media is too credulous about AI killing everyone in 10 years (how?) when climate change is killing people now and will only get worse (we know exactly how).

Happy weekend! Here’s an ancient Egyptian bead in the form of a curled-up blue hedgehog! Look at the little face and paws! 🦔💙 Made of faience around 3,600 years ago. National Museum of Scotland 📷 by me #Archaeology

My photo shows an ancient Egyptian hollow blue spherical bead in the form of a hedgehog curled up in a defensive ball displayed on a grey background. It is made of Egyptian faience, a ceramic material with a shiny blue glaze. The hedgehog's snout, ears, paws and tail are shown in relief, and the quills are represented by black dots painted over the surface of the bead. A smll hole for threading runs through the sphere - it can be seen on the right hand side of the bead in my photo. The hedgehog's long ears suggest this is a desert hedgehog. Desert hedgehogs may have symbolized rebirth to the ancient Egyptians because they reappear after hibernating. Dated c.1985 - 1650 BC. On display at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh.

I am indeed a professor. I read ugh, theory. I read a lot of history; articles and books. Its because the stuff I read for work is so dark, and intense that I need something to change the gears. So hell yes, I read absolutely trashy romance novels, and I read smut. We can do it all, I believe.

When people say they’ve read 100 books a year and it’s all smut I get mad. That shit does not count.

Wanna know who actually reads hella books per year? Professors. On top of journal articles. On top of student essays.
