It's only been 11 months, so time for life updates. Last year: - I graduated, so now I'm Dr. Lycan - I started a new job as a teaching lab manager, which has been kinda insane - most importantly, I proposed to my beautiful amazing fiancee This year, we moved into our own place, so that's pretty epic

@catbaronale.bsky.social made me these awesome art pieces to go with an Edward Gorey puzzle, go check them out!
An Edward Gorey puzzle box. Two 5x3 pen sketches are on top of it, one with a fox with flowers in its mouth, and one of a gray wolf with lichen and moss in its fur in a blue sweater. Both pieces are in the style of Edward Gorey, with beady eyes and a fun Edwardian style.

Are there any furry artists that specialize in graffiti and are open for commissions? I want to get some graffiti to apply to my N Scale cars.

I know the media is going to unthinkingly start using “Alligator Alcatraz,” but it’s disgusting and sadistic and I intend to call it what it is, a fucking concentration camp, and fuck those people who are doing this and giving it a cutesy name.

sorry i don’t think Zohran’s win indicates how state or national races will go. Zohran campaigned against unaffordable basic needs and an old pervert. problems that are unique to new york city and no where else in the country

Steven Universe is a show about God negotiating with themself and discovering profound empathy for their creation by living amongst it, in doing so going through metaphorical death and resurrection. It's Jesus. Steven is Jesus. Deeply Catholic show. Right down to the confessional catharsis aspect.

Dodgers broadcast was discussing the science behind the perception of time between children and adults. After hearing the explanation, the color commentator pauses and asks, "Am I gonna feel any better?" Andy Pages then smashes a dinger into space, thus ending the existential crisis on commentary.

I assembled a new car today! It came with 3D printing supports that were probably a little too thick, so the small details are pretty chewed up (one side more than the other). Still, the drilling and snipping paid off, and now that the wheels fit I'll probably need to disassemble and paint it.
A 3D Printed model train car. It has four trucks on two pivoting bogeys, with a large cylindrical object suspended upright between them with a long body.One bogey of the same car. A portion of its fine details survived the sprue breaking process, including hazard placards and part of the railing.The other bogey, with many of those details accidentally broken off. This will certainly be the hidden end of it.

Our University: "Hey it's fine, you'll get a scholarship that'll pay most of the pay you're missing from having half the normal amount of pay this summer." The scholarship is half of its normal value, so lots of our grad students are getting shafted when they have bills to pay and food to buy. Nice

Damn, it is stronger in an expanded quote and the fuller context of Jesus' first fall is even stronger than this www.vatican.va/news_service...
"You blessed the Father, who conceals his plans from the wise and the learned in order to reveal them to the little ones. Even the way of the cross is traced close to the earth. The mighty withdraw from it; they desire to grasp at heaven. Yet heaven is here below; it hangs low, and we can encounter it even when we fall flat on the ground. Today's builders of Babel tell us that there is no room for losers, and that those who fall along the way are losers. Theirs is the construction site of Hell. God's economy, on the other hand, does not kill, discard or crush. It is lowly, faithful to the earth. Your way, Jesus, is the way of the Beatitudes. It does not crush, but cultivates, repairs and protects.

Let us pray, saying: May your kingdom come!

For those who think they have failed, May your kingdom come!
To challenge an economy that kills, May your kingdom come!
To restore strength to those who have fallen, May your kingdom come!
In a world of competition and competitors, May your kingdom come!
For those left behind, lacking hope for the future, May your kingdom come!

QUESTION OF: Hello Dr. Tingle, sir. I have a question. Do you ever begin to doubt yourself while writing? I've been writing stuff myself but sometimes get this sadness that makes me think it's not good enough writing. And I'm not sure how to work around that sadness. Do you ever have to? How do you do it? Thank you, I hope your day is as wonderful as you!

You know when you're super stressed about something, and your boss is hanging it over your head Sword of Damocles style, and then when it finally resolves you feel like you can relax for the first time in 5 years and start unpacking how horrible the experience was? Anyways:

Hmm... DEI for me but not for thee? It's a shame, my campus is very middle of the road, me and my friends are of course centrists or moderates,and I know nothing about the politics of my probably centrist professors and administrators. And I hope yours are too.
Screenshot from intellectual freedom survey:
A recent national survey of university faculty found that about 56% of professors are Democrat, 16% are Independent...

In Florida, across the state university system of 12 schools, the numbers are a bit different. Last year's survey of faculty...

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

**My college or university should take action to promote political diversity among its faculty.**
