I've had enough. I'm banning Beatrix Potter's "Pigling Bland" from my household. I cannot bear to read it aloud one more time.

Nothing hits more than a couple of random songs you accidentally downloaded on Limewire as a teen while looking for another band's music. That's the real stuff.

This reminds me how I knew one aged Classics professor who had heard about podcasts from his students but refused to use computers and had a "Bad experience" with a CD player once so he wanted his students to put podcasts onto cassette tapes for him

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

view out of my window of the morning sky as a haar clears. in the foreground is my garden fence, then a bit of land left to run wild that’s full of flowering grasses and beyond that a neat farmed field. there’s a stone built farm building to the left. trees in the background are pale and mist covered

As of this morning, @thenewschool.bsky.social is de facto replacing its History department with a “Center for the American Experience,” which is funded by private and undisclosed donors. The New School has been New Colleged, and there’s no GOP to blame here. Our anti-fascist identity is over.
