Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Yay clean scan! Yay not laid off!

Mac made it to class and back and proclaimed English 101 a snoozefest
Speaking as someone who used to teach it, Mac is not wrong.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Yay!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Olive oil emporium was splendid, I’ll have to go back

I got permission to work from home today. That means teaching over Zoom, which I hate doing, but it's better than trying to navigate campus in a wheelchair in these temperatures and snow/ice.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

My cancer medication took a very strange path before it finally reached me today.

Starting in Ybor City FL, it went to St. Paul MN, then Kansas City KS, Platte City MO, Kansas City MO, Kansas City KS, Liberty MO, Kansas City KS, Kansas City MO, Liberty MO, and finally delivered.

WTF?

I'm relieved that I ordered the refill with plenty of time to spare.
