every yiddish student learns to introduce themselves by saying “I am called [name]” (כ׳הײס [נאָמען]) and i am only now learning that it is common to instead just tell a stranger ״THEY CALL ME [NAME]” (מיך רופֿט מען [נאָמען]) like some jewish cowboy of some renown

I got a pathology report from my surgery and not only did I receive a diagnosis that explains my problems, but also the surgery I had completed cured the issue. This was the best possible case for everything. I am validated and also don't have something hanging over me.

Reminder!!

Bluesky has a pronoun labeler you should really use!

Only those who subscribe to this will see it so you should do that. Don't worry, that's all it does.
Instructions are in the bio/first post.

Genuinely delighted to download a PhD thesis from a university repository where the author has neglected to remove the words "BITCH THIS IS YOUR THESIS" from the filename.

Do you ever do a really specific fuck up that's probably fine in the long term but feels so mortifying in the moment? Because I have just done something that I know will become long term grad student lore long after I'm gone.

I feel like the people out here giving long winded explanations about how the loss of SNAP benefits affects the whole economy are the same people who think you just have to explain to conservatives what pronouns actually are and how they work.
