If a Psych prof assigns students an essay response paper with explicit guidelines and then flunks a student for turning in a paper that ignores those guidelines but instead makes vague gestures to "the Bible" then THAT IS NOT A VIOLATION OF THE STUDENT'S RELIGIOUS FREEDOM.
OU has put the professor here on administrative leave:

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

A blessed Samhain to all! My brief homily on the liminal time of the holiday was well received.

This has to be the king (or at a minimum, the court jester) of "That's not how this works!"

A happy and blessed Autumnal Equinox! We are out of state for a wedding, so no feast this year, but I'll make up for it at Samhein!

Look, I'm not saying the sandwich throwing guy was correct, but if one of my fellow millennials doesn't photoshop his picture with the caption, "Hoagie Hero" using the 'Hogan's Heroes' font, then we've certainly messed up as a generation...

I need @gregdoucette.bsky.social and/or @kenwhite.bsky.social to explain how this is both wildly (hopefully) unconstitutional and also how it won't matter because "what is law?" these days... news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-...

I am not sure why anyone would willingly choose to go into law (or actual law making) with these chucklefucks just making it up as they go along. . .
this is my favorite bit - dcts should ignore existing law in future cases, and instead divine SCt's intent from its opinion-less orders

Just finished a marathon D&D session where our online group flew out to play 20+ hours of D&D over the long weekend.

Erin put us through hell too. We fought a demon whose attacks cut off limbs, a beholder in an ooze-filled sewer, and worst of all, an empire-controlled newspaper printing propaganda.
My D&D Party that I am DMing for just snagged an early copy of the newspaper that will be distributed throughout the world and are editing it to make them sound better.

And now they're stuck coming up with a title and copy.

And oh no I turned my table into a newsroom.

Two weeks ago millions of people in this country marched saying "NO KINGS."

The Supreme Court this week responded, "SORRY FOLKS, YES, WE HAVE A KING."

Whatever impostor syndrome you may have once had, dispose of it fucking immediately. If these people run the country, you deserve that promotion, you can run for city council, you can start that business. If this is the baseline, shit, you can do surgery drunk in an alley and you will do less harm.
