Can you get pinkeye from your cats? Because there’s definitely something wrong with my eye and the main precursor seems to have been my cats competing to see who can rub themselves over my face more.

please don't do this. MAGA hats are made from an acrylic blend, which will release toxic chemicals when set on fire, potentially harming you and downwind woodland creatures

lol. I’m still faithfully using Pinboard?? It doesn’t seem to be able to autoarchive AO3 anymore though, which is tragic.
For fans of Pinboard and Delicious, an open social bookmarking tool based on ATProto!
I made something! Monomarks.at is an open social bookmarking tool along the lines of Pinboard or Delicious, and it's based on ATProto, because I was inspired by @danabra.mov's widely-read post. Log in with your Bluesky account to save bookmarks and browse links posted by the people you follow. 😎

One of my favorite niche headcanons/fic genres is the concept of KinnPorsche and Love in the Air crossover AUs where either Kinn/Porsche or Pete/Vegas have adopted/raised various LitA kids. The problem is that there is never enough coherent and readable fic to satisfy me.

Good news! My new meds doctor says it’s 100% plausible my mood issues are being epically exacerbated by perimenopause. (FINALLY!) Bad news! I’m having a “I just want to inexplicably cry all the time!” day and I need to work like a functioning adult. 😭😭😭😂😂😂😭😭😥

Work was feeling stressful this morning before it even started so here’s a quick doodle. They revamped their brushes and I feel like they express my sketchy style so much nicer. From episode 8 when brought ZYL home.

Cheating with an LLM is the easiest thing in the world for a student to do, but it creates a massive, laborious headache for a prof, if you intend to take it seriously. There’s meetings, emails, discussions, moral dilemmas. It’s just incredibly burdensome, on top of everything else right now.
I had 9 meetings about students using Chat GPT/LLMs on their papers today.
If you want to know why professors burn out, ask anyone trying to teach critical thinking and writing skills to Freshmen....

Please tell me this is fake. Does the NY Post, in New York City, really not understand the use of the word Aunt here? Does someone also need to sit them down and explain what a Play Cousin is?

I have a cold that will not leave my body. It’s not Covid, I’ve repeatedly tested. I’m just in that annoying state where it’s been 7+ days, I am technically feeling a little better, I have to get back to normal work hours, and yet I really just want to nap for about 75% of the day.

How do I summarize my feelings for #desiretheseries? It was amazing. It was occasionally incoherent. It figured out a way to visualize hormone-fights for television??? I need so much fanfic.
It’s not good, but it’s GOOD.
My taste is trash, you have been warned.
But if anyone has fic recs… 🙏
