Bumping this so anyone wondering who just followed them knows that yes I am the person who always liked your post 5 seconds after you posted it on Twitter and also my contributions to this site are 90% dressing up a naked Kakashi statue (10% Dr Pepper experiments and caramelizing onions)

Update: they did in fact get me with their bullshit as usual and I bought a tortilla candle. I made it out of HEB without further bullshit just to later get got by Dr Pepper cotton candy when my guard was down.
Every time I think “this time they won’t get me with their new bullshit” and then they absolutely get me with their new bullshit I will 1000% end up buying this and like Dr Pepper flavored sushi next time I’m there
HEB has new butter tortilla car air fresheners, and you know what? okay.

Yoinking the 'ghost' tag from Haunted Hill to one more deserving. Endlessly bleak + dreadful, jaw-dropping scares - this isn't 'jump scare' manipulation, Pulse just flays, cutting thru the silicone hardware to the vast emptiness beneath that's hungry and selfish.

A student just unprovoked brought up “Kakashi sensei from Naruto” in a lecture on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She has no idea what she has just unleashed. My chart on the type of third wave therapy each hokage needs most is going in next week’s slides for sure.

Chuckled at this, secure in the knowledge it had nothing to do with me, then went back to finishing up my class slides for next week by adding pictures of my cats staged to mimic stock photos
Concerned that we are losing the necessary ratio. 15% of teachers/faculty should be irretrievably strange eccentrics. Every learning experience should have some element where in later life you can reflect with former classmates about how bizarre at least one (1) class per year was.

I would read an academic murder book in which the murder was solved by reading the syllabus
I love this idea and also want a list of academic murder books. Please reply with recs
Hear me out: a dark academia murder book that opens at a department beginning-of-the-year celebration on a boat (I know a department that does this) and a professor goes overboard. The intrepid department chair must figure out who did it. Everyone is a suspect, including the chair herself.

It's apt that corporations/governments divided the internet into SFW and NSFW & are now making it all Safe For Work, because that is the defining frame they want to place on the world--everywhere you go is for Work, not pleasure or art or love or culture. You must always Work for Them, or die.
