Creator of/FT wrangler/“Mom!?!?!” of a small human, former higher ed professional, timed out Ph.D. candidate, and cemetery relocator. Trying to figure things out in our almost apocalyptic hellscape - is this where I just shake my fist and yell at the sky?

Edward Said is figuratively rolling over in his grave over what Columbia University is doing to its outspoken professoriate and students.

Not all ice chewers are psychopaths. 🤪

Most of us are just anemic. Once I started taking iron supplements, the ice chewing tendencies fell away. Such a weird symptom.

Instead, I am supposed to prove that I am not some kind of bot. Have I mentioned that I have always hated the *prove you are human* feature of sites because it was one of the earliest free ways to train our future overlords?
