This speaks volumes:

Really wish this were true. Is he the biggest problem with the Jays? No. But I just get a sense that he's not *not* a problem.

Wow. I'm curious if the FO leaks the deal they had on the table. It would potentially poison the relationship, but would also set the floor for any team that would be considering signing him in as a FA.
I'm impressed by how Vladdy handled everything this morning.

He's drawn a clear line on his number, which he says the #BlueJays were not close to, but multiple times he made it clear that he wants to keep distractions away from his team and that he wants to be in Toronto.

Remember when the Raptors had a Huskies uniform and awesome blue warm up suits? Remember when I had a job that I could stand on the court under the basket during the warm ups before the game and snap a picture like this? Man, I miss that job sometimes.

I'm super proud of the final project that my visual studies students created this year. IG: @theprogressum is an online social media performance culminating in an interactive media installation that took the form of a summoning ritual.

For the past 4 weeks, my students have been performing on social media as a tech cult known as The Progressum. This was all in the lead up to an interactive installation presented today, where their god was being summoned by encouraging visitors to sit and browse their phones while they charge them.

Wow.

This video is truly eye-opening.

Just found this image and it seems like a succinct way to think about how to write alt text for images.

Also, writing the alt text for an image about writing alt text is a very meta-activity which I quite enjoyed.

Re: “echo chambers”
Thank you Mina
Harassment, racism, and engagement farming are not “a difference of opinion.”

Had a chance to talk about BlueSky on Pablo’s pod—and why the echo chamber argument mischaracterizes what’s actually going on.
