In no particular order, I’m a University Librarian, Dean, political scientist, game player and an Edmonton Oilers fan. I don't post a lot and don’t use social media to discuss politics. I think that is better done in person.

Amazing tennis from both Sinner and Alcaraz. Incredible comeback by Alcaraz. One of the best Grand Slam finals I’ve ever watched.

Off to a tie break in the fifth set. What an epic final.

Stu, maybe just let the defence handle the puck the rest of the game.

What Is a Predatory Journal? See: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcPv...

Really enjoyed this great chat with @mollythomastv.bsky.social on @bigiftrue.bsky.social

Fake and predatory journals are doing really harm! A growing problem that requires immediate policy action!

And now Hyman goes off. Maybe Season 2 of The Pitt can just take place in the Oilers dressing room.
