Uline's owners are the 2nd biggest political donors to Trump, so found a non-MAGA alt rec'd on Reddi: EcoEnclose. For shipping boxes for original comic art, so I got EXACTLY the size I wanted. It's half the price once you add in shipping to my house from Uline. EcoEnc $120.32 vs Uline $238.38.

Stocked up on charcoal and BBQ smoking wood. We've got guests coming next weekend, and I'm crossing my fingers so hard that the weather is good enough to smoke this pork belly I got on sale!

I currently have two fully-funded PhD opportunities in my lab - both providing a chance to work on the incredible LEAF data set that we have been collecting the last couple of years (220 children followed longitudinally from 10-30 months on measures of attention and early EF). Please share!

Unconditional love doesn't mean unconditional tolerance

You don't have to be good at something to enjoy doing it

You don't have to meet requirements to be loved

You'll feel better after a shower & snack

Tell your friends/family you love them

Gotta be bad before you can be good at something

For all federal employees:

Before you are locked out of your systems, ensure you have copies of unclassified performance appraisals, awards & other relevant personnel docs.

If you have access to your office, grab your more important personal items sooner rather than later.

Early morning Mount Fuji. I love the twilight light from the opposite direction of a sunrise, especially with mountains. This was late autumn season, when I saw lots of autumn leaves at the bottom of the lake. Taken with a CPL to make them visible.

This beef noodle soup is a pile of leftovers from my fridge. Half an onion, 3/4 of a tomato, part of a carrot. Even the beef stock was made from leftover bones I had stockpiled in a baggie in my freezer. It turned out delicious!

It's gonna take more than deleting your accounts. From EFF:

"If these changes—or Meta’s long history of anti-competitive, censorial, and invasive practices—make you want to cut ties with the company, it’s sadly not as simple as deleting your Facebook account or spending less time on Instagram."

There are only *three* reference librarians for the largest film library in the world!

They told me they automatically digitize all Umatic (3/4”) tapes because it’s so hard to find playback machines! And they showed me some paper prints! blogs.loc.gov/now-see-hear...

A reminder as Musk-bots, Trump-bots, and other bots start hitting Bluesky: blocking users removes their replies from your posts entirely.

The correct way of handlin antagonizing parties is to block. Not reply. Not dunk. Not mute. Block. It stops their reach and effectiveness right there.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts?

Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from.

Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!
