Need some fish facts?
One of my neighbors has been putting up these fish facts posters. All kinds of different fish, marine, freshwater, deep, shallow, all kinds. This is a good one. “Stg this real fish” took me out. Good work, neighbor.

I'm not a biblical scholar, but I think "Don't take the Lord's name in vain" is less about yelling "Jesus effing Christ!" when you stub your toe, and more about calling yourself a "Christian" while starving the hungry, denying medicine to the sick, and being violently hostile to immigrants.

I find it funny that the History Department supplies are paper and envelopes, while Philosophy Department supplies are Kleenex and Advil.

A blessing from KD Lang and Leonard Cohen, to my friends and loved ones fighting an obscene evil.

I feel this so very much and also simultaneously feel like one way we're going to get through all of this is to have artists and writers and musicians chucking in to create space for others to experience joy and rest for a moment before going out to fight again in the world. Creation is resistance.
