Sign that it’s end of semester crunch time? I was half way to campus when I realized I forgot to put on makeup. At least I’m not still in my pjs. I’ll take it as a win.

I saw Wicked Part 1 this afternoon. I do recommend the film but don’t go expecting a whimsical escape. It hits very close to home for 2024. (My full review is on FB).

So impressed with my students. The theme of our semester is media consolidation/ownership. I walked into class yesterday and they are all discussing the Comcast/ NBCUniversal spinoff news.

In light of John Krasinski being named People’s Sexiest Man Alive I will issue the following hot take: Jim was the Scranton Strangler. All those pranks on Dwight were escalating behavior. I’ll die on this hill.
