Two thoughts:
1. "gangle-on-gangle violence" is going to make me laugh randomly for days
2. "1." i'm guessing it's a short poem on a tall man. stands out appropriately.

love the sunday blog power team.

Congrats! I felt the same way about pre-writing the acknowledgements, and I think all of my students over the years have too, so you're not alone.

Had 4 prez, 3 searches, at my large R1 and we never considered anyone internal (excl brief interim). Each one started with a new strategic plan with little tie to our mission or strengths, and each has brought non-local SVPs to ignore faculty. Result: Avg prez tenure is < avg time to graduation.

this is just rank cowardice, the student very obviously disregarded the instructions and the assignment to antagonize her peers and instructors and provoke this exact reaction, society simply can’t function when the people in charge scurry like kicked dogs every time some troll bully says boo

comparing to 3UT on any of the previous days (links at bottom) it seems like you have to be right!

it's awfully generous of you to credit him as being "ratfucked." he was grinning about it today, he and most of them are all on board with it to save the fillibuster

All "Ron"s would then have the option of going by "Nert." A good day for Ronerts everywhere.

(I meant to say what I almost said, and assure you that the awkward extra word, left behind after a rewrite, is a wry joke about editors. Def not a fuckup)

Good luck @tomscocca.bsky.social, I will miss the podcast and the nonfiction but I am glad to know that your editing will provide be shaping and honing the news for a much wider audience.

Congrats, man, that was a fuckton of determination.

I saw your cheney-mash post this morning and I thought 'wow, incredible what trail brain can accomplish' and now I know that it was just Rusty brain.

People don’t grasp that Trump is actually a poster. He’s the only president like this so far, it’s fascinating

Sometimes he just says shit because it will make a good post, he doesn’t mean it. Sometimes it still filters down into policy because he decides he believes it after it gets a lot of likes

he's almost nailed the "colonel lockjaw" look. keep at it, buddy! that hair could be shittier!
