I was seeing an American woman while in Lima and suggested seeing a Latin American movie (because I was cool & hip to local culture...) that had gotten a high rating in the local paper. I skimmed the synopsis & took her to see evangelical anti-abortion propaganda: es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punto_y...

If I don’t text back, call back, or email back, it is because I am in hardcore IQMR-prep mode (not as a participant anymore 🤓, but as a coordinator 😎) Two more days to go! 🔥

I don't know if bsky is a good platform for political debate. But as a replacement for academic twitter -- if the 10-skeet response to this by @dandekadt.bsky.social , complete with tables & maps, doesn't make your heart go pitter patter on a Monday morning, I don't know what will.

Another thing to mention for people who don't live in LA. Most of LA is very chill and peaceful right now. There's a huge Pride fest going on, countless farmer's markets, tourists walking around, families at the parks, people walking their dogs. It's a big place.
