On day one of the holiday drive back to Michigan and saw not one, not two, but five people throw banana peels out of their windows on the highway. Mario Kart bullshit

Obviously Luigi’s mistake was shooting that CEO. If he had instead stabbed him 20 times, Josh Shapiro would have let him go free.

Look, I'm as surprised as the rest of y'all--but, to be fair, "universal healthcare" does, in fact, mean for everyone, including manosphere mind-poisoned gymbros. And class solidarity does, in fact, mean solidarity with people who might have bad/incomplete ideologies.

I do a Nuzlocke run of Pokémon when I travel sometimes and got an Ultra Sun win (somehow), and it inspired me to state that Alola is underrated af Top tier OST, legitimately hard even without Nuzlocke rules/Necrozma, great villains, and Ultra Beasts are such a cool damn concept

The saddest part of traveling home the day after Thanksgiving is no leftovers. Instead I’m just stranded in the airport eating a sad breakfast sandwich like an idiot, waiting for a plane that may or may not ever arrive from Milwaukee.

Turns out the #Lions can probably win a Thanksgiving game when it’s not a waxing gibbous moon.

Nothing makes me happier to have pre-check than flying right before Thanksgiving. Getting through TSA in Philly in 5 minutes instead of 45. Just a scintillating taste of what it feels like to be landed gentry.

Gave Alien: Romulus another watch to see if my opinion would improve upon a second viewing…and it hasn’t. David Jonsson is incredible, and there are a couple excellent moments, but most of it is either painfully flat or downright painful. Genuinely liked Covenant more.

Another really fabulous APT in the books. And amidst the incredible scholarship, thought-provoking conversations, and shenanigans with friends…the best discovery may have been finding an Indian restaurant with goat cheese naan

I’m a very frequent flyer, but this trip to APT is the first time I’ve ever connected through Dulles, and these strange giant dune buggies that shuttle people between terminals are both ridiculous and hilarious.

Checked in for my flight to APT tomorrow, only to realize that I booked a 6am departing flight for reasons only known to my deranged past self. I’m sure I had a good reason but I also want to go back in time to slap myself in the face.

Conclusions are by far my least favorite part of academic writing, mostly because I’m out of steam by the time I get to it and it feels redundant. “Here’s a quick synopsis of what you just read, here’s some things I might write about in the future, end on a pithy witticism and goodbye.”

A new open-access journal, Public Humanities, has launched. I'm proud to have a piece in the inaugural "Manifesto" issue, on "The Necessity of Public Writing." I hope academo-friends will read, circulate, propose, and submit. doi.org/10.1017/pub....
