This is so niche, but it's also SO GOOD.

Can confirm. 😂😂😂

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

Ben shows that if you've been paying taxes since NEH's founding in 1965, your total lifetime tax contributions to the only agency dedicated to funding the humanities in the United States could instead have covered a single tank of gas in your car. Ben was NEH's data scientist until last month.

Hi friends! We're hoping to move back to the Midwest to be closer to family in Madison, WI. If you see anything in MN, WI, or Chicago that might be a good fit for me (interdisciplinary DS/ND research) or a mid-career instructional design librarian, please keep me and my partner in mind! Thanks. 🙏

I am *begging* people to look up the actual history of the Luddite movement with it being bandied about everywhere. They weren't anti-tech, they were anti-exploitation, anti-Industrialist, pro-worker safety textile worker radicals who disabled factory machines that were maiming and killing workers.

living through 2025 and having to wake up, go to work, handle responsibilities etc feels like this

Need to speak with someone at DHS urgently. If that’s you or someone you know, I’m marisakabas.04 on Signal or email [email protected]

Me, to my partner: I suppose this is a niche reference. My partner: (looking at it and laughing) No one knows Firewind!

I spent some time this morning playing piano and singing like I don't care, and I think I need to do this every day.

FUTURE'S CALLING US. AND I, I'LL SET THE WORLD ON FIRE I WILL RISE THROUGH THE WIND AND I, I'LL SET THE WORLD ON FIRE WORLDS COLLIDING IN ME SET THE WORLD ON FIRE!

I had to decide today about attending graduation, which required some deep reflection about what would be healthy and celebratory for me, and who my community really is right now.

We want to reiterate: we're a publication running on a shoestring budget and we're still able to pay our writers an average amount, we could have a better ecosystem. If you have any passion for something that falls within out purview, we're happy to hear it. www.animefeminist.com/anifam/submi...

Friday at last…

BREAKING: Judge grants a temporary restraining order to stop the shutdown of the Institute for Museum and Library Sciences thanks to a case brought by AFSCME, @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social & @democracyforward.org This is a victory for our nation's library and museum workers.

If you don't read the alt text on these posts, you are absolutely missing out.

Its the ease with which universities have suddenly the money to pay for AI subscriptions, AI professorships, AI workshops, AI everything while they reassure us that "there is no money" to pay grad students and precarious faculty living wages.

Libraries have all sorts of things, from tools to workshops, and so much more. Some of us will even chat about your Diablo build for season 8! But libraries are also facing significant funding cuts and need support at the local and federal levels. Call your reps or join your library board to help.

Seriously, my own school doesn't seem to know I graduated? I don't care that I wasn't celebrated at the party, I don't care that people don't know that I finished my PhD, but I could seriously do without all the emails that require me to inform people that I graduated and no longer work there.

I used to have a huge garden, and it was a ton of work every day in hot humid weather. Then pickling, canning, making jam, blanching and freezing vegetables, dehydrating, carefully arranging things in the cold part of the basement - it took 5ever. And we still needed lots of other groceries!

There is an open letter along with some action steps available at the site linked below.

How many emails must a new alum send Before you call them a grad? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind

As an anthropologist, if the only thing I ever did all day was remind people that before the privatization and commodification of land humans had way more free time and peace of mind, it would still not do a dent in how deep this myth has burrowed into people's colonized minds like a parasite
