Oh, this is giving me strong childhood flashbacks. (Positive flashbacks.)

I feel this.

A random woman at the coffee shop just told me I'm "very pretty, by the way." I'm not sure anyone has EVER called me pretty in my life. On the other hand, I still have vertigo from an ear infection even though I'm on antibiotics.

I tend to agree with your important takes, but a soul patch is not going to catch that much soup. That is the job of a full beard. (Photo of my Shadow with his white soul patch.)

My therapist shares tips to minimize doomscrolling. Like that's realistic.

I absolutely agree with you, AND I'm glad it isn't even colder!

We live in two different worlds: one where facts matter and DC is relatively safe, and a second where someone with brown skin and a gun is lurking around every corner waiting to shoot someone white.

I read this as pastaologist and now I think I need to go back to school to study pastaology.

Also, what are the chances that the spending cuts are on weaponry vs on personnel costs?

The one in the bottom left corner --really? That one was new to me.

I adore this idea.

Yeah. I'd think that the fact that everyone else was willing to be fired means that they weren't looking for a coworker to fall on this sword. It's like someone tried to implement the prisoner's dilemma but didn't really understand how that works.

I'm on my phone so it's difficult for me to check this myself: any chance the named partner is a (white?) man and the more junior attorney is a woman (of color?)?

Plus measles. How long do we think it will be before someone gets their hands on a vial of smallpox?

My first reaction when seeing this post: what does the green team have to do with RFK Jr? Poor RFK, having his good name smeared.

I think I saw something about USAID being important in keeping Ebola out of the US so that'll be a fun way to die.

Absolutely. It's horrifying. And terrifying. And I don't understand at all why anyone supports this.

Yet section 1 states that "Six in 10 Americans have at least one chronic disease, and four in 10 have two or more chronic diseases. An estimated one in five United States adults lives with a mental illness." So...

Exactly. They don't want homeless people or people with disabilities or anyone working for the government, so they need to kill everyone who isn't in perfect health to open up private sector jobs.

Well, NOW my settings will prevent it.

That's what I thought as well, but I limited the search to just the last 90 days, and I still had one missing alt text. I thought my settings were supposed to not allow that.

This is true. I keep following this person because my annoyance at him posting things without attribution reminds me that I need to use information literacy skills on things I agree with, too.

I need to stop arguing on FB, but my nutbar high school classmate makes arguing too tempting.

I've been contemplating whether we should treat ourselves as their constituents (like they seem to want us to) and make daily calls, or whether that would just make things worse for us.

So thank you, thank you, thank you, whichever brilliant person shared this information.

I appreciate this content among the serious posts from you and everyone else. Cute baby pachyderms are a good reminder that only 99.8% of the world is a flaming hellscape.

Oh my goodness!! I'm glad you're doing better and very sorry your body put you through that!

I hear that. And it's an important reminder to me that I don't need to say every thought that pops into my mind. (I thought the ADHD meds were supposed to help with that.)

I'm so sorry; that was not my intent at all, and I communicated poorly.

Which is to say: I'm probably wrong that those people think that librarianship isn't a serious profession.
comment in response to

Those people MIGHT mean "librarians need a degree?" BUT I'm the white person in this photo on my LIS program's website, and I graduated 10 years ago. It's like they kept that photo up because they don't have newer photos of Black students??

Oh, I am so sorry. We don't get to have our furry family members for nearly long enough.
