Well, it happened. Had an assignment where students could earn bonus points by doing an extra part, and someone complained bitterly about having to earn the bonus. If you don’t wanna do it, don’t. Hope that helps!

I’ve been sitting outside, drinking coffee and basking in the glow of the pollen. It’s really nice out so I had the sleeves rolled up on this little t-shirt dress. Then I started getting warm, so I checked the temperature. It’s 47 degrees. I’m in the shade. I am so not built for the south.

Huh, I had no idea cyberdumpsters were magnetic. Bet those little neodymium magnets would be a nightmare to remove though.

The little raccoon on my deck who steals cat food from the visiting feral cats has decided that she wishes to be a house raccoon. To my horror, she tried to come in multiple times yesterday. No ma’am, we’re not touching, cohabitating, nuh-uh. You’re an outdoor only dumpster kitty.

At some point in the future the lore of egging houses will surface and people will be like, “Wow, what an ostentatious display of wealth to honor someone like that.”

Next week I find out if I am accepted to a program my workplace bully is in. I didn’t know they were there until after I started the application. I don’t want to interact with them, but if they were considered a good candidate and I’m not, I’ll be crushed.

Spouse is away and youngest has senior ball tonight. I only know one way to tie a tie, so I guess I’m spending this afternoon on YouTube trying to learn formal tie knows. This is a time I need Derek Guy to tell me all about knots. 🥺

Pretty sure my eldest got her drink spiked last night. As it was by a woman, I’m also pretty sure that this was a potential trafficking event.

Just received a wholly AI-generated email from admin asking all faculty to provide additional service. If you want extra time and service from us, maybe take the time to write your own damn email.

I was alone in my house today for long enough that for the first time in 18 months I could walk around unmasked. It was super weird. Haven’t been able to do that since they all stopped taking precautions. Funniest damn thing they keep getting Covid. 😒😔

It is hard to overstate my reaction on clicking on the Discover tab and seeing that “MurderBot” was the first item listed. I was ready to cuss Musk out again.

I think both the World Cup in 2026 and the Olympics in 2028 should be moved out of the US. The governing committees of both entities need to protect their athletes. None of them are safe here.

Ye gods, having to explain to grown adults that LLMs are not search engines and don’t actually think is disheartening.

The only good thing about this being a second Trump presidency is I still had my teaching materials from the last time that told students that .gov sites were no longer reputable sources of information. And I was OK with not having to deploy those again. 😒😒😒

So, last month of “freedom” before he invokes the insurrection act. Feels weird to be at work.

Student has a hallucinated source. I say I can’t find it, send me a PDF. Oops, wrong source, here’s the right one. Great, resend your work with parenthetical citations. He thinks he’s getting away with something. I’ve just taught him a shit ton about research and made him read a 60 page chapter.

Repost please! This guy was out yesterday in O’Fallon Illinois. Let’s pass this around so his boss can see what a nazi is.

I know it would be catastrophic for us, but I’d really like it if the rest of the world’s response to Trump’s tariffs was standing there and waiting for him to break and blink. No sense negotiating with a lying bully.

Why is it that I offer my students choices of films like Get Out, but they’re all, “Oooh, can I do Lilo and Stitch instead?” Do you think those films are anywhere near the same? Be so fr rn omgggg
