A new bat coronavirus that has the capacity to spread to humans, similar to the one that caused the COVID-19 pandemic, has been discovered by a Chinese researcher. Good thing we are completely prepared this time. www.newsweek.com/new-coronavi...

Student AI’d an essay that hallucinated quotes from hooks and Lorde, and no son we are not doing that, thank you. You wanna make shit up about Althusser, be my guest, but not hooks or Lorde.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

This student… bless ‘em, they’re trying, but grading this essay draft was like, “Hi words, I suppose you’re wondering why you’ve all been called here today. Is there any chance that any of you could rearrange yourselves into a recognizable order?”

This is the JCS Chairman that Hegseth intends to fire. I'm sure you've seen this commercial before.

Student emailed me, demanding to know what his peer review feedback meant. Honey, I’m not your peer and that there isn’t my feedback.

Me: Why am I so anxious? World: I’m superheating! Government: Some of your fam aren’t human anymore and we want to deport others, you disgusting female Germs: Out here cooking up 18 new pandemics for ya! Coffee: You only had six espressos, why stop now! Me: Guess I should deep breathe about it or

You know, I constantly question my competence. I assess and reassess whether I’m doing a reasonable job and if I know enough to do my job. Yes, I know it’s imposter syndrome. AND THEN I SEE TRUMP’S FUCKING CABINET.

Job update: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

After several years of trying to get LA theatres to pick this play up, I just have to produce it myself. Please help me do that by bringing Hattie McDaniel’s play BOULEVARD OF BOLD DREAMS to the Hollywood stages 2026. Even if it’s $1,2,5 you all can help make that happen. gofund.me/16dad633

As always, @chriswarcraft.bsky.social is a real one.

Me, checking the news from bed every day to find out if Mad King Gorge is room temperature yet.

For a piece I'm working on reporting, if you're studying library science or are working in a library (especially if you're earlyish in your career), I'd love to speak about what you're hearing & experiencing right now. You can be anonymous. [email protected] or Signal rstauff.20

Not gonna lie, I’m torn between thinking I should get really buff for the resistance and that we’re all gonna be starving soon anyway so who wants cinnamon rolls for dinner?

Sharing for no reason whatsoever.

BREAKING: Massive protest rallies are happening today across the country, blasting DOGE and the guy that nobody voted for. There will even be a protest at SpaceX headquarters. SPREAD THE WORD. 🙏💪

🔥 WATCH: “The bear is attacking, mate. You can poke it all you want it’s already killing people. It’s such an unhelpful analogy.” @mrjamesob.bsky.social dismantles a caller excusing Putin’s behavior and victim-blaming Ukraine Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGQ6NzO...

If Republican congresspeople abdicate their duties of oversight, investigation, and power of the purse, shouldn’t they be impeached? It seems they are facilitating the dissolution of the Constitution, which to my uninformed eye appears to be treason.

I would like my slo-mo crash out montage to be scored by Daniel Powter’s “So You Had a Bad Day” please.

I am legit ready to quit my job today.

Student is upset that accelerated, half-semester course is *checks complaint* very fast-paced and trying to fit a semester’s work into *reviews notes* a half semester.
