Eight hours work, eight hours rest, eight hours for what you will. Happy May Day.

As soon as we get close to summer it seems like there are construction crews all over Pittsburgh

Brief storm this evening was no joke

@6nop.bsky.social Um did I just see you with a chainsaw taking out an enormous uprooted tree hanging off a power line?????

Adulthood is fucking baffling

Seeing grants you want to apply for..but wondering whether the call willl get canceled. Whats the meme for this feeling?

Male social physical affection during sports is good and should be experienced in more contexts (with appropriate norms and consent).

Another day, another failed attempt to speak to a publicly funded body because they can't be bothered answering the bloody phone.

Ongoing nationwide power outages in Portugal and Spain are impacting Internet traffic. Traffic dropped by as much as 30% in Portugal and 37% in Spain at 10:30 UTC. We are continuing to monitor the situation.

Oof a this one affects me deeply. Do you know how many times a well-meaning parent hears I’m a professor and tells me how their kid is finishing half of college in high school? And I have to support their pride while dying inside with my little soc of ed theories about development and learning?

For the weird community of people who listen to background noise while working (hello "whale sounds" and "river sounds") I just discovered Rowing Boat and it is AMAZING.

"Piss on carpet" made me laugh out loud
