How many times do you have to tell people exactly what you’re going to do before they finally believe you?

Forty years may be a bit conservative, but the general observation feels right.

We’re partnering w/ a number of groups participating in an #economicblackout THIS Friday, 2/28. Do not spend, if possible. No Starbucks on your way to work. No drinks w/ the coworkers after work. No dining out. No Walmart run. No quick McDonald’s drive-thru hit. Hurt their wallets!

I just learned about this effort to combat rising costs of living.

After being trapped at home for a week by snow, ice, and frigid temperatures, I had to celebrate the reappearance of the sun and balmy weather by breaking out this shirt for class tonight. 😉

I’m at the gym riding a bike and occasionally glancing at the television in front of me while thinking how exceedingly difficult it must be for Fox News to keep track of so many contradictory narrative threads.

I’d like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for Arthur Smalls, who even in times of authoritarian chaos, remains a true and steadfast friend.

I’m new to Bluesky and thought I’d introduce myself. I work in #highered and write about #yalit and #comics. I’m currently working on a book that examines what #yafiction can teach us about how to live in the #Anthropocene. When I’m not writing and reading, I #teach Razorbacks.
