My friend Bennett had a birthday party with a collage station to make a custom cards. Consequently, I discovered I like collaging yesterday! Also, all parties should have a collage station.

"Israel’s policies and actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide in Article II of the United Nations Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948)". Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, genocide scholars' association says - www.reuters.com/world/middle...

New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.

Look at Friedland's face when Torres "rejects the notion" of Israel having the policy of killing civilians seeking aid.

Lesson in my forties: literally nothing is hotter than confidence. And conference is not the same as cockiness. Confident people are usually ego-less or ego-neutral.

An interesting study, especially for its speculation on why lesbians don’t see the same outperformance as gays. Re: the latter, this line struck a chord with my own experience: “stressors possibly unnerve gay males into compensating for homophobia through academic striving.”

This is an Intro to Film course, so I’m just using a textbook, but it’s one I like quite a bit (The Film Experience). That said, ancillary markets are just a blip in this chapter, tucked under Distribution in the second chapter.

With regard to the blogs, eventually they disappeared, and Doug died a second digital death—six or seven years after his actual death.
John Paul Stadler (@johnpaulstadler.bsky.social)
I hate the way the digital haunts us with the dead. Still thinking about the way my first boyfriend’s blogs lived on for years after his suicide, or the way that today Telegram told me a deceased relative had just joined (presumably b/c someone who now has their phone number did).

Y’all. 7 years of using the horrific course management system Moodle, and I’ve never been able to figure out how to add extra credit to a quiz/exam. I finally buckled this year and asked tech support for help. Their answer: “You can’t add extra credit to a quiz in Moodle.” Moodle, I curse thee.

I wish BSKY listened when I say I want to see fewer self-avowed “liberals” posting outrage MAGA bait on here. It’s not that I don’t agree or feel outrage in our present moment, but that I find it tedious and navel gazing if that’s the one thing you do all day, every day, forever and ever amen.
