Before you say something mean about Henry Kissinger, take a breath and see if you can think of something meaner

If you've fallen out of practice of wearing a mask, this would be a good week to start again! COVID rates are rising because of a new variant, and because many people will have gotten sick over Thanksgiving. Your best protection is wearing a high quality mask.

Got a concussion and couldn't make it to family thanksgiving this year and honestly I prefer the concussion

A proof in a textbook that concludes "Is that important? Why? This completes the proof."

"Where am I? What am I doing? This completes the proof."

This is how I learned you can block people on Spotify now so I can finally block the person I've been wanting to block for ages

Not really a fan of traveling usually but I actually had a great time at this conference

Packing 7 pairs of socks for a 48 hour trip, like a totally normal person

I tried burying my head in some sand and wow everything was so much better

The 4 seasons total landscaping press conference was 3 years ago today...

Yeah understandable. I hope it goes well!

I think just email and ask? I'm sure they're used to it

I don’t live in fear, but I do hang out there a lot

I got one of my departments TA teaching awards this year :)

Omg your mom left the church and is queer now? Icon

God is a prankster

It seems only right that my conservative Christian parents would end up with all 3 of their children being queer

Repeat after me: I am not “bad” or “naughty” for eating Halloween candy. It is appropriate for me to enjoy a treat for the holiday. When I use moralizing language like this around children, I communicate to them that their enjoyment of food is wrong or shameful.

no one should ever have expected good things from a church named IHOP

Keep in mind that this is the same man who said that Hitler was sent by God to punish Israel for not accepting Jesus as messiah. Mike Bickle everyone

Apparently some current followers of said cult leader are defending him by saying that he's being attacked for supporting Israel. Fucking rank

I gave this talk today, I think it actually went pretty well but what do I know

The diameter of the bomb was thirty centimeters and the diameter of its effective range about seven meters, with four dead and eleven wounded. And around these, in a larger circle of pain and time, two hospitals are scattered and one graveyard. But the young woman who was buried in the city she came from, at a distance of more than a hundred kilometers, enlarges the circle considerably, and the solitary man mourning her death at the distant shores of a country far across the sea includes the entire world in the circle. And I won’t even mention the crying of orphans that reaches up to the throne of God and beyond, making a circle with no end and no God.

yehuda amichai's the diameter of the bomb is in my head today

actually it is kinda shocking, I knew he was a shithead in many ways but wasn't really expecting this

oh the leader of the cult I grew up in has been credibly accused of decades of sexual abuse with multiple victims? shocked and surprised (not)

The eye of sauron is in Indiana now

Attempting to write a talk that's a "gentle introduction" to my little niche research area, wish me luck

Every few months I also consider getting an eyebrow piercing
