Oh also I was on the hook for apparently lying about two things: being a faculty member and whether my university is a government agency or authority

Going specifically where there are more Black users and doing brazenly anti-Black shit is a very specific choice

Didn't expect my arrival in Portland to start with me arguing with a hotel about whether my state-issued university ID that says "FACULTY/STAFF" on it was evidence that I am a student who is lying about being faculty because . . . I don't look like a professor

Important PSA from @scalzi.com and his hype man (me): EMPATHY IS COOL, ACTUALLY

From L.A.'s Eastside to "The Edge of Space-Time" In her new book, Chanda Prescod-Weinstein explores the cosmos, climate change and who gets to go to the moon — with doses of “Alice in Wonderland” and Dodgers baseball, too.

Thanks to @nadrakn.bsky.social for this piece about my relationship to California & how it shapes my space-time:
