The conspiracy theories always have us getting paid so much more I almost wish they were true 😅

In 1918 the German Army reported 14,000 flu related deaths.

Bro I’m just on the thread conversing. Also weird I have to say this to a psychologist but often one topic can contain or gesture towards other topics.

It’s not even in my top 100 but adjunctification, lack of research support, and the total lack of consideration by TT faculty are in my top 5.

I mean that they should pay contributors, clearly.

What about those of us who have contingent positions and aren’t paid for research, and need to find external funding to do our work? We‘re literally excluded from The Conversation.

btw, the only reason picnic vol 2. isn't on sale yet is that Alma has to glue a copy of an illustration into all 300 magazines because our printer said it was "too pornographic."

if you guys are into that sort of thing

How do you know what transitioning feels like?

Who needs gay Klingons?

You know I’m trans because I entered a fight because of transphobia but I stayed in the fight because of disrespect to Star Trek canon.

Now I’m just pissed at the disrespect to Trek canon 😅😂

In fact the thing I am accusing you of, which you keep making more and more clear, is having a totally incorrect understanding of Trill biology, identity and sociality. Also not that it’s particularly relevant but Jadzia Dax is canonically bisexual.

What would happen if you acknowledged that when Jadzia merged with another symbiotic species, she changed as an organism and a person?

Literally re-watch Star Trek the whole thing is that the Trill inherently change when they take on symbionts there are multiple episodes about Trill having anxiety about this very thing. Why are you so resistant to the word “transition” what about that scares you so much?

Mixing overly sweet red wine with seltzer is a time honored tradition (with a squeeze of lemon, ideally) but I can’t speak to the protein aspect.

Trump administration orders dismantling of the U.S. Forest Service Late Tuesday afternoon, with the subtlety of a wrecking ball and the morality of a foreclosure notice, the Trump administration announced the most devastating attack on the U.S. Forest Service in the ...

Amidst everything else, the Trump regime has quietly killed off the U.S. Forest Service 🌲

Dax is the shared symbiont, when Jadzia becomes Jadzia Dax, her identity is changing, including her experience of gender, as well as Dax’s experience of gender. You might say their shared experience… transitions 🤨

The author, a white guy with a mustache in a red took reading from a comic about the film Daddy Dearest at Pete’s Candy Store.

I don’t have a good caption for this one but it’s a nice picture, from the Rally reading last week. I like reading my comics aloud and don’t get to do it very often!

How many times will we have to keep quoting the direct words of the Trump-Vance team’s mediator? It is insane the low regard these people hold us in

This is the type of friendship I am looking for. Very specifically.

Please invite me lol

I can’t believe you haven’t yet 😱

@cassiusa.bsky.social’s take on Animorphs is still the right one. I guess this means I finally have to read Animorphs!

I’ve never been interested in writing for TV but let’s be real Ryan Coogler never rebooted X Files and Animorphs before 🧐

3 months if you’re lucky

HarperCollins doesn't even have enough editors to edit the quantity of books they keep buying. They don't have a marketing infrastructure that markets a book for more than 3 months at a time. But sure, let's create a solution for a problem that doesn't exist.
