A student today said that if LeBron James can do it, so can they. I know I should be supportive but I couldn’t help the incredulous “really?!” that escaped me.

Two lockdowns in one day for my kids… one at college, one high school. I am absolute goo. We live in a very sick world.

Congrats!! Don’t you wish they’d move the proposal deadline by 6 months?!

So many academics are on Substack and maybe, ya know, you should get off it... Stop letting your voice be curated by this:

I’d love to see data on this. I have two kids who applied to two schools and one school. Their friends are applying to maybe 2-5 schools. Who are the kids doing 8+ applications?

And Five Calls makes it easy!!

A cat made out of snow with four humans behind it.

Inspired by @taraslominski.bsky.social , meet Marshmallow.

I condone theft in cases as cute as this. How could you not steal those ears?!

Absolutely adorable and correct.

Oh damn.

Yes, but how many times have they not worked it out?! I assume 0, but... incomplete stats are incomplete!

This was a fantastic discussion, so much so that I ordered the book.

Hmmm. Trying to decide if I am the rot, because I am generally mad at everything! I love my teaching and research, but everyday someone above me makes it harder.

That sounds amazing!!!

MAR10 = date today

MARIO = dunna dunna dunna

For a hot moment I thought you’d taken your shoes off and I was gonna have to unfollow you. Thank goodness that was my old eyes playing tricks.

Possibly because Fargo will go remove the snow or ice and then charge it to the homeowner!

As a fellow pedestrian this sucks and I’m sorry. And thank you for trying to do something! Fargo has a report app that I’ve used a couple of times successfully.

Useful absolutely! The simulation graphs are difficult to see in tandem on a phone. Is it important to show all of them? Unsure. I think the last few screens were the $$ shot. Less is more?

If she starts digging a long,deep hole in your backyard…. Run!

These contracts b/t AI co and universities infuriate me. Our budgets are thin and declining, we can’t invest in the people who do the work: the teaching, learning, the support. Yet we can drop millions each year to companies that already have tax breaks and are raking in profits.

Hey you - yeah you! See below and then go write an abstract to join us in June. It's all online, and full of great ideas and inspiration.

As Marisa says: leave Substack.

I just assume elections won’t happen.

And I will again ask for folks who live in solid, secure blue states to donate to progressive orgs in blue states.

This sucks! If you wanna chip in to help us tackle this again in November... follow: www.facebook.com/togetherfors...

I get the excitement, but n=1 doesn't mean cows use tools...

Me, too!

Yeah! Getting our (informal) science on!
