The cover of Volume 51, Issue 4 of the James Joyce Quarterly, the only literary journal dedicated to Joycean scholarship. It has a cartoon depicting a man in glasses, a tux, and a top hat standing at the base of stairs looking up at a woman elegantly draped in a white ballgown, who is standing at the top of the stairs looking away from him.

I'm rereading an article in the JJQ from 2014 that I've been thinking about ever since my first read. It's how I'm pleasing my brain this morning before work.

The article? "The Bog of Allen, the Tiber River, and the Pontine Marshes: An ecocritical reading of 'The Dead,'" by James Fairhall. #NerdJoy

Does anyone else get a perverse thrill when their followers/following count does something mathematically elegant?

for a while mine was exactly a ratio of 1:2 and I swear I based my follow back strategy entirely on maintaining that for a month. #Mathsky #NerdJoy

The new version of Hazel from @noodlesoft.com supports webdav uploads and so now I have fully automated all of my document sorting all the way into the proper folder in NextCloud and it feels so good.

it's the one thing I needed since I dropped devonthink for a central server.

Also, there is some amount of #nerdjoy in reading huge chunks of text, writeups by other nerds, and later making connections in an unrelated situation and solving problems ( and usually people thinking you have some cheat code).

So excited. Today is the Final Symphony I got my ticket for awhile ago. Music from Final Fantasy VI, VII, and X. Performed by the Royal Scottish Orchestra. #NerdJoy #FinalFantasy
