The official R.E.M. account on other socials shared a photo today from the concert I attended at age 18 with my dad so now we're listening to New Adventures in Hi-Fi which is an underrated album and...maybe my favorite by them?

one of the best arguments against public opinion polls is that only freaks like me actually answer them

🥦Lina @broccolina.bsky.social · 1d

honestly the most antisemitic thing to happen to me with any regularity is the way that if you tell a public opinion poll taker you're jewish they immediately start asking about antisemitism, israel, and pretty much nothing else

The range of skills you need to have to be successful as a library director is massive and probably not sustainable unless we can build better support structures. The number of government functions that end up being performed by libraries is not reflected in org charts or comp.

Thanks! I actually *had* been wondering, since I don't really know a ton about the German language, but I did know that "antifa" was a German coinage.

I was just reminded that I was in this really toxic sapphic facebook group in the middle 2010s and it's just like. What a time, we were such young idiots. Then I think about what this site was like when I joined and why it felt comfortable and realize I'm still an idiot I'm just 40 now

Cairo, GA — pronounced the same as the IL one — is about an hour's drive north of here, so it's sometimes the south as well as the midwest
