Here are Mats and Theo in their new Halloween box.

I’ll do the SPCA of Wake co. It’s where we got this guy

Oh fun. 🙄

(I know I’m not the first to make the joke… but I couldn’t help myself.)

It is a truly awesome cover, and I pre-ordered it. If you ever call me hysterical, my uterus will free itself from the confines of your body and beat you within an inch of your life. Feral? eh, yeah, probably. 😁

I may or may not feel called out by this... not with DMB, of course...

My students and I watched that film. One student hates it, which is always awesome! (I really like it).

I teach college and a lot of my students are excited when I talk genre fiction. Increasingly, I’m finding students who’ve newer read a whole novel. It’s not just the subject matter. Their teachers aren’t readers either.

Honestly, one way is to talk about what you wrote. The students I’ve had that used AI literally could not explain their papers without reading from them. If you wrote it, you’ll be able to explain it enough to show you did. Physical proof? Yeah, notes, version histories, etc.

My first car was a Ford Escort too. Now I’m still driving the first car I bought as a grown up. A 2000 mini cooper. It still runs fine. My dad drove a TransAm from ‘97-2023 when it was totaled. I loved that car.

One of my favorite medieval things. I have a version that’s a kind of children’s picture book. This poem helped me through my dissertation as my cat (Ms. Jones) sat with me while I worked. She did not hunt mice, but she was great company!

You left out light Aran, heavy Aran, “it’s more like a worsted than a bulky but it is called bulky” and “discontinued forever.” “Always swatch” is the “stay 100ft back; not responsible for damage to windshield” of the crafting world.

Great article. I played Mouthwashing because a student wanted to write a paper on it. Great game. Great paper, too. He really got it, and had some super interesting stuff to say. This was for a Death and Dying class. I hope they port this to console soon.
