I started my term as department chair on August 1. I made sure to communicate my values, goals, and first steps into this insane academic year to my faculty colleagues, and yesterday to the graduate students. Today we had our first teaching hack-a-thon to share expertise. -

Today is a little cooler than yesterday. Not unpleasant indoors. Outdoor temperature today is about the same as yesterday's indoor temperature, so hot, but not like the sun stands there with a sword, ready to slay you. -

Someone ( @dielan@shitposter.club ) was talking about making their first mortgage payment today. Someone was trying to convince them to make only the minimum monthly payment and invest the rest of their money into stocks and gold. . I disagree. I think paying down the mortgage early has a better ROI for comparable risk levels. Besides, it doesn't have to be either/or. They ca… -

These commercials play almost continuously on a Los Angeles newsradio station, which seemed suspicious to me (airtime is expensive), but I'd never seen anyone suggest they are a scam until @moon@shitposter.club posted this link: https://nu.federati.net/url/273631 [www charitywatch org]

Bit into a piece of bread and tasted this weird sweetish flavor. Immediately, I thought the ants must have gotten into the bag.
I spit out the bread and—yes—it had saliva covered ants crawling on it.
Ew. Yucky. -

Someone created a site (still retains its 1990s appearance) under the name “Branch Floridians”. Offhand, I’d say they purport to be about thinking for oneself, but I wasn’t interested enough to see whether there’s some hard to find page for initiates which hides brain washing and cult-like activities from the general net user crowd. -

Yeah, I have to admit that the way that #conspiracy_theories are so widespread does cause a sense of unease. I suddenly started hearing people use the term #Boogaloo recently, and found out that these are people that believe that a big civil war is coming to the US soon. The thought that someone steeped in these beliefs may act to bring about the changes they think are needed …
