Me: "Discovery?! You've got to be kidding."

Every dog owner (whispering): "Don't say it! We just got him calmed down, and if you say W-A-L-K, we'll just have to start all over again."

@Nonilex "equal under the law" is getting a bit ragged 'round the edges 🙁

Hearing on new evidence in #Trump #ElectionInterference #HushMoney case

NY Supreme Court #Justice Juan #Merchan began a hearing this morning about a late release of more than 100k pages of potential evidence in Trump’s #trial over 2016 election hush money payments. A key question is whether he’ll set a new trial date, after delaying #jury selection until at least mid-April.

Looking for a contemporary poetry anthology to inspire me.

Discovered:
"The Vintage Book of Contemporary American Poetry" by J. D. McClatchy
featuring Plath, Ginsburg & others.

Vintage … Contemporary? Uh. What?

Still looking ... maybe I'll try "post-modern", instead.

I started fiddling with my smoke pics again. This time I put them in photoshop and inverted them. Then I played with the colours. #photography

Smoke trails on a white background. The smoke swirls. There is a purple trail and a green trail.
Smoke trails on a white background. The smoke moves vertically. There is a red trail and a blue trail.

I just got a message via LinkedIn from a man who tracked me from another social media platform that is currently overrun with Nazis. He wanted to let me know that he loves boobs.

This is what it's like to be a woman online.

@mckra1g well, that drew out a couple more who are worth blocking 👍

Sorry to hear it, molly 😕

My discipline, anthropology, is not seen as a “growth" discipline, and departments are being closed down. But the world needs Anthropology and Anthropologists now more than ever!

Here are my 8 reasons for this:

1. POSSIBILITIES
   At a time of polycrisis, when the destructive fallouts of capitalist modernity are ever more apparent, anthropology highlights that there are myriad alternative ways of thinking and living; that there is so much to learn from other peoples in the world. 1/n
