Whenever I mention Mastodon on Twitter or my blog, I get a flood of new followers.

And that's OK.

Hello, everyone!

@amandadushan Excellent! The exodus continues!

I'm trying to tell people on Twitter to get out while they can.

Minnesotans are legendary for talking about the weather. Now they can do it with data.

Is it possible for smarm to become criminal behavior? Asking for a vice president.

@jessmahler Only elect black women. I can get behind that, too.

@dixongexpat And it's good! Captures one place & time well, and the actors are excellent.

I'll take it as a short term solution.

The Marvelous Mrs Maisel is a marvelous series. The two leads, Brosnahan and Borstein, are blowing me away.

@craigmaloney I only had one of those, and they went ahead & did well on the final and got the minimum grade they needed.

I hope they don't think I GAVE it to them, when they actually earned it.

Let it be known: I have submitted all of my grades. Fall Semester 2017 is done.

Until the bitter complaints start rolling in, that is.

Boy, my Eat the Rich menu is getting pretty extensive. Only weirdness is that it seems to be all white meat.

Someone tell the world that Star Wars is a science FICTION/FANTASY movie.

I'd probably go see Mortal Engines on the big screen, just to see how it was done.

Possibly.

If we don't get to endorse the idea of killing and eating Sam Altman, we won't ever develop faster than light spaceships.

Almost done with grading. Almost. But today I must trek out to the Twin Cities to pick up my best beloved, returning from the indulgence of grandmothering.

She's been snuggling up to a grandbaby for 3 weeks. She's going to be so disappointed, trading him for me.

Trump is a deeper problem than "the Russians did it!"

@generica He won't, and that's the problem: too many men are actively engaged in self-delusion.
