As the mother of a teenager in high school, colleges' and universities' responses to these protests are helping my family rule out schools where the administrators clearly care more about optics than their duty of care to their students.
Hey @UPS, do you know that your Tualatin, OR facility is regularly closed on Fridays and they mark people's (perishable) packages as having attempted delivery when they never left the facility? This has happened to me twice in a month & am now getting a box of rotten food on Mon.
Pfew! Our college administration tried to water down (to basically nothing) the existing fossil fuel divestment policy but our letters to the PCC Board members led to a 5-2 vote against the proposal. Woo hoo!!! Still stunning that admin even proposed it.
"I am not surprised by those who attempt to propagate hatred. I am surprised that my own university—my home for four years—has abandoned me." Every line of USC valedictorian Asna Tabassum's statement is brilliant, heartbreaking and infuriating cair.com/wp-content/upl…
After 11 months of not teaching (sabbatical), I really thought it would be hard to get back to it, but it really is like riding a bike. Three classes into the quarter and it almost feels like I never left (other than the much lighter experience of not feeling burned out anymore).
Look, I know that we're one of the smallest generations but we all started working at like 15 and are raising kids while taking care of dying parents. We're already working to death.

I have a little foot. It causes me lots of pain, and for the last week it’s been injured. I needed an X-Ray, so I called the Xray Department at the hospital in my town, to see if the X-Ray tech would mind wearing a mask for the time it took to adjust my foot for the X-Rays.
I said hello I need to come in for an x-ray and would like to request that the tech wear a mask during the time when we are in the room together. Her reply was something like “No we don’t do that sort of thing, why do you want them to wear a mask?”. This is a hospital.
in another town, and some people have to drive much farther, and many people are being exposed to Covid and other illnesses, and it is all unacceptable. Masks should be mandatory in all healthcare settings permanently. End of story. #KeepMasksInHealthCare #covid
Masks should be mandatory in healthcare, everywhere. I just had to drive 4 hours round trip to be provided a safer environment to receive essential care, but my little tale is nothing compared to what many to endure. Some places don’t have the kind healthcare facility

@librarianmer @librarythingtim @johnxlibris I still marvel at that giddy, free-flowing time.
I gave an invited talk about my research this morning, and it was SO affirming to hear from the people who attended and engage with their questions. There's nothing like getting to talk for a whole hour about one of your areas of intense interest! 😊
I’m ready for old school gifs to make a comeback. Bring back the gif of that white ginger kid looking surprised I say. Or that Black woman walking through the door. All Schitts Creek gifs are back on the table.
@librarianmer Breaking my Twitter silence to come back and comment on this. You are one of the most thoughtful and thought-provoking writers in LIS. I've been reading your blog for ... what, a decade now at least? I totally understand your frustration, but I would hate to feel IWTBF's absence
@librarianmer I would love to see a re-emergence of blogging (or, at least posting on our own web spaces). Maybe blogging collectives? Perhaps the breakdown of social media's centrality and the pushback against AI-generated content could launch a new movement. Maybe not. I remain hopeful. 😌
