today was the first day most of the people who are doing a giant (11 person) silks piece for the December showcase were there to start seeing how the different pieces look together, and it's going to look really cool!

Bought tickets to next year's 30th anniversary Matchbox 20 tour, as I am a middle aged white lady and that is what I must do. The less expected part is buying the tickets with my bf, when this concert is 9 months away and I've only even known him ~4 1/2 months. Neat. 🤞

eBay users! Don't ignore today's email, even though it looks like a boring standard update to the User Privacy Notice. They want to use your data to train AI models. If you click the link over the words "the right to object", it takes you to a page with a toggle button letting you opt out.

why do both of my laptops have tabs pinned that are youtube videos on basic stretches for idiots with 🦐 posture and i have never actually done any of them

"And according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 21.6 percent of Americans now work longer than 40 hours a week, with a beleaguered five percent working as many as 60 hours." oh boy i'm in an 'exclusive' group! - i just count on the desk treadmill to keep me awake though

Around the world, people are pumping themselves full of caffeine, amphetamines, and other performance-enhancing drugs just to survive their working hours. This isn’t sustainable. www.currentaffairs.org/news/a-socie...

I've been a teacher at my school for almost 20 years now and ever since my first day, I've thought the year 5/6 building entrance looks like an angry monster. Well, this Halloween season, with the help of my year 6 students, we decorated the building just like I imagined. 😊

It's a dream!! I am delighted to announce that I have been selected for the #NIH Director's New Innovator Award (DP2), with funding through the #NCI!

Joined the local group ride this morning to an orchard for cider donuts, but fell to the lure of Caramel Apple Cup. Gorgeous weather for it!

You've seen fireworks that look like jellyfish, but what about a jellyfish that looks like fireworks? The E/V Nautilus filmed this rare Halitrephes maasi jellyfish glowing like a firework at a depth of 4,019 feet (1,225 meters) off the coast of Baja California, Mexico. (📷: Ocean Exploration Trust)

The phoneternet here is struggling with too many people, but there's been a surprise Sagan (wonder if he's still friendly with Ted King?)

The tent with official jerseys/stuff has a line across the park but is mostly out of stuff so you're ordering it to be mailed to you, in addition to the stupidity of not having women's cut kit. That aspect of this is poorly done.
