Last night I went to a book talk for an online acquaintance's new book and hung out a little after and I hadn't had one of those nice "I know you from online so nice to meet" hangouts in many years, it's nice that can still happen sometimes
Just saw a lady on the street kill a spotted lantern fly and called out "good job"

I made a new zine all about how ICT climate politics look productively different if we focus less on green consumer behaviours and more on opposing infrastructure expansions. It's quite fun, and written with a non-academic audience in mind!

Oh hey our book is now out in open access! Download a free pdf of our thoughts on the intersections between (digital) media studies and the energy humanities! We're very proud of it!
Oh no the storefront next door is available to rent and what if I rented it and ran a print studio out of it!!
These are ideas for a person with money Ingrid, sigh
Update I am hanging out in bed with Kitty instead of pushing myself to work some more, please clap

Metallic-green Tanager
Small tanager found in Andean subtropical zone from Colombia to Peru. Unique seafoam green color, often appearing fairly dull. Greener than Golden-naped Tanager and lacks the spangled appearance of Beryl-spangled Tanager. Also note small black mask, black nape, and black wings with thin green edges. Buffy undertail coverts and vent only visible at some angles. Sexes alike. A fairly common member of mixed flocks from around 1,300–2,300 m, in cloud forest and edges.

*flings open window* “You there, boy! What day is this?”
“To-day? Why, it's the Anthropocene Working Group's announcement of the ‘golden spike’ location, a single geological repository of evidence that best embodies the proposed epoch.”
Controversial retail take
I've used them and all but honestly it is not clear to me that bookshop dot org is genuinely better on a warehouse labor conditions level than Amazon? But would be happy to be told they are actually good and fair employers or whatever
The internalized hustle culture urge to push myself to do a lot of work when I am still barely out of the woods recovering from walking pneumonia
ughhhh all I want to do is start a small press and print shop it is a bad idea!!

who called it object oriented programming and not class struggle
"Close to the metal" is a fundamentally horny phrase and I think it's OK to admit that
Brooklyn during Fourth of July weekend would be a really good setting for an intimate psychological thriller IMO
the platform wars
weird to realize so much of what's happening right now online bottoms out in the idea that a lot of people want to hang out at the mall

Nervously, I close the bag. “No way,” I tell myself. “It’s not like she’s gonna count the fries.” I start to sweat.
