Over at the Bad Place, I made a tradition of posting Douglass' "What, To The Slave, Is The Fourth of July," and I intend to carry on that tradition here. Since most versions you read in classes or in textbooks have parts omitted, the link below has the full text of the speech.

Did I go into some kind of fugue state and hide it somewhere? Smash it with a large hammer or throw it against a wall? But then there'd be debris. All this to say it was a bit stressful at the time so anything's possible.

A large uninterrupted power supply unit had a melt down last week and started shrieking distressly loudly. I dealt with it by replacing it (rather hurriedly). But now I can't find the original. How do you misplace a large black box in a small office?

Today's coping strategy is listening to comfort Christmas Carols. Possibly healthier than eating an entire cake but also, nostalgia's a slippery slope.

I wonder if the more privilege you have, the deeper and wider your sense of infraordinariness. Maybe that's why it can be so jarring when you realize someone doesn't have that same base. 2/3

Just finished Jenny Odell's Saving Time đź’š I will come back to it a lot. Right now I'm thinking on infraordinary (as opposed to extraordinary). 1/3

Hey for extra fun guess what was the only way for people who still work at the show to find old clips that are important to have in the course of producing said show!

Mask bans are evil and dystopian and I am appalled that they’re even being proposed. Wearing masks to protect your health and the health of others needs to be recognized as a right for all and an absolutely essential protection for those who would otherwise be unable to participate in society

They were waving an oilers jersey out the window as I was boarding a flight on Friday. It was during the game and we got several in flight updates.

I believe this little guy is part of this year’s Carolina wren baby batch, and is in the “looks adult but not quite a confident flier” phase. He clung to my office window for a good five minutes making angry faces at me.

I've been having fun with this one. A cross-section of the Assiniboine River Valley near Miniota, Manitoba, Canada. You have to zoom in for all of the details. The final panel is going to be 8 feet wide. 🌿🎨
