Yesterday I filmed several baby birds walking across a street directly at my camera and asked Bluesky to suggest music

Several dozen folks did

Some even dubbed music over the original clip.

I haven't been able to get this out of my head.

So I give you

A Bluesky exclusive:

Reservoir Ducks

🐣 🪶

Exactly.

How are my classes going? Well, I'm 4000 words into a 2000 word essay, and I still have 2000 words of stuff left to say.

You know those people who go on one trip to Berlin and suddenly everything is "Berlin Berlin Berlin"? Well, I took one sociology class and I just told my co-worker she doesn't have to perform hegemonic femininity.

That's my goal for sure. <3

Ooh! I know he had been on someone's show! He was on Hong Seok-Cheon's Jewel Box youtu.be/Hh7NzamUrt4?...

Ohh, I'm pretty sure you don't want to. But maybe you do! It's Social Statistics in Action by Andrea Noake. And I will say (not just because I might be in her class next term) the book itself is great. The writing and editing is solid. Just, the publisher dropped the ball at the end.

Hi! I'm avoiding a paper I'm writing for the other course I'm taking! (Not the one with the textbook.)

Like, astonishing. And I saw an interview with him where he said he was exhausted (from being in the military!) so he really embodied, you know, drowning. But note-perfectly.

He is so cool!!

Everything.

Sadly he hasn't been on Lee Mujin Service (yet), so that's something to look forward to.

And don't miss the video of his military performance of Drowning that went viral, if only for the reactions of his fellow enlistees youtu.be/XD__iZhK4MM?...

I love pop punk so I Hate You is frequently heard around here, but also Different (which is very different lol) is on my soothing / background-y playlists. Feel Like is saucy and sexy and fun, I watch the video a lot.

Well, it has been 12 days which is about eight years in k-pop fandom time, so I guess you've already dove deep. But I would always recommend Drowning, the song which made him famous(er) while he was busy in the military, and then one of my favourites, Abyss. (Oh, the lyrics 😢).

Back again to say it doesn't have an index either. (I mean, I just noticed and it's the end of term. But I would like there to be an index.)

I'm curious too - sometime I'll stop into the bookstore and see if they're all like that. (Although it's likely at least a few of them are, I guess. )

Right??

Yes I came here to say this, none of my group chats would understand.

I'm taking a university course. I paid $130 for a textbook which is published by Oxford University Press.

The page numbers are in the gutter and the even-numbered pages are on the right.

MY $130 OUP TEXTBOOK IS BOUND WRONG.

I'm losing my mind. This is the last straw. I'm done.

I haven't been here because I was off socials for a few days and enjoyed the head-empty feeling so much I didn't want it to end. If you want to be in touch, email works. I also have a monthly newsletter with book reviews and other fun stuff.

IU is built different

No way! That's unheard-of. Apparently the US postal service is simply not accepting things for Canada.

Ooh, a compelling possibility!

How curious! I wonder if it is a new / weird / cheap binding.

I got a POD book with a flimsy cover recently, but as you say, some of them are solid quality.

Happy birthday! 💐🧋

The pfeffernusse glazing process: in the foreground, a glass bowl with several light brown nut-shaped cookies in a puddle of white glaze flecked with anise seeds, and a pair of shiny salad tongs that I use to toss the cookies in the glaze. In the background, glazed cookies set on a parchment-lined baking tray.

'Tis the season to glaze pfeffernusse at 10:00 pm because I just realized they need to be ready on Saturday morning for the choir bake sale.

Your Xmas pud is still happily marinating in your package, ready to be mailed when they finally get sorted. (I hope they get a good contract!)

Omg I can't believe it bounced! I thought it would just sit somewhere. Although now that I think about it, it's not like they have infinite warehouse space.

Apparently lately some publishers are using print-on-demand technology which produces shitty-feeling books with cheap covers. Could that be what's happened?
