Yup. Mainers are really really telling on themselves right now. Do all of these folks think Paul LePage was an aberration?
It's one of the whitest states and also one of the least friendly to Jews.
Apparently someone tried to impersonate me on Instagram. Just so you know, I barely use that account and haven't posted anything to it since January 2025.
I think you are officially the most famous person I know. And you're a duck.
When you told me this was "coming out soon" on Friday, I thought you meant in, like, 2 weeks.
Just ira glass narrating my life
😂 I know plenty of people who can manage it, but none of them chair a music department.
He yelled at us in 1993 at the Hollywood Palladium for not being into the opening band. I can’t even remember who it was.
Honestly, exhaustion is why I only have one partner
He’s been disappointing for at least 20 years
It turns out the crasher freely uses the racial slurs, so I blocked him
This effectively forces every trans person in the state to out themselves while applying for a job, renting an apartment, or being stopped by police. It's part of the same law that allows anyone to sue anyone else they suspect of being trans and using the "wrong" bathroom.
It looks like more sockpuppet accounts are crashing this site. Some racist just showed up in my thread... about the bad musicology job in LA. What on earth?
This particular job is weirdly not accommodating –– worse than most academic jobs to the extent that I'd be worried about whoever got it.. Academic ableism is one thing (pretty bad), but then there's the variety that exists in music schools.
Why are you crashing a conversation about *wages*?
So... does anyone care about this? That Michael B. Jordan's parents flew to London to see their son and they left the BAFTAs in tears? That he was repulsed?
Still don't think an apology was owed? Some of you people are wretched fools.

I know the job market is tough, but also it's getting increasingly difficult for me to convince my colleagues to not quit what with AI, the politicization of knowledge and expertise, and *points around*
Anyway, I wonder if they're basically hoping to attract someone who wants a side hustle.
The Colburn School (in Los Angeles) is hiring a musicology professor and the starting salary is 60-80K. I'm trying to imagine a world where a PhD with classical performance experience can afford to live in LA on 60K. This might have been possible 15-20 years ago, but in 2026?
Why is he so obsessed with us? Why not just leave trans people alone?
I think people still underestimate the extent to which the panic over an increase in trans boys transitioning is about the belief that AFAB bodies are rightfully for breeding and should be preserved as property belonging to their future husbands.

This guy.
I needed some mirth. Thank you.
The @nymag.com feature on fujoishi and Heated Rivalry is deep reporting E. Alex Jung. I read enough MM and queer romance to know the difference between what's written by and for women and what isn't. Thanks for going deep into slash, BL, and the rest.

DO BETTER PEOPLE
If a person harms people because of their impairments, the harm still happens.
At some point I just gave up. If someone else wants to do the hard work of keeping them happy, go for it.
