Food, utensils
@ljwrites @rabbithearth i look forward to hearing how you guys do at it if you do attempt! I might give it another shot over break next week as well
Food, utensils
@ljwrites @rabbithearth I use chopsticks a lot, to the absolute bafflement of my previous (Indian) roommate who seemed convinced that they were an innate & unlearnable skill. Though I still haven’t mastered the skill of picking up rice with my hands so I figured I couldn’t judge too much haha
Food, utensils
@ljwrites @rabbithearth ah okay that makes sense! Chopsticks are good for pasta in my opinion
Food, utensils
@rabbithearth @ljwrites i do not have your level of dexterity!
Food, utensils
@ljwrites which utensil goes with which dish?
blocking, boundaries
@ljwrites when I moved accounts I was definitely very ‘oh I really hope I don’t end up accidentally doing a block evasion’ for a while
Fortunate the two instances have…basically just people I follow in terms of overlap on the federated timeline, etc, so it hasn’t actually ended up being a problem as far as I know
@pixouls most of the billboards on the way into Philly are terrible — I always wish Mural Arts would add them to their list of things to fix
That one sounds fantastic tho 😆
@pagrus being sick sucks, you have full license to whine as far as im concerned
@quasihaiku not an optimal location for snails
@Cyborgneticz your students sound like so much fun
SCOTUS confirmation
@Cyborgneticz yeah most justices are much more consistent once you stop looking at them as republicans & democrats
Which isnt to say that they dont have political opinions, its just an adjacent system
SCOTUS confirmation
@Cyborgneticz oh man we were just talking about unexpected rulings they made in class last night.
Judges are weird people bc they just have a completely different perspective on politics than anyone else
@ljwrites appropriate tbh
re: historical racism
@ljwrites yeah I'm really enjoying working with his interviews!
re: historical racism
After discussing an event where he had to testify in court about racism in the university & admitted that he was the only black person in his department & was also the only person who hadn't received a raise: «Now I’m not saying somebody discriminated against me, they just treated me differently»
re: historical racism
@ljwrites yeah he's a really interesting interview subject, because he's very unwilling to say anything that would come off as...challenging? But at the same time he very clearly spent his entire time in academia challenging racist systems & advocating for black students so there's just shadows like this line everywhere where you can infer a lot of the stuff he's not quite willing to actually openly accuse the university of
@mythologybot alright curse breaking via royal titty milk is a new one for me
