@paulloewen My ankle had to be fused 3 years ago after a right-on-red in Mississauga (had the right of way, was almost across when the car turned.) (Also, hi! It took me 6 months to realize it was you who yelled hi to me as you sped past me once in Glenelm.)

@nerdslovewords I also hate this, in addition to being um hell no, because they want to meet this week, but then they ask about meeting today or next week. But they’ll organize everything for you, sure!

ECS Statement on strikes on McMaster campus

[oooolivia @liv_again]

Solidarity from afar with my friends and comrades in my former union. TAs make McMaster work. They deserve to be treated with respect & compensated with fair wages.

[CUPE Local 3906 @cupe_3906]

We went into today truly hopeful #McMaster would come to the table with a fair and reasonable offer, but sadly, despite our best efforts, talks have broken down. We will be striking starting on Monday.

@marikapea The one in May was a weird one anyway, because it was so rainy that weekend iirc. Happy decluttering!

[oooolivia @liv_again]

@marikapea Omg thanks for the heads up!

[oooolivia @liv_again]

@nerdslovewords I hope you got home safe!!

[oooolivia @liv_again]

@WPGHandshake This is just the best. I’m so happy for both of you 💖

[oooolivia @liv_again]

@WPGHandshake This is such a huge accomplishment! Not silly or pathetic. I bet it feels good! Yay movement!

[oooolivia @liv_again]

@marikapea @nerdslovewords 🙋🏻‍♀️right on red is a scenario I am *very* familiar with! 😡

@lillith_s @HarryBa42166448 @audettenic This is a bad take re: what bakeries should offer, but also: I have DEFINITELY purchased a very delicious date square at La BB (count me in for baking trends from the 70s!)

@minyoungleeis N. American scholarship on immigrants + food emphasizes the “sensory dimensions of immigrant memory” (see: L. Bertram, “Icelandic Cake Fight” for a study on vínarterta, a symbol of ethnic identity in ‘New Iceland’)

@WPGHandshake I love you in braids!!!

@fandacam I briefly dated a pilot before a “mutual” breakup (me bc he was islamophobic; he because he was moving to Florida, lol). Like a year later he contacted me and wanted to fly me out to Vegas using his airline perks (he called them “bennys”).

@nerdslovewords @fermule One loves to see this ~critique~ in the literature

[oooolivia @liv_again]

@nerdslovewords @fermule Ohhhh! That’s even funnier. Also, E-A, thanks for sharing this—I am reading Poovey (cited by MR) now bc this seems relevant to something I’m working on atm. Research process: so random.
