I just really miss him… I want to see him act and sing and dance again 😭 It feels like I’m in withdrawal and need an intervention… #WYBWednesday

Look I don’t want to say I’m winning at parenting, but my kids used to give me crap about my reading/watching preferences and now my youngest (20) has borrowed all of my MXTX books and is now reading and passing on to me The Ballad of Sword and Wine… and my oldest gives recs for BL anime 😂

Ok I’ve finished Pursuit of Jade already (10/10 highly recommend!)… What do I watch next? 🤔 Taking recommendations!

Y’all when I tell you I am LIVING for this show… The two fan groups fighting over who is not worthy of their favorite is so on brand for Chinese fandoms it is HYSTERICAL! 🤣🤣🤣 #ImDying #IHaveDied #PursuitOfJade #Netflix

Just started watching #PursuitofJade… I always get stupidly excited when I spot anyone from the CQL cast in another show! 😂❤️

Me reminding myself next spring about giving my phone number to graduates:

Maybe I’m just old, but I really miss proofreading, basic editing, and journalistic standards… #SpotTheError www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

LOOL… I mean, we won’t have electricity or clean water but at least we (should) know not to let the bots replace us? 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ #AI #whatfreshhell gizmodo.com/researchers-...

Having one of those days where I need to tell myself this multiple times bcz the nonsense is off the charts around here…

I’m going to miss this man on my TV everyday so much 😢

The “Chinese version of Magic Mike”? Wang Yibo has ABSOLUTELY seen this… 🤣 You know, for science 😏 www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8pCVMwS/

Every once in a while I get antsy with work & want to make a change and think to myself “Well what do I want to do when I grow up?” And I’ve hit the point in my life where the answer is - nothing. I want to lay on a chair and listen to the ocean. I just want to CHILL forever 😂

This is p🌽. Prove me wrong 🤣

Live video of me trying to fight the ADHD and find motivation to grade papers and get everything done during finals week:

Today’s discovery: There is a certain level of intelligence necessary to be promoted and put in charge of things, and I will never be able to sink to that level. #businessfordummies

This voting rights thing is hitting me hard… I’m glad I’m not teaching the diversity class in the fall bcz I’m so far past being able to be objective about anything that’s happening… It’s a systematic destruction of all progress. Full stop.

Man that new #Banksy statue is a sign of the times isn’t it? The world is a mess, but at least we still have artistic geniuses. So that’s something! ❤️

#PursuitofJade knows what’s up.

Important evidence of autism in the ancient world

Me trying to check my email or do literally anything at work:

I legitimately fear that this man is going to be in his 50s and I’ll be in the nursing home showing pictures to my roommate like “Just look at his sweet wittle face! 🥹” #WangYibo #ForeverAnAdorablePuppy #WYBstanproblems

So we’re friends with another family through my kids and their oldest son works with professional racing teams for a living… and when I tell you I would use that connection in a heartbeat if he was ever working a race Wang Yibo was doing, even though I don’t give two sticks about car racing… 😆

It is beautiful outside, Yet here I must sit Stuck at a desk for money. #capitalismhaiku

Now? NOW?!? Apparently the line that gets them to “uncomfortable” is equating himself with Jesus… Can’t wait to see where the line is for them to actually DO something… 😒

So my county “tabled” a proposal for a data center a few weeks ago after they had to move the meeting to a convention center bcz of the number of people coming to oppose it. Which, of course, means they voted to approve it at the next meeting.

Made wonton soup tonight ☺️

Happy Spring!

That feeling when you see the new “DEI but not called DEI” team and it’s literally all white women:

Having one of those days where I just want to take my dog and move into the woods. I’ll have to settle for watching survivalist bushcraft videos though… We all survive in different ways I guess 😆

Trans rights are disability rights.

Upper management sent me a certificate program to “consider” doing, and now I’m trying to decide if I want to tell them I already considered applying to actually teach the courses for it…

😢🥹 Time moves on… seasons change… bittersweet

Best Wang Yibo hair-era, and you’ll never convince me otherwise… But I do enjoy the curls too ☺️

The Winter Soldier

Me: Tells myself I’m not falling into an RPF ship again. Also me: Hears Connor Storrie and Francois Arnaud in the same sentence. AO3:

Not gonna lie, I do love to see horrible things happen to horrible people 🍿

There went my hopes of taking a vacation… 🫠

This is something I’ve never seen in my entire teaching career… Doesn’t seem worrying 😳 I’m half tempted to apply… But I don’t want to give them a reason to run a background check…

Dear college students, Do not email your professor after mid term break, multiple quizzes and exams, and ask where to find the online textbook for your online course. Do NOT. For the love of god find a friend…

“Libraries are one of the best creations in all human history”—my daughter just now but also anyone who reads.

Holy crap I just applied for a job in Canada… I don’t know if I want to hear back or forget it happened 🫣

Just read something that said “this book takes place in the late 1900’s” and my brain went:

Had to pull out my (very old) transcript for something today - apparently I signed up for a History of China course at one point but didn’t end up taking it due to the course load. Nice to see my interest in China Chinese culture goes all the way back to my undergrad days ☺️❤️

I never thought I would be bonding with a student over reading m/m smut together but here we are… It feels right for 2026 let’s be honest. #HeatedRivalry #HeatedRivalrybooks

I read an actual fictional book for the first time in like maybe a decade (I have a fanfiction problem), and I realized it’s been so long since the characters in a story weren’t from an existing game/show/anime that I really struggled with visualizing them in my head! 😢

I want to run for office… As the angry mother candidate. Unfortunately I’m a shit public speaker 😞

I had to call my insurance yesterday and spend time trying to figure out why the prescription I’ve been on for months is suddenly $1000 instead of $35, and the girl I talked to started talking about how she wished she had insurance. She works for an #insurance company. I just can not…
