Time you can mention the word *diverse* in academia--when you are diversifying revenue.

Sounds smart to me.

A raise swallowed by premium hikes is not a raise. The faculty union is calling on UNM to cover 80% of employee premiums — the same standard NM law guarantees other state employees. www.abqjournal.com/news/unm-fac...

Juniper Blessing sings “Se tu m’ami” in the finals of Canzonnette Italiane

I just signed a petition from @theactionnetwork.bsky.social: UNM Faculty Demand Affordable Healthcare. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/si...

When I work from home, I am usually sitting on my bed with my laptop, howling loudly to a song like this. youtu.be/MljrD0-DzqQ?...

The Rio Grande through Albuquerque looks sad. It's usually full with spring runoff this time of year.

Cybertrucks look like cockroaches.

I just figured out how to archive a webpage that I'm afraid will get taken down after I cite it. I feel like an evil genius. I ❤️ @archive.org.

Wake up, mama. #caturday

⚡️US falls below Russia in survey of global perceptions. The global perception of the United States has fallen for a third consecutive year, now ranking several spots behind Russia, a survey commissioned by the Alliance of Democracies Foundations revealed on May 7.

The United States Department of Justice on Friday filed a motion urging a federal judge to immediately prohibit New Mexico officials from enforcing House Bill 9, the Immigrant Safety Act, saying the new state law is unconstitutional and would irreparably harm a New Mexico county. buff.ly/eAXseic

I got so excited about an Open Educational Resource project that I gave myself a tummyache. Job hazards.

This is what I'd wear to the Met Gala.

New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez won a historic sum of $375 million in a landmark child safety case against Meta earlier this year. The next stage of the fight begins today, and it could be even more consequential for Meta and the social media industry at large.

Don't you know hard times? Can't you see hard times are here to stay? youtu.be/Y_n8uvc-bPg?...

I walked a lot this weekend.

What's the word for when a man tries to flirt with you, but he is actually insulting you in an attempt to lower your self esteem so that you will entertain the thought of going out with him? I think #millennials coined this.

Lately, Bluesky has National Enquirer vibes.

I would cry about not having time to make jokes, but I don't have time for sadness either. Gotta get back to work. Happy Tuesday.

Log off and hug a tree. It's my birthday.

If I just keep still no one will get hurt. #cats

That *is* me standing awkwardly next to the honorable @debhaalandnm.bsky.social at the Diversity Summit held in Gallup, NM. Her speech about the kind of societal change that is possible when people from diverse backgrounds are in power brought me to tears. Hope is resistance.

Anyone know what's going on? #bluesky

This sounds so much better than the love that slowly atrophies and crumbles into a pile of dust that I am accustomed to.

Was aggressively deleting a period on my computer screen when I realized it was a poppy seed.

Chaco Canyon is sacred. Chaco Canyon is holy. These places should not be drilled on. Raise your voice and public comment by tomorrow—to say NO to drilling in the Greater Chaco Landscape! eplanning.blm.gov/Project-Home...

For five minutes, I forgot the world is a dumpster fire, and that was nice.

In case you didn't know, my name is Jennifer J.

Loved hearing @staceyabrams.com speak at the #NoKings rally in Albuquerque.

“This is going to surprise some people, but I consider Markwayne Mullin a friend,” said Senator Martin Heinrich of NM. I'm not surprised. Senators have more in common with one another than they do with their constituents. It's called privilege. thehill.com/homenews/sen...

Morning sun.

Someone please invent the yoga desk. I would ideally be able to check email in pigeon pose.

I have to summon enough energy to file my taxes. Feels like a cruel joke.

Of all the ever-loving acronyms about university processes.

Red chile makes everything better. #themoreyouknow

I deactivated my #bluesky account for a few days to clear my brain, but I am glad to be back. I do think the algorithm is a little addictive. That I am following 10k people doesn't really help!

Pre-order my friend Dana's book. She's brilliant. #poetry #poetrycommunity www.cowcreekchapbook.org

Emotionally unavailable to answer any more emails today. If I do email you, it's from an empty shell.

It's a gotdamnit, what-have-I-gotten-myself-into? kind of afternoon.

I need chocolate now.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I am not ready for Monday OOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
