Always be recruiting. Always be looking out for the talented, the original thinkers, the ones who do more than talk. Take note of those who create impact regardless of their position, the big successes, the small achievements that signal real ability. Keep an eye on those who develop others 1/

When using Microsoft Word or Google Docs, don't just make text bigger and bolder to make it a heading. That will work for sighted users, but screen reader users will miss that and just hear it as normal paragraph text. Use actual heading styles, like level 1 through 6.

Classicstober Day 7: Φαρμακίς (witch, Sorceress)🔮✨🏺

If you are a supporter and reader of @contingent-mag.bsky.social one of the biggest things you can do to help us at the moment is get this CFP to the NTT folks in your life. The fracturing of social media has made it very difficult to get the word out esp. to adjuncts and VAPs.

Thanatos The line extends Of friends, all gone. Up or down? Well let's admit both ways. Who let Alcestis go Won't give that boon To dearest Charlie, Pure-hearted friend. Oh Thanatos, Had I the power of Herakles, I'd bring back that line, Enjoy old times again. #classicstober

@classicstober.bsky.social day 2 #Thanatos

Metal #ClassicsTober25 Day 2: Thanatos Thanatos 🇵🇱 Necromaniac Out of Sanity (1990) Death metal Fun fact: There are 28 metal bands (from 21 different countries) with "Thanatos" in their name, & 356 metal songs with "Thanatos" in their title. Most, of course, are "death" metal. 💀 #ClassicsTober

#Classicstober25 Thanatos I know that he is often regarded with fear and malice but I wanted to depict a young Thanatos as mild mannered with kind and patient eyes. I wanted him wearing his “melampeplos” with a soul butterfly on his finger.
