today i saw ads on the subway both for the horrible AI necklace AND an app where you bid for dates with women using an in-app cryptocurrency the J truly is the frontier in Black Mirror-esque technodystopia gadgets

i KNOW i was meant to be either 5’0 or 6’0. why am i exactly 5’6. this is Incorrect.

Yes, I love that two non-US sports psychologists conclude that US science funding is rigged so that the guy quoted unfailingly by every outlet—not because of scientific merit but because of the Harvard label—can’t get a hearing. That and more is why I wrote this: medium.com/@steve.desch...

the subway is so beautiful…. what do you mean there’s like 300 people on the J from manhattan to brooklyn at midnight on a monday just like me….i love you all

hello friends! know anyone in NYC in need of a STEM coach for their high schooler as college app season begins? send them my way!

discovered that the dryer in my building is actually a portal to hell when i pulled all my clothes out and they had not only ALL shrank but the heat had melted thousands of tiny sequins off a dress and adhered them to everything else

today i saw a guy nonchalantly driving with a whole entire traffic cone (this kind!) wedged under the front of his car making the LOUDESR scraping sound

For months, the job market has been awful. Start firing thousands of federal employees (that's me, y'all), this is a disaster. I'm not getting anywhere. Job leads welcome. I have long COVID and stopped driving. I'm glad to share my resume if you have solid leads. Thanks. spot.fund/qsrm8f8sc

gender is the mind killer

so far my impression of lesbian bars in NYC is that it’s 50 girls singing HOT TO GO and not making eye contract with each other

putting a sticker on my black hole paper that says I BOUGHT THIS BEFORE AVI WENT CRAZY

i’ve only lived in bushwick for two weeks but i think i get polyamory now

science panel etiquette HAS to include “not going to up to the speaker and asking them what their credentials are” this happened to me TWICE

love this cool summary of one of my DragonCon panels, Where Physics Gets Weird! dailydragon.dragoncon.org/2025/are-lig...

pilots always try to hide it but you can tell if they’re new yorkers by the way they say Laguardia

there are still beautiful places in the world* * unsupervised open bar at the airline lounge

winding down from DragonCon and killing time before my evening flight by taking a trip to the aquarium 😍😍😍

ok i did the math and i think if i don’t spend any money from now until the end of 2027 i can financially recover from dragoncon

i had SO much fun at #DragonCon2025 this year! 🤩 gave some fun talks/panels, saw every cosplay in the universe, and made a ton of new friends!

i used to go to star trek conventions over 10 years ago and now i have my own name placard 🥲

i am experiencing emotions

i cannot believe i live steps away from a beautiful, perfect slice of cheese pizza at literally any hour. this feels like it should be illegal. too good to be true

Unions in spaaaace!

hitting that pre-order button so fast they’re gonna have to invent a whole new kind of relativity about it

seen Avi Loeb discourse so thought it was a good time to dig up this gem from @sevenrasmussen.com kaitlinrasmussen.medium.com/give-me-avi-...

walked all over Bedstuy handing out my resume at coffee shops today. feeling pretty good about it. i think a semester off from teaching will fix my creeping burnout.

god’s most basic bitch goes out for dinner

i’ve been here for 1.5 days but i am never leaving brooklyn. literally everything i need day to day is within a 5 minute walk. two minutes to the subway. every possible cuisine within a mile. i hope i never have to drive a car for the rest of my life
