Nice to be out walking on a day like this good for the mind. Can I have a #boostplease

@alexanderhay I've been through the cuts here, too. Pandemic hit, most students deferred a year, and a 10 mil hole in the budget, and we were the most expensive department. Still annoyed about decisions made then.

It's kind of exciting watching a new group learn all the cool stuff you can do with this system.

@alexanderhay Been on the support side of HE for many years in England. It's a mess. Not much better here.

@coldacid@noagendasocial.com @Effortless@noagendasocial.com Do you know the story of the man writing to Hitler's physician about euthanizing his disabled son, and what happened with that program? I'm not saying this is anything alike, but these things can get out of control very easily.

@neglesaks Everything's gone here, it's all naked. I don't mind that so much. What I dislike are the short, cold days of Midwinter where you're hunkered down indoors because it's too cold to really do anything.

Hope everybody on the Fedi old and new are enjoying their Sunday!

@neglesaks Not a fan. Not long til Spring! That's what I keep telling myself.

@Gnomeshatecheese@spinster.xyz Both of whom came here in 2018, but didn't stay.

@Gnomeshatecheese@spinster.xyz The witch hunting Isn't so easy on a platform that has sold itself on not having any witches. They'll get bored.

There's a couple I know on twitter that have quite noticeably stayed, because they're cynical enough to know it's where they want to be.

@yngmar Yeah the plasticulture has really exploded in the last decade.

@Gnomeshatecheese@spinster.xyz It'll be interesting to see how far past the news cycle a lot stay around. In all honesty I am not delighted about a lot of them, but I am an old git.

@lucifer @nyquildotorg It was really the ultimate manifestation of the Bob Rock era. And has to be considered in its time - metal was basically dead in the mid 90s, with a few notable holdouts.

@Gnomeshatecheese@spinster.xyz Option 2.

@nyquildotorg It's not a bad album at all. They have had a lot worse.

@_L1vY_ I saw that Aircraft here a decade ago. Hope they weren't carrying sightseers but it isn't likely during a display. Horrific.
