other workers see work show up in their queue and go "time to work on the work". when they're done, the supervisor merges their work into master. that's really it. it's a lot of very classic ideas about how to get work done, dressed up in a little fantasy theming

Odin is an exceptionally quiet dog but he's been slowly learning to voice his displeasure. Today, me and my husband left on an errand and I came back an hour later without him. Odin howled and barked in concern that I'd forgotten him somewhere. Later, we encountered another Hateful Poodle who cussed him out. After a good thirty seconds of this, Odin gave one single borf in return.

He just ran himself silly around a field with Mila the Ridgeback (too dark for photos I'm afraid). She's smitten with him and I don't think he has the social intelligence to realize it

Time for another re read. I feel like this is a Discworld novel i haven't reread enough. I'm already seeing little things i hadn't noticed before. Colon calling Vimes 'Sam' when he's taking to Nobby about him for example. showing their very real friendship. And Vimes being very complimentary about Colon

(comment on Thud!)

Thud! - bookrastinating.com

A seemingly routine day in the life of City Watch commander Sam Vimes is abruptly interrupted by an unsolved murder, an impending war, an unwanted new recruit, and a pesky government inspector. By the author of Going Postal. It's a game of Trolls and Dwarfs where the player must take both sides to win. It's the noise a troll club makes when crushing in a dwarf skull, or when a dwarfish axe cleaves a trollish cranium. It's the unsettling sound of history about to repeat itself. THUD! It's the most extraordinary, outrageous, provocative, insightful, and keenly cutting flight of fancy yet from Discworld's incomparable supreme creator, Terry Pratchett. Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch admits he may not be the sharpest knife in the cutlery drawer. He might not even be a spoon. But he's dogged and honest and he'll be damned if he lets anyone disturb his city's always tentative peace, and that includes a rabble-rousing dwarf from the sticks (or deep beneath them) who's been stirring up big trouble on the eve of the anniversary of one of Discworld's most infamous historical events. Centuries earlier, in a gods-forsaken hellhole called Koom Valley, a horde of trolls met a division of dwarfs in bloody combat. Though nobody's quite sure why they fought or who actually won, hundreds of years on each species still bears the cultural scars, and one views the other with simmering animosity and distrust. Lately, an influential dwarf, Grag Hamcrusher, has been fomenting unrest among Ankh-Morpork's more diminutive citizens with incendiary speeches. And it doesn't help matters when the pint-size provocateur is discovered beaten to death, with a troll club lying conveniently nearby. Vimes knows the well-being of his smoldering city depends on his ability to solve the Hamcrusher homicide without delay. (Vimes's secondmost-pressing responsibility, in fact, next to being home every evening at six sharp to read Where's My Cow? to Young Sam.) Whatever it takes to unstick this very sticky situation, Vimes will do it, even tolerating having a vampire in the Watch. But there's more than one corpse waiting for him in the eerie, summoning darkness of the vast, labyrinthine mine network the dwarfs have been excavating in secret beneath Ankh-Morpork's streets. A deadly puzzle is pulling Sam Vimes deep into the muck and mire of superstition, hatred, and fear, and perhaps all the way to Koom Valley itself.

It's 2026, and I still have to teach young folks to manage files on their computers. Four times in the last week I've had to sit with someone and show them how to copy, cut, paste, rename files, etc.

Wasn't this generation supposed to have grown up with and understand this tech?

description of mistreatment and trauma of a trans child

I like to put a lot of effort into my presentation slides but I think this time I've outdone myself. These are so good. Their existence alone tells a story.

The utilitarian layout, the flawed laser print, the additional artifacts from photo-copying, the dust, the scratches, the marker, the tape. It all comes together into something resembling an old file from some dusty archive

And it'll come to live on an old overhead projector.

a portrait-orientation slide (a4 format) showing a childs drawing of a person in a dark dress surrounded by strips of chinese writing.

text says:

(blacked out name), written by hand: "Jenny"

printed:

“Hi, I'm Dr. A. And you must be Johnny.”

Jenny cried inconsolably and,
amid her tears, admonished her
parents for their betrayal:
“You told!
 You told!” (red highlight)

- five years old
- said she was a girl since two years old
- resentful about being seen as a boy
- self-harmin suicidal
- parents generally supportive, but struggling
- did not first come out to her parents

Sur cette histoire de député RN qui s'emporte contre le Festival Trans qu'il associe à des personnes transgenres, ce qui compte c'est sa transphobie déclarée et assumée pas le fait qu'il se soit trompé. Ce serait bien qu'on arrête de se gausser pour sortir les nerfs de boeuf contre ce type de discours et la vision de la société qu'il porte. En même temps c'est pas au Canard qu"on va demander une analyse politique un tant soi peu basique.
Quand une proviseure s'en prend à une lycéenne qui veut couvrir ses cheveux pour cause d'alopécie ce qui compte ce n'est pas qu'elle confonde avec une musulmane mais le pouvoir qu'elle s'arroge sur le corps d'une ado
