who's asking?

professors started doing those kahoots quiz games for attendance points and I told them I couldn't participate because I didn't have a smart phone.

one of my professors scoffed in front of the whole class and said, "are you serious?" i said "are you going to pay for my data plan?"

he relented because he had to and every single day he had to print out a little physical quiz for me to take while everyone else did kahoots. it was so funny bc it was a lecture hall with like 150 students. he gave up after like 3 times and just counted me present.

hello. at the risk of seeming like an insane person, the drawing you did of Cursified Kit has been living in my brain for roughly a week. so much that i wanted to draw it myself. and now i bequeath it to you, like a cat offering a dead mouse.

sorry if this is unwelcome (i know drawing something like this unsolicited is, to say the least, strange!) but i loved the drawing so much and i wanted to show you. perfectly okay if you don’t publish this. (also sorry i didn’t draw Elton i got lazy)

This comment on the letters page got a hearty chuckle out of me.

matcha originated in China about 1200 years ago, açaí has been consumed by Indigenous communities in the Amazon for centuries, and Dubai chocolate was invented by combining chocolate with knafeh, an 1100 year old SWANA snack.

white people love to call nonwhite foods suddenly becoming popular in western mainstream culture "industry plants" as if they haven't always existed.
