📚 I had to create a prop about ALA for a video and realized I am insane
This to me was one of the funnier series of images. They didn’t go get barrels of hydrogen peroxide from some industrial chemical supply. They went to a store and got little bottles of it and they all had to sit there opening the bottles and pouring them one by one.

Related: This is what I want out of the next Met Gala. Have the Garment District workers take the spotlight.
Today, the raven that hangs out with #GarbageMare brought her an interesting piece of agate. Not sure what the banding indicates other than an iron deposit - could it be a fossil?
I was looking at Indeed postings for some algorithmic evaluation purposes and honest to god based on the keywords "higher education management" it recommended I go work at a turkey farm
