It's fri-TA-ta, not frittat-AH. OK I'm done.
Just googled recipes for "ricotta frittata" and can't get over how much it sounds like avada kedavra. 🍳🧙.

Eye rolling headline. If we aren't "baffled" then we're disturbed, I guess. We can't just be excited? It's 2000 light years away. I assure you, we are all very comfortable.

A new participant has chimed in to add subtlety to Side A: just because the dog may behave poorly towards women, does not mean they *believe* that women are inferior. Thus, they cannot be feminist or anti-feminist, because that is a ~ * belief * ~.

Seeing everyone at #AAS243, including myself, quietly doing the right-hand rule in their laps in the Rossi prize pulsar plenary is giving me warm feelings of camaraderie.

Grad students: definitely do the PJs thing.
Grad Students: Holiday break is upon us. Have you created a daily writing schedule or are you planning to lounge around in PJs under the auspices of self-care? . The academic job market comes down to hairline differences between candidates, similar to sports. I’d choose wisely.

I would be much more inclined to show up the "required" 30 minutes before my appointment time if there wasn't nearly 100% chance of me still sitting in the waiting room 30 minutes after my appointment was supposed to start.
