“I want you to do your best to pronounce these words,”
one woman asks her boyfriend in a clipviewed more than 8.8m times.
He gamely nails his first attempt, reading off the herb “thyme”.
But he’s less successful with “epitome”, “challah” and “fuchsia”. (“Foo-chia?” he guesses).
“Conscientious” and “faux pas” also prove tricky.
He ends up with a score of five out of 17, or 29% – very much a failing grade.
“The fact that his vote matters just as much as mi…

omg there is an actual emeritus office now!

A small, sparsely furnished emeritus office, room 3128, viewed through its glass-paneled door. The nameplate reads "Computer Science & Engineering – Emeritus Office – 3128." Inside, gray carpet tile with flecks of orange runs to a large window with vertical blinds partly drawn, giving a view of an adjacent brick/tile building under a clear blue sky. A young fiddle-leaf fig plant sits in a black pot near the window alongside an empty black planter, and a black filing cabinet with a wood-toned to…
It’s me! In the emeritus office! In a brand new Herman Miller chair! A close-up selfie of an older man [hmph] sitting in a black mesh-back office chair (Herman Miller style) in the same emeritus office as the previous photo. He's balding [ok ok enough] with white hair [oh ok so I am old already!] on the sides, wears rectangular black-framed glasses, and has a white mustache and soul patch. He's wearing a lavender-and-white striped button-down shirt, open at the collar, with a small beaded neck…
The view from my office window. A wide daytime view over U-M's North Campus, looking out from a few floors up. On the left stands Baits Tower (the brick clock/bell tower with its distinctive stepped, angular design), rising above the surrounding plaza and lawns. Below and around it, brick-paved walkways and green lawns with young trees lead across the diag toward a low brick building in the middle distance, part of the Duderstadt Center, with a glass-walled corridor section. In the foreground…

I wanted to post mountain photos more regularly again! So here's one trail from last year where I started really early to avoid the heat.
It was a hike that I did alone and met just like ... 2 or 3 people. Oh and I was glad to have a water filter with me!
I spotted a spring on my way up and - knowing that I'd come pack to it later - I didn't have to use my water sparingly.
Enjoy!

This image captures a serene and immersive forest scene, evoking a sense of tranquility, adventure, and untouched natural beauty. A narrow, winding dirt trail cuts through the dense greenery, inviting the viewer to imagine exploring the depths of the forest. The trail is flanked by lush, vibrant vegetation, including a variety of shrubs, bushes, and young evergreen trees, creating a rich and textured tapestry. The forest floor is a mix of green moss, grasses, and patches of bare earth, adding d…
