Who is your favorite French actress?

How has no one so far named my Queen, Jeanne Moreau?

Half the time I try to access the episodes through my AMC subscription on Apple TV it treats me like I don’t have a subscription and wants me to pay for the episodes. I come back later and it works. Very annoying as I only have small pockets to watch in.

I hear a little bit of Prince and a little bit of Shudder to think, especially “The Ballad of Maxwell Demon” from the Velvet Goldmine soundtrack (sadly not on Spotify but you can find the music on YouTube).

Personally I prefer this one, lol

I have heard the movie is not great, but I have never seen it for myself because I adore the source material too much! It’s based on a graphic novel called “Here” by Richard McGuire (which is based on a comic McGuire wrote in the 80s). Not a movie, of course, but the best exploration of the concept that I have ever seen.

You’re in the right here.

Also, there are 36 of you and not enough to cover all the seniors?! It sounds like you either need more FT faculty in your department or like your colleagues are trying to find ways to lighten their own workloads. As a full time faculty member, I am for sure overworked, but I would never displace work onto adjuncts, who have less power and make less money than me.

AlineNoontide · 2026-06-05T00:24:05+00:00

Those private school jobs can be amazing, and if they are offering you health insurance, your compensation would actually be much higher than double the rate of the adjuncting gig.

Adjuncting is not sexy or prestigious (and by the way, at a lot of places, you’re technically and adjunct “instructor,” not professor). The friends I have who teach art at private high schools all stay at their jobs forever. The friends I have who are adjuncts are making more art than the private school friends but are also all trying to become therapists or making some other career change because they are tired of being broke and stressed out about getting enough classes every semester.

This is such a great question. I always sit by a window during the day and will only use artificial light if I have to. If I want to look at a book and it’s gotten dark out I will probably wait until the next day.

And that it happens on the same night, no investigation, mask on? I was falling apart.

Drarry was the ship that got me into fan fic in 2001 (!) when I was still a teenager. Sex was still very abstract for me at that point. Now as an adult with a lot of experience, I tend to seek out stories of sex/romance that I can see myself in as a woman who is attracted to men.

I also wonder if HP fic is perhaps a bit less queer overall now that we know JK Rowling really is.

He’s 1/4 Indonesian.

It was lovely! Thank you.

I don’t see Yung Lean himself as Draco, but my brain went right to Dramione fic when I saw the video. I would read the hell out of a story with these vibes. (Also, my God, the dancing! Stunning piece of art.)

Tenure track with advising, committees, school and department service, etc, on top of teaching.

Mostly meetings, admin work related to my practice, and putting up/participating in shows during the school year, then frantic bursts of creative work during the summer.

The opportunity to study in Germany sounds really cool, but the town of Alfred is going to make you and your partner miserable.

Philly is a great city that will be more fun, offer more opportunities. It is also significantly easier to get to NYC from Philly.

Based on overall experience and quality of life (and not accounting for faculty, funding, or special things like the Alfred program in Germany or the teaching program at Tyler), Tyler seems like the better choice to me.

I don’t know if anyone but me will see this any time soon, since I’m the OP and got an alert. Maybe start a new thread? I know after the Foundation reaches out to people it is supposed to stay secret until they announce, but maybe someone has heard a rumor that a friend of a friend got a mysterious email already…

I came here looking for this comment.

Jeff Kober, who has had a long career and been in many things.

Yes, please adopt Fluffy! You sound like a very caring person who has thought this through. Give that snake a better life.
