regular lobsters start out as just little lobsters but spiny lobsters start out as these beautiful weird larvae that also evolved to ride on top of jellyfish. This jellyfish is too small though!!!

They are not as high-profile as the WGA, but I would like to bring everyone’s attention to the imminent strike action by thousands of hotel workers in Los Angeles. They are set to go on strike tomorrow, July 1st, 2023.

More than 15,000 hotel workers are seeking higher pay, better benefits, and working conditions. This includes an across-the-board $5 an hour raise, as well as affordable healthcare and better pensions. They also are seeking a ban on the use of E-Verify, which is used to deny employment to undocumented workers and workers involved with the criminal justice system. You can follow what is happening at their Twitter.

The kind of student interaction I like to hear:

xiaq:

Two female students were talking in my office while having some pre-finals dog therapy

Student 1: I was paired with [male student] for the workshop. He’s such a good writer.
Student 2: Wait, really? He seems like such a frat bro, though.
Student 1: I know. But his writing is so beautiful. It’s like professional-grade. He knows how to use semicolons properly.
Student 2: (softly but with feeling) oh…semicolons
