Nick Spicher

I'm done here, for all the obvious reasons. No need for sappy goodbyes. Going to try out Bluesky (I have invite codes, ask) and/or Threads. We'll see how it goes.

It's #NewJerseyDay, YAY! ❤️

Thank you for writing this, @ghweldon.

I was feeling *really* good for the first 30k... Which is probably why I crashed and burned in the last 10. Still, a PR is a PR. Nice race, @runvancanada! I'll be back for more.

Well, that was... Painful. But in a good way.

Good morning, Vancouver! Looks like a beautiful morning to run 42.2 km.

There will always be a small part of my brain that imagines everyone in the 18th century spoke like Sylvester the cat.

Five years ago today, I sat down in front of the TV and live-tweeted my little appearance on some quiz show, having no idea it would become... the thing that it became.

Nothing gets me into the holiday spirit quite like murdering a Poinsettia.

Many people have no idea that the typical college professor, especially in STEM, has almost zero formal training in how to teach. Let that sink in, when we discuss college loan debt… you are often paying to be taught by people who have never taken a class in how to teach.

I'm starting a thread here in an attempt to create a one-stop place for people curious/confused about the rise of visible homelessness. Here are some of the best resources I've read/listened to over the years. I'll try to keep updating it. Feel free to send suggestions! 1/
