@AutisticCallum_ I feel this so strongly! My husband never listens closely to song lyrics and it is incomprehensible to me.

My autistic love for accuracy means that I love to know the correct lyrics to songs that get stuck in my head. If a song gets stuck in my head and I don’t know its lyrics already, I often feel a strong desire to google and memorise its lyrics.

We need to stop judging people (particularly neurodivergents) for their house not being clean enough

The 🇪🇺🇺🇸 relationship would not be as strong as it is today without partners like @UNCEurope. For 30 years, this center for EU studies has helped a generation of Americans understand the EU and its importance for the U.S. and transatlantic affairs. Here's to many more decades!

just read about a woman typing for a German theology prof in London, 1949: "The word 'faith' appeared many times in the dictation, but as he could not pronounce the 'th' I typed 'face' every time - until I realized my mistake. It was very embarrassing" 😂

@tnflorvil Can we encourage more grad students to review books? Are journals receptive if a grad student writes to them and offers to review a book?

@tnflorvil Yeah I thought it was entertaining. For a movie about a plastic doll, I thought Greta Gerwig made a good job finding a blend of commercialism and subversiveness. Can you believe he’s going to be 10 next month?!

Saw the Barbie movie this weekend. Twice! Because I loved it so much. I took my 9-year-old the second time. The only question he had was “What’s fascism?” So I said we should probably watch The Hunger Games, because I am finding it hard to put that in kid terms.
