I’ve taken an indefinite break from social media for the most part (I still post cats to insta) and I haven’t had access to my Rutgers email account since 2022, so if anyone needs to reach me, I work at Stevens Institute of Technology and you can find my email there

This is a library in China. It has the capacity to hold 1.2 million books and I am eternally jealous because my local library is always at risk every few years from being shut down😩

After years of only hearing about it, I finally got my hands on the 5-page bodybuilding forum thread wherein a couple dudes get into a heated argument over how many days there are in a week and I am here to tell you that it is infinitely funnier than I even imagined it would be.
