Anybody want a dog? JK...Sort of...

I'm currently back home riding out the quarantine at my parents. I didn't want to be trapped in my apt alone for months on end. So I packed up my cat and dog and brought them with me.

I've been here for 3 months now and in the last week, my dog has suddenly taken to adventuring. We live in a small subdivision on a lake and there is a busy road about half a mile from my house in the opposite direction. I got him fixed last week and got him micro-chipped at the same time. Two different households in our neighborhood have picked him up and taken him to get his chip read. The first lady said she had "seen him for a month," and apparently started giving him food and tried to shame me for the fact that the dog kept coming to her house and "looking forlorn."

"Ma'am, the dog keeps coming to your house because you gave him food."

Thanks for the problem, Lady!

Anyhoo, if you see this wandering around, give me a call and either let me know you're keeping it, or bring him on back.

PS. This is what it does when you try to do homework with him near by.

Don't fall for it.

The Culture of Connectivity - Jose Van Dijck - Chapter 4

A piece of information infrastructure that was an everyday and unnoticeable part of our lives, like electricity or phones. Van Dijck says that this created a paradox in that is "presumes Twitter to be a neutral platform upon which users freely interact, much like the Web itself...indifferent to the contents they exchange" but that "the streams of data are engineered to promote certain uses and users over time" (p.69). Van Dijck says this paradox of "enabling connectedness while engineering connectivity" and "propagating neutrality while securing profitability" show up in every aspect of the platform. This is kind of a trend in all social media platforms as the start out about the user, but need to pay the bills... The Twitter platform has has some pivotal contributions to the culture of connectivity (culture influence tech while tech influences cul...

Favorite Places - Lucky Goat Coffee - Tallahassee, FL

This place has only been working its way into my list of favorite places. I've lived in Tallahassee for about 2 years and its my go to place when I want a good cup of coffee or to get out of the apt and study or do work. I don't know too much about it but what I can't stress enough is the need for you all to stop in and get one of their cold brew brownies!!! I guess it was last summer, but I went in for a coffee and decided I wanted something sweet, so I got a brownie. My life was changed forever, LOL, this was one of the best brownies I have ever eaten. It was fudgy, it was chocolaty, I think the cold brew was in there like chocolate chips. I went back every single day for like a week and ha half before I made myself stop. I like the Midtown location and I would also recommend the pistachio muffin, but that brownie.... Here is the link to their website: https://luckygoatcoffee.com/
