I kept thinking that there was some sort of significance to yesterday,but couldn’t remember what it was. Just dawned on me that it was my 14th anniversary of being on the best place in cyberspace.

Looks like I've been here for a bit over 15 yrs, where the fekkin' time goes...? At that time I was in search of proper bootcut jeans. https://forum.ironheart.co.uk/topic/3489/2010-edition-iron-heart-triple-works-edition-waywt/281?_=1755708022258

I went so see a fascinating talk by Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear Solid, Death Stranding) and George Miller (Mad Max, Happy Feet) at the Sydney Film Festival a couple of months ago. If you want to catch the re-run, it's now on YouTube.

Happy Back to School for all you parents out there! And a special shout out to 2 of our esteemed educators here @Mizmazzle and @Oaktavia hope the year starts off well and keeps getting better. 6…7 !!!!!!

Oaktavia

@SKT thanks buddy, so far, so good!

SKT

@Oaktavia mine are in 6th and 8th this year so right in the thick of middle school and I (sort of) know what you guys have to deal with. Some skibidi here…some Ohio there. Hope it’s a fun year

Speaking of back to school, anyone else in school right now? My semester just started yesterday, and my brain is already mush.

Oaktavia

@seawolf what kind if schooling are you up to? I finished my Masters a few years back and do not miss those days.

I couldn't wait to leave undergrad studies behind me to focus on project-focused practical courses. Teaching medical and science undergrads myself during my PhD and post-doc on the other hand was actually quite entertaining. Nothing better than telling an annoying student that they were all there of their own free will and they could leave at any time. They would fail the course, but that's their problem, not mine

Oaktavia

@Tago-Mago oh wow, so its Dr. Mago? Thats friggin amazing man. Highly admirable.

@Oaktavia thanks, I loved my time in academia, but I’m not made for it. Progressing along the tenure track means getting further away from actual research and getting stuck in bureaucracy and grant proposals. Not what I enjoy. And that’s before you take the minuscule probability of getting a permanent position into account

I was never enthusiastic about going back to school until recently when I had the opportunity to have it paid for by someone else! I’m getting a masters in library science. And my brain is in perpetual mush-mode.

Mizmazzle

@SKT thanks brother! Things are rolling along pretty good! I’ve been screening student candidates for my reading program the last few weeks. My first students come Monday!

SKT

@Mizmazzle awesome man! Here’s to a great year

Mizmazzle

@SKT cheers indeed!! And good luck with your little manimals too!
