A recent comic I came across this past weekend. It made me laugh a bit, but it also made  me wonder: when did we turn a page as a society where we broadcast our every move... How did this happen? (not an "oh the horror!" type of question, just curious)

Well... I should probably say "mostly done".  There is the Jack The Ripper expansion story that I haven't played yet, but considering that it's almost a separate game, I thought I'd write about the core game (plus "the last maharaja" missions).   So, after I finished Unity I jumped right on to Syndicate (and with the xbox spring sale going on now, I actually picked up Origins...but

Engaging Students Through Social Media: Evidence-Based Practices for Use in Student Affairs by Reynol Junco My rating: 4 of 5 stars I picked this up when it first came out, and I have thumbed through specific sections over the years (as needed for work), but this is the first time I've read from cover-to-cover.

OK, this is the last of my April Fool's posts!  I've never had Jagermeister, but this fake ad was pretty funny (another one I've shared a few times this week).

Continuing with the parade of silly April Fool's Jokes, another one that I've watched, and shared, a few times already on other social media - genetic testing to show you what your character's abilities are in real life.  It's a take on genetic testing that shows where your ancestor's are from, but with a D&D take on it.  Go for charisma and intelligence!

I think this is the only April Fool's joke to come out of an educational provider.  Courses.com.au seems to be a course/job certification website that matches potential students with educational providers in Australia.  This certificate of human survival is perfect for a post-apocalyptic world!

I guess this is the new Sev Fleet phaser setting scale ;-)  I liked this alternate "Setting: ECB - Emergency Commercial Break" (original archive here)
