A call for public #adjunct discussion of #COCAL_Updates + Sunday Matinee

…because reactions to "adios Updates" post are not landing in comments on blog post or social media. Although about making resources public and open, comments and discussion have not been. Likewise, the original notice ("...in addition to Joe Berry’s regular COCAL updates"), posted publicly went without comment.

On Facebook, discussion appears to be 100% backchannel via pm and closed group -- or groups. Elsewhere, I have no idea, but transparency and open discussion would be more productive. So I'm working on an "Updates Update" Precarity Dispatches post to clarify and (I hope) encourage open discussion, even volunteers for a collaborative Updates Archive Project

-- there not here because PD is the news branch of the PF Network (independent, unaffiliated and not an organization). This is the reflection, topic development (as opposed to curation), movies, and sometimes even occasional whimsy branch. More fun and exploration, less duty/obligation. For my personal precarious faculty blogging, Majority Rising = liberation

Now, what sounds good for a movie...or two? Free of course. How ur-adjunct does Depression Era comedy My Man Godfrey (1936)  from the Internet Archives sound? Roger Ebert reviews My Man Godfrey
