Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 02/05/2025You know it's *unconditional*, *unwavering* and *true* love that you're not even slightly mad at the fact that your cat literally broke the brand new shoots off a cutting that's been nothing but a stalk, leaf-less and nearly dead, for two years. It started showing signs of life just a fortnight ago. 100
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 29/04/2025Started two little (personal) projects today - setting up a friendgroup newsletter, and Substack. Pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the latter is to use. 110
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 11/04/2025Apart from all the great presentations at this symposium, one thing that stands out is that I REALLY need to package my work /self better. 000
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 04/04/2025If anyone has any ideas on how I can start writing (non academic) and warm up in media again, I'd like to maybe give it a go (again). Just to keep in touch with my older /ex self, in a way, if that makes sense? I got so much from journalism, and it took so much as well, but I miss it in a weird way. 000
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 24/03/2025Rereading Hunger Games, and it never gets old. On Mockingjay now, and feeling sad that it'll be over, much like the first time reading it. 000

Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 20/03/2025Anyway I have a 2000 word assignment on Platform societies due tomorrow and have done a poor 30 word intro so far that has nothing to do with platforms, nor the society shaped by it. 000
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 20/03/2025Finished Sunrise of the Reaping earlier today and just cracked open my old copy of The Hunger Games to do a lil re-read. Sunrise (Haymitch's story) is good, but feels a bit rushed, a bit filler-esque, compared to both Ballad and HG. 100
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 10/01/2025One person literally just said maybe you can also speak about Palestine, so maybe it's not all of us, it's just you. 031
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 08/01/2025At the cost of sounding catastrophic, Meta's lack of fact checking is EXACTLY what led to ethnic riots in SL eight years ago. They had to be banned, and with this, they started introducing regional Trust and Safety teams. Thanks to layoffs these were mostly crunched down, and now? What a mess. 101
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 08/01/2025The US's spiral and Zuvk's spiral is both horrifying and fascinating to watch 010

Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Watching this 2013 film called Vendetta (not like fantastic) but also not terrible, very creative ways of killing people in it. For vigilante /revenge murders they're quite satisfying? 210

Reposted by AishaAmal El-Mohtar @amalelmohtar.com · 05/12/2024I’d also invite you to consider what stops you. I thoroughly understand weighing the cost of public speech vs other kinds of action, but I do think it’s a weighing that should come from a place of honest self-scrutiny. 1433

Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 29/11/2024I don't hate Aus's Social Media 'ban' for minors. Pretty good tbh, and about time. Corps do need to take more responsibility re the harm that occurs through their platforms. archive.ph/2024.11.29-1...archive.ph 100
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 28/11/2024Really hoping Blusky won't give way subs and advertisers as its primary user base and fuck this space up. Dropped into twt and it's even worse than it was last week (how is that possible) 120
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 24/11/2024Had an inkling of it but properly experienced Pen Elitism among sketchers just today - where an artist at the Sketchers meet was saying how he loves his (seemingly expensive, v fancy) fountain pen bc it's that much better than the Sailor Fude (which imo is expensive enough tbh) 000

Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 20/11/2024Classmate today asked the professor if she picked that particular font for the presentation bc it's viral. Prof was confused, and said it's just Ariel. Turns out it's viral and booming rn bc Charlixcx made it so by using it as her album cover 🫠 110
Aisha @aishaxr.bsky.social · 19/11/2024Honestly, none of this would matter if it snowed. Why is it 'feeling like -3' with just lashings of rain and mad winds? Unfair. 000
