Had a shitty day at work and all I want is to curl up with something cozy and comforting but I have to go pick up a visiting scholar from the airport and take them to dinner later tonight. This is all bullshit.

I don't want artists to consume other people's art to reproduce it in their medium. I want artists to consume other people's art to be inspired to make their own art in their own mediums.

I love funk and jazz on vinyl — Nina Simone, Booker T. and the MGs, Ella Fitzgerald, Roberta Flack etc.

Y’all want to help me decide my next research project? My heart says one, my head says another. You can probably guess. A. Medical schools and the body trade in 18/19c US B. Women who swapped/trans-ed gender to work on ships in the Age of Sail

Writing is an endless experiment. Take risks, write wild, and let yourself be a hot mess—it’s the only way to grow! 🌱🌱

Listening to John Denver is getting me through grading exams — which are truly depressing because half are failing and I’m trying to figure out why. Anyways, now I need a “We Belong Awake” reread 😭 @flagmeanssteph.bsky.social

Really annoyed that my spicy brain is making food choices really hard this week. I keep getting turned off stuff and my safe choices are dwindling. 😒

Pre-orders will open from October 15-31! I'm still working out the price, but it should be $25-$30 for the physical and $12 for digital. Proceeds will once again be donated to The Rainbow Railroad.

I’ve been asked to teach my Golden Age of Piracy course again next academic year. Yay! More chances to proselytize for OFMD 😊🏴‍☠️

I cannot believe it’s been three years since OFMD S2 dropped! If season one Stede spoke to me in a way that told me I could be my whole self, season two Ed told me I could make it through the storm and be worthy of love no matter what. #LongLiveOFMD #crewforlife

I am almost done with the bedroom and am happy to report it is very Ed-coded purple 💜 And also just realized my bathroom is like the dark green/teal shirt that Stede wears in S2!

Waking up; checking bsky; smiling, giggling and, kicking my feet like a little kid because my fellow pirates DELIVERED. I love how much Rhys and Taika love each other and I hope to Calypso they get to work together more! 🥹 PS so glad Rima was there too!

I believe this 100 percent because of the way I’ve heard him talk about female academics. Plus he was an asshole to a friend of mine and that makes me mad.

Yeah, it is. If my book ever comes out, I’ve literally thought of getting one of those stand-in gay parents 😂 I just don’t want to share any of the good stuff now.

She’s obsessive over the work my sibling does and always asks me tons of questions about them (even though she could ask them herself). Never asking how teaching is, what I’m teaching, etc. I know it’s because we don’t agree politically, or literally about anything, but neither do she and my sib?

Honestly I just want to go one week without feeling like shit about myself because my mother doesn’t recognize anything I do as legit. She never asks me about my work or shows any interest in what I do. Sometimes that’s a good thing. But …

My 8yo australian shepherd is the biggest baby/grumpy old man about everything. Obsessed with routine and throws a fit if it gets changed too much. But I love him to bits.
