I want to vent about something but I don't want to be an asshole so I'm just gonna vague post. I understand why academics don't try to foster relationships w ppl and orgs outside of academia because the more niche knowledge you obtain the less relatable you are to ppl not in your field

I put the TikTok app away in a folder and I'm trying really hard to stop using it. I'm still scrolling reels on IG when I have a bit of downtime like at lunch but otherwise I'm trying to break the doomscrolling habit!

when something scary happens to ilhan i think about this photo. you’d never know from how brave she is that she isn’t seven feet tall. we’ve all got to have her back, because she isn’t just some character on capitol hill, she’s a real human, with real children, who deserves to be safe in her home.
me and ilhan and i am big and she is tiny

So I guess our basement was flooding since 4am and our downstairs neighbor didn't say shit to us until almost 10pm and we had to tell her to talk to landlord because what the fuck? And she's surprised we couldn't hear it flooding but we live on the 2nd floor like I can't hear dhif

Day 3 of my comps exams and I'm set out to finish drafting the last part today. I should have all day tomorrow and all day Friday to edit which is really good timing. I'm just so exhausted though I went to bed so early last night. Writing for 9 hours straight is not that enjoyable

Quick exam break, got up and did some stretching. My back tweaked this morning from the stress so I already took 3 ibuprofen and I'm working with a heating bad on my back. So far it's been 2.5 hours and I'm onto the third page (single spaced). Aiming for 8 pages today.

I wanted to like Primetime with Robert Pattinson but I felt like it wasn't focused enough on at least one thing. The movie could have gone more into what it's like to film a tv show or more into working with predator but it was really scattered

The washing machine that came with this apartment was owned by the last tenet and she essentially sold it to us when we moved in but it's 11 years old and kinda shitty. Well I just went to go switch my laundry to the dryer and it feels like burnt rubber in there 😭 and now my clothes stink. Omfg.

i am incredibly excited to share our research about how paying people’s rent through mutual aid made an impact on minnesota this year we accidentally collected more data than anyone ever has for an effort like this, and can very seriously say we prevented an eviction bubble that everyone expected
