When filing taxes we should also be able to tick off a list of where we want our money to go. At least for survey purposes if not policy purposes. Would be much curious.

The word morning has now been replaced by the phrase sinus draining time in my lexicon

little concerning when the person in charge of h1b petition asks what I mean by 'visa'

One of the more fundamental things to which I had to adapt in moving so far north from where I grew up, was seasons. Being continually reminded of the passage of time is an intense experience

My heart and hope are in DC today. As always, following these events on social media is disheartening when I see the illogical counterfactual conspiracy theorists that come up in response.

I just want to not be alone through it all. And find small evidences of humanity and compassion every day. Food, warmth, health, tangible love. I don't know if peace and absence of hate are realistic wants anymore.

Violence begets violence begets violence. We're in the middle of an eternal cycle. World leaders have either forgotten this or embraced this. Caught between cowards and dictators, I don't know where this is going.

I always liked only that purple flavour. But also they brought out a different version like a hard candy product rather than the chalky tablet type?

Didn't they once advertise hajmola as a digestif?

Feel like I should use this app to vent about being on the academic job market even though there's a higher incidence of academics here than x

Feels like american liberal arts academia, the supposed beacon of multiple perspectives, nuanced critical thought, and humanist philosophies is being revealed for its simplistic binary-thought foundations, ruled by "us" and "them" concerns like it's college football. Sigh.

How my brain works: "Ugh this is all so pointless!" 1 sec later "hmm maybe I should watch some Pointless"

Had a big panic attack in the middle of lecturing today. Not entirely sure how I got through it. And two more classes after. Still jittery.

Man, whichever the platform, it's just a lot of anger and hate. Should have a platform exclusively for cute animal pictures and that's all.

Having one of those few mornings where I know I've slept really well. If we could just follow that up with the energy to get out of bed

How did custom bots get an invite before me? 🤔

Mmm, I've been there, and it's very very exhausting. And then because we're tired, we stub our toe or hit the iron pipe or forget where the keys are as we need to leave and get more exhausted. I hope you find some time to nap 🥺

Waking up to pee at 2.30am and saw multiple messages from the other coast saying my father's drunk. Sent to me by drunk people. Never have I been so glad to be living on the other coast from majority of my family.

Saw someone carrying their cat on the hike today. That was interesting. Also three kids. Each with their own water bottle. Not the cat though.

Rounding out summer at ragged mountain. The first and last fully sunny weekend of this summer and I'm using time alone to heal my spirit. Finally got brave enough to do this.

For day 1 of sunny weekend, found a nook on a hill.

it's nice that I can come over here and be firstly greeted with Vadivelu 💜

You'd think, after all these times, I'd have something more witty for a first post, but no. hi!
