surgery recovery update: with the rain I got a massive wind of the scent of rain and GREEN THINGS this morning, so I finally managed to take a (brief) walk to my beloved local heath between the rain showers

one of the joys of #BAAS2026 is getting very excited about scholarship again, post-PhD. another is that Glasgow is beautiful

an impromptu D’Angelo memorial in Soho, London caught me very emotional coming off Dean St (thinking of @theferocity.bsky.social and @zachstafford.bsky.social’s discussion on Vibe Check this morning while listening ❤️)

absolutely predictable and frustrating that as soon as I started doing manual edits, I was able to crack a bunch of issues in the dissertation I couldn’t wrap my head around. once again, doing things without the computer… good

I just feel like this kind of reporting is deeply fucking stupid - how would people on Medicaid somehow miraculously find coverage elsewhere? when I was on Medicaid it was because I couldn’t AFFORD insurance on the marketplace

genuinely the tower of london remains one of the most upsetting sites i have ever visited - the insides of some of the towers are completely covered in carved graffiti. how long must someone have been trapped to carve this into stone? how long?

this advert on the tube really broke my heart - what does it say about our relationship with the prison and with state executions that we jokingly suggest it is the ideal place to take “troublemaking” children on summer holidays?
