Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I need a locked account to talk more, but y'all, I just rediscovered that quality sleep is the basis for any treatment of a mood disorder from first principles. Your girl is a MORON, but also I'm really relieved that my brain meds haven't been slowly getting less effective over the last six months. 3180
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Oh thank GOD the worm thing was about the guy from Entourage. I spent the last 48 hours thinking we were talking about the former mayor of Chicago and like. I think he’s fucking nuts, but I didn’t really want to know if Rahm had gone THAT nuts /0/ 230
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Dear departmental boss and math chair, I am opting out of this e-mail exchange/narrative about overlapping class times. Scheduling is not my job, therefore I REFUSE to provide emotional intelligence between grown ass adults who can't write an e-mail without sounding pissed off. xoxo, Set 0130
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 22/09/2026My neighbors' 1 year old is melting down (the craft room in my apartment shares a wall with her bedroom) and honestly BIG MOOD GIRL. God I wish it were appropriate for 40 year olds to just start screeching for no reason other than having too many feelings, I'd join in said meltdown! 3191
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I mean, it depends - I think she'd be bummed as fuck to discover that it's actually just a chronic condition living with depression and anxiety, but ecstatic to find out that I'd figured out a way to work in education that didn't involve teaching anyone grammar ever 😂 1140
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 15/09/2026… look, this point I’ve resigned myself to having my phone number sold to politicians until I die. But I think I am mildly offended that they think I care about NATE SILVER in the year of our lord 2026. GOD. 5150
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Oh GOD I love working for the state - when the start of the fiscal year came and went back in July, I just assumed that meant no COLA this year. But no, WE STILL DON'T KNOW YES OR NO. We'll probably find out by early October??? State budgets' relationship to higher ed are a clusterfuck folks /0/ 290
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Every once in a while I remember that it was a plot point in Timothy Zahn’s OG Star Wars trilogy that you could recognize a clone because they put unnecessary extra vowels in their name. AND THEN I REMEMBER LUUKE SKYWALKER AND I JUST START CACKLING AGAIN. God I should reread them at some point. 160
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 12/09/2026I’m going to blame yesterday’s covid and flu shots for the reason why I spent the night dreaming about an evil clown named Friendpatine after watching a bunch of video essays about politics in Star Wars, but also IT’S A VERY FITTING AU??? (Thankfully not nightmares, just weird and unsettling.) 0140
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Lovely day with @inlovewithnight.bsky.social eating all of the sweet things and going to bookstores \0/ I am going to declare bankruptcy on backreading tho, so let me know if anything exciting happened <3333 3101

Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Took a page out of @marlataviano.bsky.social’s book and got excited and made things! (Ryan and Fabian and Frog and Toad, inspired by her DELIGHTFUL Shane/Ilya series) 050
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 31/08/2026frtdneatj, I ended up opening a ton of Obi-Wan/Qui-Gon fic and I’m going through my open tabs to decide what I’m putting on my Kindle to read.

Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 28/08/2026The thing you must understand is that our add/drop deadline is Monday, so I've spent the afternoon with a FLURRY of students who need advice about adjusting schedules. So literally EVERY TIME I've refreshed this page it's felt like a new set of Mad Libs being published 🤣🤣🤣 170

Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Huh. If we're literal about the last book read, I'm a journalist working to trace stories of child deaths in orphanages.

Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 20/08/2026I'd like a cookie for not screaming in the middle of the departmental retreat at our Dean about how THE FUCKING EARTH IS ON FIRE, STOP CREATING WORKLOAD SITUATIONS WHERE USING CLAUDE IS THE OFFICAL ADVICE. FUCK. (I also need to firebomb the state government for more funding, but one step at a time) 0120
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 20/08/2026The worst part about working for a department too broke to pay for catering delivery is sitting in the Chipotle just SMELLING the food and knowing I don’t get to eat it for a good 20 minutes. (I mean, that and the fact that I’m pretty sure I get asked to be the pickup person because I’m a woman /0/) 0110
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Honestly if we’re talking about the first one I bought myself (as opposed to the ones I grew up listening to, because I am slightly younger than CDs) I will still stand by my choice of the Waiting to Exhale soundtrack. There were some BANGERS!! 160
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 18/08/2026I just feel like SURELY there's somewhere in the Star Wars Fallen Order universe that is nice and quiet for me to get a job and live my life in. I'm already living in the heart of an evil empire, how would this be different??? 180

Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Set, you KNOW that reading a Cyrano de Bergerac AU as a WiP is going to make you sad in the middle while they’re figuring shit out! YOU DID THIS TO YOURSELF!!! 150
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 13/08/2026I mean, how much of my hatred of my recorded voice is the usual dysphoria everyone has because we all think our voices should sound lower and how much is internalized misogyny because my voice makes me cringe with how young and stupid it sounds? IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW REALLY /0/ 3120
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Having just finished the most recent Ana and Din book, I gotta say I was NOT expecting to find so much resonance with this 6 hour long YouTube essay I watched a few weeks ago, but like.

Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Have realized that climate change is making me treat tornado sirens kind of like how I treated fire alarms in undergrad. "Oh it's probably just popcorn/I bet it's not coming anywhere near me, let's just go back to sleep/work" Will probably bite me in the ass at some point, but I'M TOO TIRED TO CARE. 190
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 10/08/2026I'll admit, I don't know a TON about the economy of South Africa, but I do kind of feel like there probably wasn't a good reason for a white person to move there during apartheid that wasn't just racism. I'm willing to be wrong (sometimes you just gotta move for a job!) but. Uh. I'M DUBIOUS. 150
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 09/08/2026It’s just so distressingly QUAINT that this documentary about a man who committed so many heinous crimes starts off with his neighbor in Denmark reporting him to the cops for possession of 7 rifles. I think the cops in the US would laugh you right out of the station /0\ 170
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I shouldn’t laugh, because it IS serious, but also I LOVE THE TIKTOK GIRLIES SO MUCH RIGHT NOW. 170
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 06/08/2026The office suite where my new office is has no light switches, just holes in the wall where the wiring used to be.

Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Just got a new fridge at work, and the delivery guy is on loan from TEXAS??? I'm assuming there must be more to the story than "Lowes only uses contractors for their delivery" but the middle of Texas to Northern Kentucky isn't actually a short trip! 070

Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 02/08/2026It’s just deeply hilarious to me that the more enthusiastic I get about trying out perfumes to wear on my body, the more I hate scents in my laundry. Apparently it’s not that I dislike perfumes in general, just cheap ones 😂😂😂 180
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 31/07/2026I’m watching an (incoherent but interesting) YouTube video about the history of steroids in baseball. This isn’t an argument that the video is making, and I don’t have enough evidence to make it for real, but. Uh. Did we only start caring about doping in sports when POC started breaking records? 290
Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 31/07/2026I know it’s not actually funny that folks in the early days of processional horse racing would give their horses cocaine. I know, a horse can’t consent! It is inherently cruel! BUT ALSO OH MY GOD I CAN’T STOP GIGGLING. /0\ 060

Set (sansets) @sansets.bsky.social · 29/07/2026So usually it's fiction alphabetically by author, with subsections for graphic novels and poetry, and then non-fiction arranged by subject. But. Uh.
