Alice @wordsbyalice.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Swedish premiere of Fjord with Cristian Mungiu during his first audience talkback of the awards cycle. Mungiu made it very clear he wanted to film to cause discussion and to make audiences reflect on their biases, but he’s not taking sides at all. Which does not go over well with some people 120

Alice @wordsbyalice.bsky.social · 20/01/2026This is how it feels rn to no longer be working my job while all of *gestures* is happening 010
Alice @wordsbyalice.bsky.social · 20/01/2026One of my favorite (little) things about Singapore is the bag charm culture. Even the middle aged business men have plush keychains with their favorite Pokémon on them. 040
Alice @wordsbyalice.bsky.social · 31/12/2025My 2026 resolutions: - Become C1 in Swedish - Go back to school to study physics (so tired of comms as a career) - Finish editing my current book - Become B2 in Mandarin (and pass the HSK3) - Speak more Romanian - Practice the same kindness towards myself that I practice towards others 060
Alice @wordsbyalice.bsky.social · 09/12/2025If you saw me at 6am chugging a Red Bull, finishing it, and then chugging the coffee in my other hand: no you didn’t ❤️ 000
Alice @wordsbyalice.bsky.social · 19/09/2025Not to be dramatic, but I've spent the past few months grappling with how I went to school next to a nuclear waste dump. The radiation exposure likely caused my parent's brain tumor and my immune disorder. I can't help but be angry at how society failed us and exposed generations of people to this. 010

Alice @wordsbyalice.bsky.social · 18/08/2025My entire teens and 20s was people telling me what I should do to be “successful” which has only led to me being 30 and hating my career. So I’m firmly discounting advice from people now. Vibes only! 000

Alice @wordsbyalice.bsky.social · 11/08/2025Okay, gotta be real: my Ember mug, which keeps my coffee/tea at my desired temperature?? Most unnecessary thing I own that's I use every single day. This skeet brought to you by me forgetting my tea for thirty minutes. 000
Alice @wordsbyalice.bsky.social · 08/08/2025Sunt așezat. Angajații teatrului sunt speriați și vor să plec pentru că „încă nu e decembrie”, dar eu sunt prea așezat. 100

Reposted by AliceAlisdair Calder McGregor @acmcgregor.bsky.social · 30/07/2025Ada Loveland, Grace Hopper and Margaret Hamilton are the patron saints of programming for good reason. Hamilton also coined the term "software engineering"; she got told off for it by (male) hardware engineers as they felt it was "inflating her work's importance". 08232
