Still puzzling at how, exactly, I should credit ‘fan fiction editing, no really, multiple hundred-thousands of words, actually paid’ on a resume. I can’t use the anonymous authors as references. ‘Just trust me bro’ is an unfortunate chunk of my more recent work.

Small update, if any of my grad friends are still on here instead of Bluesky- our water heater BURST and soaked two closets, a hallway, part of a stairway. Down to the insulation. The hallway has been Replaced, fully.

excuse me, when did we get the ability to view likes on our posts back? did the users of this site actually claw back a feature that was paywalled? if so, incredible work y’all

No, no, I’m not salty about advanced queries being available/search being functional AT ALL on tumblr, only just now, the year AFTER I completed my thesis. I’m fine. It’s fine. *muffled screaming*

am I irrationally anxious or am I having a perfectly normal reaction to surging xenophobia, worsening geopolitical unrest and a tech industry that seems keen to abolish human literature and creativity

I try to phrase that sentiment as ‘check your library first’. Like, ‘spending your own money to get things you want’ is unavoidable, so it’s pretty dang cool whenever you can avoid doing that.

This is one of the funniest ways I’ve seen someone describe #DraculaDaily, but they certainly aren’t wrong. There’s something peculiar about the events existing in a way both removed from time and beholden to it.
