yesterday I told a stranger about my research and they thought it was cool and wow I really needed that validation!!

listening to Wizard of Earthsea as I type an entire section of a French article on mining in World War II into DeepL because every time I try to OCR it for translation I get gobbledygook, this is fine

@jesse I could maybe ILL it, but the turnaround time will probably be slow relative to when I have to turn this thesis in (8 days from now lol)
