a "getting the team ready" hacker montage but it's set to the Goldberg Variations

@mhedney@historians.social Aliens is also great but a fundamentally different vibe, specifically I think this person will be really taken by the art direction and pacing of original recipe Alien

@colinmford a long walk

@abetterjulie oh i didn't see it until my early 30s and now i own a replica of the uniform baseball cap

how annoying am I allowed to be about telling someone who hasn't seen Alien that they really should watch Alien

1012 / big refactoring of chapter underway, I think it's the right approach but it's pretty tedious ugh

https://buttondown.com/perfectsentences/archive/perfect-sentences-143/ this week in sentences: little more than, ceaselessly bathed, quill-scrawled, propertarian, extortion angle, healthy disregard, used to be, garbage, apocalypse, forceps, august brands, emboldened, hyphenated names

Man that cultural hegemony do be enforcing itself with violence in the wake of increasingly splintered media publics huh

2003 / but it was a blog post to think through some stuff for the dissertation, not the dissertation (but the stuff on planet scale and capitalist realism I think I might run with)

@mjd I think some of it comes from the fact that she is out of her depth with my particular field of research and she's trying to make herself feel relevant?

https://www.sculpture-center.org/exhibitions/14595/a-bunch-of-questions-with-no-answers went to see this video installation my friend Rob worked on at SculptureCenter tonight and there's an opening for another show happening at the same time and honestly felt like I was losing it watching this while a bunch of people network around abstract art

Got basically nowhere on revisions today because it turns out still being mad at my advisor for mismanaging money and lying about it makes me very hostile to her feedback even if some of it is reasonable! I will get past this it's just annoying

what do you mean the thesis statement of this chapter can't be "making hating intellectual property law your entire personality is a pretty shitty politic"

1,903 / but a lot of it was revision and cutting stuff so total is down to 39,365 whooo
