I appreciated a committee member telling me that they thought my advisor's comments on my chapter drafts were kind of mid/phoned in but now I just want to ignore all her comments and I can't because I do need to finish the PhD LOL

Still thinking about Julio Torres calling the Flatiron neighborhood "the Eataly district"

2224 / but this was also revising and cutting things from a chapter so I actually also removed like 3000 words (this is good, we wanted this)

Feel like Julio Torres' show at Performance Space really buried the lede by not emphasizing that BIBO the robot from Fantasmas is in it

1158 / getting somewhere with the revisions thank god

"more funnier" Jesus I'm tired how embarrassing

This brought to you by me having to explain crown copyright in the dissertation

"The King owns all the swans": weird, gross, who does that

"The Queen owns all the swans": bold, assume they obey her commands, what a weird accident of history

fuck the royals, but also it was so much more funnier to get to talk about The Queen doing stuff than The King, RIP Liz u truly had a better vernacular vibe

Got a spam email that began like this:

Honorable. Ingrid Burrington,

Have a productive day!!

I am honestly kind of into it

I appreciate that an ex of mine didn't rescind his endorsement of my skills in "Microsoft Office" on LinkedIn, really thoughtful of him

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
