@tealtan another day in the big apple in 1972

oh right everything in the 1970s looks like this because of pollution

@klara if they don't have Spiders-Man in the third movie they are cowards

I regret to inform you that Spiders-Man, the hive mind of thousands of spiders who believe they are a man named Peter Parker, is not in the new movie

my advisor was like "I want you to focus on your book this summer because there's too much uncertainty and writing books is the thing you came here to do" bless

@kdawson I had coffee with Andrew just before I went down what became like three years of my creative practice lol, he's delightful

@aworkinglibrary no body, no score to keep 😎

@kdawson oh man, cruel world

the soundtrack, honestly, it's got some sick needle drops

@essaygames i mean i use the 2007 iPhone keynote in classes but beyond that? yeah

i'm more of a vision amateur (wears glasses)

@ashley probably less, but like I rewrote an entire section today and it's due Thursday--bad sign!

look, getting a funded MA was pretty sweet and at this point if I want to try for a PhD somewhere else I will, but going into academia was always a means to the end of "getting paid to write and make cool shit", not the end in itself. mostly the bummer is I do really like my advisor and enjoy working with her!

my advisor told me she hoped I had plans to "decompress" tonight as I (mostly) wrapped up my stupid grant proposal and like, I am entirely certain that I'm not going to get this grant?? So instead of "decompressing" I think I am "looking for a job because there are no other avenues for funding my PhD so I'm dropping out" hahahaha

a great time to double down on headset technology that has consistently failed to obtain widespread adoption is definitely during a recession
