Holy shit I miss my dog right now

mostly having 2004 deja vu tbh

- I guess I'm definitely volunteering for my Muslim city councilwoman's re-election campaign (she's facing a zionist primary challenger)

I knew Nabiha would be bad news for the org but damn

Passed my quals, I am the riddle master now

Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat was extraordinary!! Highly recommend. It's at Film Forum if you're in NYC https://my.filmforum.org/events/soundtrack-to-a-coup

the Wicked movie looks great and I am excited to watch it

you gotta understand I am a former theater kid who grew up reading the super fucked up b-side Oz books that my dad had when he was a kid

also the novel the musical is based on!! is fun!! i will enjoy a lil spectacle as a treat sorry

like the audience for this will probably be ux designers or something and i just don't have it in me to tell them to like use standard fonts and make less js-heavy websites to do their part

working on a "internet infrastructure, what is it" talk for the first time in a while and really tempted to just turn it into a call for butlerian jihad
