Getting an impromptu tour of an artist's collectives exhibition at MoMA by one of the artists in the collective, what a treat

(like not so allergic that I can't go near them at all but allergic enough that I shouldn't pet them a bunch without washing my hands)

My neighbor's pet sitter had to bail last minute and I am stepping in this weekend, good time to remember that I'm allergic to cats

The Mid Guy Theory of History

Update: landed, phew

Well one bright spot today is I ran into a neighborhood Cane Corso named Thelma and she gave me a big lean and a jump

partner is on a cross country flight to CA today, probably gonna be a little on edge until he lands given Everything

Went on a tangent about minerals in class and a student said "the professor yearns for the mines"

hitting a weird edge case in outlook for web where if I try to start a new email the page reloads—cache clearing doesn't work, logging out and back in doesn't work, restarting browser doesn't work. forums suggest this is an ongoing thing since earlier this month. i only use outlook for my adjunct job at a school that's all in on microsoft. deeply annoyed!!

https://buttondown.com/perfectsentences/archive/perfect-sentences-112/ this week in sentences: remake the world, Toronto, a concept, drinking games, how to respond, silent groups, crappy hat, revel, all we have left, a genuine reason, enough of a fool, no model, contemptible, giving birth, oscilloscope, ugly font, ass handed

Update: it appears he has been adopted which is probably for the best, glad someone has taken that sweet guy in

"Neon Genesis Aladdin"

Watching the live read of Conclave instead of actually watching Conclave feels right idk https://youtu.be/ZG4GyjgtSZU

Is this actually a thing or did I just make up a kind of guy

Do you have any idea how hard it is to search for "skinny guy in movie whose hair is a little too long and usually is maybe a drug dealer or a stalker but also maybe likes poetry and is sensitive???"

Mitch from Dazed and Confused: shoulder length hair, innocent
Ziggy Sobotka from The Wire season 2: mostly in "overdue for a haircut" territory, more pitiful than villain but still kinda sucks
That guy in the Arkangel episode of Black Mirror: basically bottom of the neck, absolutely a predator

Further research is needed

Developing a theory of the Skinny Rat Boy archetype in which there is a precise length of too-long stringy hair that shifts the character from piteous but maybe hot?? to Villainy
