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

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

https://buttondown.email/perfectsentences/archive/perfect-sentences-23/ this week in sentences: saltwater taffy store, bruises, all interconnected, moon, where the vampires hang out

the Phoenix metro area limiting housing construction because of water supplies being reported without any mention of the giant new TSMC fab being built there annoys me on a visceral level

look I know it was just his last name but "Kelvin" sounds like MidJourney trying to draw a Kevin

making Ramsey watch the original Clone High so we can watch the reboot and man, that show is a very rich time capsule of 2002 vibes (a personal favorite reference: "say hello to the next Bubba Sparxxx")
