New fear unlocked. 😱 The life of an Archivist is wild. One minute you're merrily scanning through a folder of old photographs, the next you've uncovered something like this and it feels you're starring in the pre-title sequence of a 70s horror movie.

Why do we need a buff slug? I hate all this fan service shit, enough with the mindless, poorly written spin offs. This picture is almost making me misty eyed for Space Quadrophenia in the Book of Boba Fett.

It is wrong to ascribe intelligence to one side of the political spectrum and assume the other side is “dumb”, doesn’t do the work, or somehow took advantage of their classmates/lecturers.

It’s that time of the year again. #iwd #internationalwomensday

Oh no! Anyway.
