BDS win with Microsoft feels pretty huge. Hopefully more and more companies follow suit. No business with apartheid states committing genocide.

Your small dog starts ringing at 11:17 pm. He begins frantically making noises that sound like someone trying to approximate human speech if they were pushing air through stretched cellophane. What does this make you feel?

Now getting a high dose of antibiotics and a vaccination at the same time may be bad for my ability to work today. But I slept last night so maybe it will be fine.

The chaperone who is there to make sure I don't get exploited during my genital exam literally looked away the whole time like ma'am how are you chaperoning like that

BEST NEW IMAGE JUST DROPPED

this was a fantastic project for getting to learn about as well as draw some very cool rocks and the symbols that might be on them

I know it's a dead horse at this point but Bilewater is just legitimately unfun for 80% of it and the bench would be funny if it didn't suck so much ass to do anything here

Random migraines and fatigue are the devil

Insomnia plus unclear vague work goals plus no Adderall is a recipe for wasting time online that I should be working

Rude ass phone auto suggesting "I am bad at..." To be finished with "mental health"

So the sleep aid, as evidenced by posting at 1:43 am, is not working

Not having job security is a fucked up thing bc like I won't even get the chance to breathe after defending really

And there's emails too

I have to finish a fellowship application, my defense presentation, and fully synthesizing my dissertation this week and I have so little energy. The fear is here now.

Person who does not, by any measure, have plany of time: oouuuh I got plany o time

Have not seen enough fat bears this week. Where are they? I thought it was their time.

The great thing I need to remember more is that stands often have jack shit to do with what they do. Born This Way didn't need to do that.

I do not like remembering the duck work I did though. Like... I get how animal research can be helpful for wildlife work but. Damn. Those ducks I raised were stolen from nests and literally never saw the sun. Shit is depressing.

Sometimes I remember how I was doing so gd much when I was in undergrad and am like how the fuck. I didn't even have a car for a lot of it.

wii fit tips ‼️ #art

Its been a minute since I've seen any Price is Right and holy shit they do A Brand New Caaaaarrr! So so much

I love Ajani but hate how hard he is to draw. Lions have strange proportions, he has tiger markings also, and the goddamn braids are an additional nightmare as someone who's not great at drawing hair.

Gnoll gnoises

Don't teach cats how to smoke but if you did would their meows become more gruff?

Paramount+ giving a lead role for a prestige television show for the guy from Artic Dogs????

I hate when extremely formulaic music ends up still being nevertheless good.

THEY DEFORMED ME, COOP. REDUCED ME DOWN TO ONLY MY MOST RECOGNIZABLE CHARACTERISTICS. I’M A CUTESY SHELL OF MY FORMER SELF. THE BOYS AT QUANTICO ARE CALLING ME A “CHEE-BEE.” I’M SEVEN CENTIMETERS TALL, COOP. 150 GRAMS OF VINYL PLASTIC.

A "don't watch the anime if you haven't read the manga" style post but it's about Echo and Twin Peaks: The Return

Getting major imposter syndrome reading what a different PhD student did in a year and feeling like you're playing with wooden blocks over here to spell out "blu bery"

Birdsky is out for blood

*taps the sign*

If your username on social media gets designated as a terrorist group should you change it?

NGL feels a lil fucked up that universities will make new jobs for the spouse of a new hire. Like getting a professorship without even applying is fucking wild.

By your mid to late thirties you should start posting it occasionally anyway

What's extra frustrating vis a vis "adults having been right" is that my dad loved saying "One day you will look back and think 'Gee, Dad was right about this'". He was wrong, ultimately, as the reaction is moreso "God damnit Dad was right about this".

it's annoying as fuck that the adults of my youth did sometimes give me good advice that i wasn't prepared to take, and that there's no way for me to break that cycle when speaking to the youths today

Having a scene about franchising leading to consistently prepared cheaper food with no personality to appease the market followed up with a ruined woman watching a 10 second loop of a boxing match as she keeps getting up and making drinks ... Phenomenal. Get their ass.

I don't want to over hype but people are not kidding that David Lynch is on some genius shit here.

ive said it before and ill say it again

It's funny because the wafer to ice cream proportion doesn't look like it could possibly be right but when you take a bite you realize they know what the fuck they're doing and you're an idiot

They need to invent an extra hour in the day reserved for either chores or hobbies.

Like admittedly the main furry sources I follow have Echo biases so it makes sense that I see a lot more Echo and Adastra fanart but also like. The only other FVN that feels even close other than Morenatsu in terms of reach is Remember the Flowers and that's like. Not nearly as prominent afaik.

It is interesting to me that despite the amount of FVNs that exist, there are only like 3/4 that I can think of that are big enough that you can expect your average furry to have engaged with them. And frankly idk if Morenatsu even has that anymore with how old it is. Also not sure if NitW counts.

Feeling mid day fatigue and feverishness return right before my defense is a big ruhroh moment

media is one of the most beautiful things you can have a club about. plus

Me: aww this is a cute animal video that seems to show them safe and happy and well cared for too The spectre that haunts me and hates joy: the depiction of cute domestic animals in short video format contributes to their commodification in the real world and it's free advertising for the pet tra-

I can't share it because privacy but my parents have a baby picture of my grandpa that is astounding because despite the fact that babies generally look like babies, this baby extremely clearly is the same man who I didn't meet until he was in his 50s. That's what Boyhood wanted and didn't get.

I do hope the Boyhood kid is okay though. Like being a child actor usually isn't a great time and to be in a 12 year contract from before you are 12 is something I can imagine having some sort of effect. Like almost twice your experienced life if you are 7.
