phd candidate at UVa stupid opinions sadly mine 📍dc + cville
haven’t even been in dc for a month and I’m already at the taking the train back to Charlottesville every weekend level of denial because I miss my places
why is a “journalist” at CNN “interviewing” AI
CNN@cnn.com · last mo.Tilly Norwood has been billed the first AI "actor" in Hollywood which raises questions about what awards synthetic performers should be nominated for. In an exclusive chat with CNN's Elizabeth Wagmeister, Tilly Norwood responded to questions about winning an Oscar.
we moved to dc and 1) the cats have never lived somewhere with stairs, lots to process 2) Abe and Harry hanging together no matter where I live has become something of a gag and I love it very much
fr though my 20s were like laughably bad—had to escape an abusive relationship, got a grapefruit sized tumor that cost me an organ and much of my sanity, had a generally horrible and traumatizing time in graduate school—but in my 30th yr I’ll finish the PhD, am moving to DC, starting a new job
these ppl keep doing my dissertation (which is about the 1790s-1830s) in real time
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2mo agoBASH: One of the things that's happening is there's a push to start students down a trade school track as early as elementary school. Is that too early? LINDA McMAHON: I don't think so BASH: But elementary school? McMAHON: I think you can have some introduction of skilled trades in elementary
I’m moving in 2 weeks and I’m really depressed about it and I am really bad at life transitions and phoebe bridgers picked this week to give me a new album
there’s something so Japanese House about the new Phoebe Bridgers record
its worth asking whether this ending would have happened without the endless, gleeful, hunting and dismantling of Arday's choices on Twitter, where he represented all the sins of DEI made flesh for a range of assorted disgruntled academics who once had to go to a training and hated it
Ketan Joshi@ketanjoshi.co · 2mo agoMan, I only just caught with this story. What a tragic ending. www.telegraph.co.uk/gift/afdfd24...
this is exactly how I felt hearing Cameron Winter’s voice on the new Phoebe Bridgers album
15 min into the new Phoebe album and I’ve said “holy shit” out loud 4 times already god I’ve missed her
yesterday my phone died and simply never turned back on again (which was ultimately some kind of factory defect) but it meant I had to drive from Charlottesville to the Apple Store in Richmond with no phone and directions on a sticky note like Lewis and Clark or some shit
the universe knows I’m pure of heart and love all living creatures so I’ve been blessed with a new baby bird sighting nearly every day this summer
back to my roots (rewatching Netflix Daredevil for the 500th time)
5 years of living in charlottesville means 5 years of finding out from Instagram when Dave Matthews is 2 blocks from my house and missing the random casual run in of my dreams every single time 💔
I love how every day in charlottesville they’re digging up a new road and then giving it the worst patch job imaginable so no matter where I go I’m driving on a mariokart course
given the state of things just generally I hate to say this but spider man brand new day was good
I made dinner for my abuser a bunch of times. You have to play nice while you're planning your escape so you don't get dead. Max Miller is a textbook abuser.
not the point but why does this look like the Mamma Mia! movie poster lol
Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social · 3mo agoI admire our government's new commitment to honesty.
my friend (not an early americanist) couldn’t remember what SHEAR was called and recently asked if I’m excited to attend SMORE this weekend
sticking my tongue out at reckless drivers instead of flipping the bird in hopes that they find it cute and unexpected and don’t think to shoot me
have started adding a popsicle to this evening routine
Bethany@bmcgx.bsky.social · 5mo agoevery night I go for a walk around my neighborhood and record my cat stats and tonight was an all timer (saw 12, pet 5)
Literally the fact that we’re still talking about this guy after the tattoo thing is so embarrassing. What is wrong with you people???
Kat Tenbarge@kattenbarge.bsky.social · 3mo agoRe: Graham Platner, I felt like I was being punked when people acted like he wasn’t obviously dishonest and untrustworthy this entire time. Starting with the unbelievable defense of his tattoo, which I was shocked to see people fall for
