this silly guy got good grades from the vet for his clean teef and ideal weight
got drawn to the tankobon in the bookstore (frieren v. 1-3) and i miss my teenage years when I used to collect these freely* *tankobon translated to indo are way cheaper than american tankobon by at least 50%
i could go to office and work or i could stay home/inside with the 100+ AQI HMMMMMMMMM
ah welcome to august in oregon, when the risk of wildfire is high
when a millennial hear the phrase “I got bronchitis,” their immediate response should be “ain’t nobody got time for that”
was gonna try a different indo restaurant in pdx and legit got thrown off by their rijstaffel menu, like are they…indo dutch? i can’t separate the concept of rijstaffel from the colonial timeframe???
stop paying for AI, I'll tell you lies and make you go insane for free
had a hard time falling asleep last night from brain on overdrive lay fully awake in bed and thought: omg the academia TT vs NTT is sexist (guilty of week 8, see below) the TT/NTT division and perception stem from the patriarchal gender role, ie men create/research, women nurture/teach
Time to offer this seminar again I see.
honestly I could type poopoo peepee on palatino font and immediately it looks erudite despite its content
why did i write such an ambitious abstract and how the F am i gonna condense everything into a 5 minute lightning talk gddmn it michelle you dumbass

the news is morbid but could we applaud the writer for including the phrase "the biblically ominous 6.66% figure"
The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage reached 6.66% on average Thursday. n.pr/4yLOb5f
a friend just reported what they encountered on a dating app and ABSOLUTELY NOT this is ILLEGAL FLIRT, instant RED CARD
ok so there’s this one pilates instructor I like in my studio and i realized today that her playlist seems to be part of the performance (which makes sense cuz music elicits physical response—see merriam’s functions of music)
bawled out post-lesson on tuesday (haven’t had intense emotions like that in a long while), dissected it with my therapist on wednesday, then this morning my phone said “oh btw ur gonna have period soon” 💀💀💀
there’s no way a person named bob lawless is a professor of law??? (also the name is too close to bob loblaw from arrested development)
thinking about how hunter x hunter came out in 1998 and we’re 2 years away from 2028 and it still has not finished
Q for californians: do y'all know if memorization is required for piano students in the MTAC certificate of merit program? handbook is hidden behind a wall :/
TIL: not every state MTA offers syllabus exams (do folks w/o state syllabus exams just do syllabus exams thru other orgs, e.g., NFMC, ABRSM, or RCM?), which is understandable bc creating a system that big requires so much labor & expertise not every state has.
seeing a new leaf popped up is such a nice surprise moved this ficus to office earlier this month and it’s known to being easily stressed second pic from years ago fresh off costco prob should force it to branch but I’m too afraid it will fail
not my korean american wife going: you can have rice, gailan, and MOZZARELLA STICK for lunch.
we live our lives imagining we’re heroes or tragic characters like eponine, javert, fantine, valjean, or cosette. but be honest with ourselves—we’re all the thenardiers.
