The fact that in expected to respond to emails sent to me at all hours of the day/night/weekend is absurd to me

being able to answer emails and messages from my phone while i’m out at the gym or running errands is the ultimate luxury in corporate hell, if i’m being honest

Am I the only one not watching Severance? Today is the third time that someone has made a reference to it mid-conversation, and I’m the only one in the convo who knows nothing about that show

A friend just took me out to dinner for my (belated) birthday. We went to Daiso after, and I just have to say, Japan has some bomb ass snacks!

I'm so sick of how unserious this University is. Why is one of the student body presidential candidates running under the "Deez Nuts! Ha! Got 'em!" party? What the fuck? And the annoying part is, they'll still probably get a bunch of votes

They just installed a bunch of new shades in our lab, and got rid of the old blinds, and now the whole lab smells like they just opened a bunch of brand new inflatable pool floaties. It’s the exact same specific rubbery smell.

Things like this are why I can’t root for everyone Black. Too many ppl just wanna recreate the exact same systems of oppression we fight against but with cishet Black folks at the top of the hierarchy.
