I’m feeling sad that I no longer have a group of internet strangers who care about what I did on my dissertation yesterday. They would have been very proud of me right now

Callout for artists - we are putting together a new underground printing of this "manual" to give out and sell for cheap for the resistance. I am looking for any artists that would like to add (donate) illustrations or diagrams to give it a zine feel. Reach out. #simplesab

Just a reminder that I have a survey on fandom (and how/why you participate in it) for my dissertation and it would mean a lot to me if you took it: marquette.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Fiance reports that ICE trying to board a bus in Seattle were refused by a Seattle bus driver who told them "gargle my balls"

@greatesttrek.bsky.social @benjaminahr.mobi Voting for team Phlox is a hunk, except for when he does the CGI smile. That feels like body horror to me. (But also, you've seen a snippet of my reading list, so maybe my opinion shouldn't count for much... )

The primary function of a hot glue gun is burning off your fingerprints so that you can do crime. Sticking things to other things is just an added bonus

The word on the street is that TikTok is back up and… I’m not sure I want it? I feel like, at a minimum, a few weeks off would do me some good

I know it’s kind of cheesy, but keeping a gratitude journal will do a lot for your mental heath in the coming years. Doesn’t have to be fancy or involved, just write down a few good things in your life, no matter how small. It’s backed by science. And as an added bonus, you’ll be safe from Jigsaw

“WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DONT NEED A VIDEO OF ME THIS MORNING????”

TikTok has been extremely helpful in getting my dissertation done, both in terms of the community I've formed there to help me stay motivated, and in terms of getting responses to first my exhibition and now my survey. Nowhere else has compared. Not sure how I can use this space in a similar way...

We joke about it every day. “Don’t put chicken stock in the tea.” (Alternately, don’t put oat milk in the stew.) Today, I finally did it. It was just a splash. Less than a tablespoon, I’m sure. I threw some oat milk on top. How bad can it actually be?

What if, instead of doing anything today, I just slept for 24 hours? I genuinely cannot remember the last time I was this tired and I can’t even think of a good reason why I feel that way. I got about 7 hrs of sleep last night—which isn’t perfect but also isn’t terrible 😢 😴 ☠️

If you’re someone I actually know and I should be following you back, but I’m not, please let me know. I am old and confused

Days like today are extra hard, because I don’t know why my brain won’t function. Is the CPTSD upset because my schedule changed? Is the burnout exhausted? Or is my physical body just not happy because it’s cold af? Each has a different solution, but my ADHD won’t let me try any of them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Screen time limits are for tomorrow Kate. Tonight I’m screen casting TikToks onto my TV and watching them while I eat chili

If you are a fan of anything at all (tv, movies, music, art, books, sports, classic cars, embarrassed podcasters, crafting, cats and more), take my dissertation survey. I'm researching what work fans do and what they get in return. Please also share 💕 marquette.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

We are both rightfully mad at the other for making us go outside when it’s 3°, but only one of us kept us out there longer by shouting at the neighbors and refusing to poop on the side of the road.

Tricking my brain into coming here when I want to mindlessly scroll. People are following me and I don’t know who they are/if I should follow them back. And I don’t know what to talk about 😭

After today I decided I never again want to waste my time arguing with cis gays about why supporting Harry Potter and the Queen of the TERFs is harmful, so I wrote a blog summarizing the whole thing. Please do share it widely instead of wasting yours.
