I love studying. I love Cesaire and Fanon and Said. Actually I love studying because these legends exist and come alive in my pages

Why is waking up in the morning so traumatic? Like why can't I just keep sleeping?

Unfortunately I do look like a deer. Unfortunately my eyelashes at the end do droop downwards like a deer's.

I feel so bad for landlocked countries. Must feel so claustrophobic.

Sorry but killing and eating animals is just cruel no 2 ways about it. "Part of the food chain xyz" no it's part of human hubris.

Who do I contact at All Saints to tell them I'm enough pretty with fairly strange features and an extraordinary ability to get very skinny very fast if they are looking for a model

If I catch you wearing faux leather, we will never speak again, as policy

Sad because I'm 26 years old now

Girl PhD

Everyone's trying to be Hozier with the literature and mythology references but some know there is only one original

Propaganda I'm not falling for:
1. Injectables
2. And other needless cosmetic procedures

However Let Down is okay. 👍

Remembering that time when I tried so very hard to like Radiohead but it was just so bad

I have no desire to turn 26

Need an Oracle of Delphi in my life

When they say you need to blend your blush but you already blended it <<<

Resident olive toned baddie at the PhD offices 🏢 🫒

Nobody:
My mind 24/7: The name is Mamdani M-A-M-D-A-N-I (I live in Europe) (I actually live on Tiktok which is probably not besides the point)

I could survive anything if they gave me enough teaching so I don't stop till I drop.

Turning 26 this month and it may as well be 30. ⚰️

Hello long time no see

I should have become a surgeon. Neuro would have been great. Failing that, oncology.

Unfortunately for a really banger piece of philosophical work, the entire cannon does sometimes need to be rewritten (Giorgio Agamben)

Marx was literally so dramatic and for what

the phrase 'not least' makes no sense to me. If you want to mean 'in particular' then say that! Why say not least when you mean particularly! (signed, someone who will occasionally use not least because other phrases have been used too much in the same piece)

I do sometimes love my life.

Forever sympathetic to the Meredith Greys of this world. No one will ever understand her like I do

I didn't understand what academics had to procrastinate about until the 2nd year of my PhD

I love Michel Foucault so damn much

Propaganda I'm not falling for:

The reformulated and repackaged Isamaya eyeshadow palettes
