Adriano Celentano canta "Prisencolinensinainciusol" da "Formula due" del 1973
As literally no one else in today's meeting knew what I was talking about when I mentioned this, I share again:

Well, turns out someone did, in 1972.

Just finished Milton Mayer's 1955 book They Thought They Were Free: The Germans 1933-1945. I stumbled onto it on the Libby app, having never heard of it. I was not disappointed. Highly recommend for anyone trying to understand how we got to this moment in the US. The parallels are eerie. 1/2

But will I at least also find a stable job that allows me to pursue my research? Also no.
But will I at least be happy doing what I like? Hahaha also no.
