soup season

ask your doctor if committing to the bit is right for you

I wish the Covid vaccine would give me 5G so I could finally have cell signal in my rheumatologist’s office

wiped out on an uneven sidewalk today and somehow my earbuds stayed in the whole time

evil forces (English department event calendar) are conspiring to keep my research advisor and me from meeting 😔

although tbh every season is soup season

A pot of loaded potato soup

September means it’s soup season, my favorite time of year

ngl I’m pretty proud of myself for maintaining my daily writing the same day as my surgery (in the evening after I got to my hospital room and everything) and the following day too

When the 8-10 page paper is a full 11 and you haven’t even gotten around to adding images or more detail 😔

they’re just giving away free books at this conference. between penguin and norton, I’ve already gotten 4 🤯

I want to write more poems about birds

Screenshot of a CNN broadcast of an image of penguins with the line "Trump slaps 10% tariff on island with no people, only penguins."

What’s next, tariffs on Pluto?

Thank you!! Trying my best to finish the first year of my PhD strong

I have a reception on the 11th and finals coming up 😭😭

Booker makes a stand against Trump – and doesn’t stop for 25 hours

"Booker made a persuasive case that an inability to do everything should not undermine an attempt to do something," writes the Guardian's Washington DC bureau chief David Smith. Booker's 25-hour speech "was a primal scream of resistance."

Trans and nonbinary people are essential to the movement for sexual and reproductive health and rights.

They should be free to live authentically — with dignity and respect. Trans and nonbinary communities deserve that and more. 💞🏳️‍⚧️ #TransDayofVisibility #TDOV #ImForPP
