Eepy little guy takes on moving out of summer housing and creating a final presentation

(Me. The eepy little guy is me)

This is the kind of music theory we should all be doing.

Anyway I’m a music theorist now.

Sooo meet Hypatia Hildegard

Getting a cat and naming her Hypatia Hildegard because my favorite badass iconic women philosophers

I’m just a little guy (undergrad) with lots of enthusiasm (and an independent research fellowship that I’m doing music theory) and even more fears (what if I’m overrepresenting myself)

When do I start getting to call myself a music theorist instead of a music theory nerd or student or aspiring theorist

Wondering why I’ve had the most impossible time focusing today, only to discover that oh, I forgot my ADHD meds this morning and that’s why

My trans joy recently has just been that I don’t have to think about gender much anymore. I don’t have to imagine chopping my boobs off or having facial hair because both of those things have happened. I can just be at peace with my body. And I can paint my nails and not feel too girly. I just *am*

Trans people deserve to dictate our own lives, futures, and bodies.

Fuck the SCOTUS, fuck transphobia, and leave trans kids alone

Okay well now I want to hear the take!

I love research wow

I’m just sitting here in the library reading smart people’s papers and books and having a lovely time wow this is so fun yippee :3

But in reality I’m just crying because I’m bad at my dictations and I can’t sing my octotonic scale very well

I’m a huge fan of people thinking that when I would say that I’m stressed about my aural skills class, they thought I said “oral skills”. Really makes college seem more like the gay propaganda machine that right wingers say it is

Watching people who previously lived without AI suddenly depend on it is devastating. Devaluing the importance of humanity is devastating. Human intelligence is necessary. Critical thinking and analysis is necessary. Just because something can do something doesn’t mean it should.

I don’t want to have a REAL JOB. just let me research my silly little dead people nerd music and expect nothing from me in peace 😔

Blep

Just had the most unhinged dinner of a whole steak tomato eaten like an apple and undercooked, overly buttered pasta

My research fellowship is going great

Shit guys they’re ahead of me, I’m only on C. How will I ever get into grad school at this rate!?

Congrats !!!!!!!!!!

Real because when non music theorists say it its usually in a pretentious “I think im so special and different” way that’s just being argumentative to be argumentative

Many things to do

But I am just oh so sleepy

I long for a nap

Henry is perfect and I would die for him probably

BREAKING:

The opinion of a random person you just encountered online is not, in fact, the universally embraced belief of "the Left" or "Liberals" or whoever else you'd like to paint with a broad brush.

More as this story develops.

This is probably just a small school even smaller music school problem but…

Delving into this platform is great but terrifying because there’s always the chance that I’ll accidentally run across a professor (or they’re run across me) and they may not know it’s me but what if they DID

I’ve resolved to just say random thoughts at a whim here —

I saw a giant white floofy dog on my walk to the pharmacy this morning, and not only that, but I got to PET her

This is a great day
