Since Utah celebrates Pioneer Day tomorrow, here is an actual conversation:

Mormon: I wonder what the land (Utah) looked like when the Pioneers came.

Me: You can ask the Native Americans.

You are more than welcome. I was happy to catch the link after randomly coming back on BlueSky.

Also, don’t forget that the entire spring semester was rough mentally. I was constantly worried about getting laid off, and watched the dismantling of the organizations I was in school training to work for. I constantly had to push through the “what’s the point anymore” mindset and it was so hard.

My grad school cohort is one of the worst cohorts and while I don’t blame the professors for disliking us since the quality of our work/effort is poor, I’m also giving myself all the grace because I’ve been literally working full time alongside full time grad school.

The past year has been actually insane and I finally feel like I’m in a bigger/better headspace to ease back into the (internet) world.

Hello.

This looks like a dream.

I am way too uninterested in work today. I'm having very domestic fantasies. I wanna be at home crafting

My win today is going to lab early and starting on the most complicated station so that my lab partner and I aren’t waiting for other groups to work out the kinks of the station. We took our time and got finished early.

For school, we have this collaborative project involving 4 different universities and 3 different time zones and it has been chaotic to actually get stuff done.

I Will Find You - saw this recommendation on tiktok and it looked interesting to me!

This is The Way.

Ok but the butterflies and stars on here are very pretty.

Among other things, sitting in traffic for an hour after a 3 hour Biostats lecture every Friday is slowly taking away my sanity.

Dark Matter on Apple TV

i am nothing but uncreative 😅

HI KATE!!!!!!!! i’m going to try and do my homework early in the day instead of doom-panicking at midnight because it’s due tomorrow

another option: you can squeeze in a silly little christmas novella so you don’t feel pressured to finish W&P and can enjoy it at your own pace 😅

this sounds like it would be perfect for when my lips get extremely dry

tell me more about the lanolin for lips

oooof i’m sorry friend

i felt this on a personal level. except the showering and working out part lol

(poor joke, i know)
