sometimes i worry when writing like artist statements and that kind of stuff that i sound like a jackass and i think to a certain extent every artist does unfortunately myself included but then i read some others statements and it's like. look i'm decently well read and smart enough, but this shit is totally incomprehensible to the degree where there's no way the artist/writer even knows what they're trying to say. complete word salad

I’m posting this so I have evidence and can’t feel guilty later:
If you’re a grad student and you need to take your weekend off, fucking do it.
Especially,,,, for my colleagues in a goddamn Phd program, like, what a hell scape, please take the weekend off. I told myself for the longest time that I had to just keep working because I couldn’t NOT work over the weekend or I would burst into flames - oh my fucking god !?!?!?!? If you’re looking for a signal that you should just say ‘fuck it’ and take the day for yourself, then fucking do it. PLEASE.
The truth about being in an English PhD program: Everything is awful, no one gives a shit what you do, just ask for an extension, like for the love of GOD, just ask for an extension. Please take the full weekend and go for a long walk in the snow and pet a dog.

January closed her eyes, imagining the entire castle, imagining no castle. The defenses available to Balmoral were not enough against a Master. They could not fight here; they had to hide. A shroud that could not be seen, could not be touched, and could not be dreamed of descended to obfuscate their position. When enemy forces came looking for someone, they’d find no one.

Trickery! Thievery! Treachery! May the liberationist villains be damned for a million, million years!
The long-awaited (at least to me) Chapter 10 of Cupbearer has been posted! Follow the intricate struggle between the Calendar Council and Mr Wines, fought for the Professor. Await the arrival of a delayed, merry ally. Get lost in the grandest dreams. In the darkest hour, where can hope for victory be found?

Tragedy of my life is now that I’m in grad school I constantly realize all the inaccuracies I included in the Antarctica AU and they’re so small and it doesn’t matter but man do I love accuracy I love it so much I watched every documentary on the South Pole and studied floor plans and read peoples daily blogs and YET here we are. Adora I salute u for being maybe the most unhinged astro PhD student ever
