academia

can we have some half-assed academia please, for those of us who want to do the bare minimum

handwriting legible only to the writer, but not in that mysterious calligraphy way, we’re talking kindergartner script

oversized hoodies, sweatpants, leggings, that one t-shirt you got during orientation, buns, braids, hairbands, bandanas, I just want my hair out of my face

all readings are pdfs, all highlighting is done in that ugly ass mustard yellow default Preview highlighter color

post-its literally fucking everywhere—on books, printouts, walls, windows, computer, etc. layered on top of each other because you keep adding to your hoard.

assignments submitted with less than a minute to go

“I haven’t started that yet lmao”

and yet, surprisingly okay GPA because procrastination is expected as well as accounted for

“Dear Professor So-and-So, I hope you are doing well. Unfortunately, I have been struggling with the latest assignment and will not be able to finish it on time. Would it be possible to get an extension? Thank you.“

Keurig/pod/instant coffee because you gotta get your caffeine somehow

cereal at midnight

“bold of you to assume i did the homework”

what do you mean color coding, all notes will be done with my trusty Zebra Sarasa Dry X20 0.7 because I got a twelve-pack from Amazon and it dries quickly and I killed my eyesight through childhood late-night reading so I require BIG BOLD LETTERS and I don’t care if it looks ugly

having too much faith in Quizlet

all the “my last two brain cells” memes

your life gradually deteriorates as the semester/quarter goes on

you walk out of your final exam content with the blissful sense of another class successfully bullshitted

- 17th May 2020 -

I’ve spent the day reading Audre Lorde essays and editing my political science essay - a pretty good day!

I’ve finished all of my lectures and seminars for the term, so I just have my final essays that I am working on in the mean time. I also applied for a summer research job at my university a few days ago, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for that!

If you are outside India, I am practically begging you to reblog this

Last week India passed a blatantly anti-Muslim law that seeks to naturalise millions of immigrants, except if they are Muslims.

In August of this year, India revoked the autonomous status of the Kashmir region, putting a communication blackout on the state. Kashmir has entered the fifth month of no internet and heaviest militarisation of any region in the world.

India is a secular, socialist republic. This bill is anti-constitutional and against the principles on which the country was founded

Naturally, there have been protests across the country. At the forefront of the protests are students from India's public universities.

Police opened fire on peaceful protestors in Jamia Milia Islamia University in Delhi, and Aligarh Muslim University in Uttar Pradesh.

Ever since then, the ruling fascist Hindu nationalist political party, the BJP, has been doctoring videos and sending fake news all over the internet, discrediting protestors and labelling them as terrorists

India has already seen too much religious violence, please please signal boost this, call your representatives, make them aware, get them to make statements. The only thing India and its dictator Modi care about is its image abroad

black people, please take care of yourselves. please take care of your health. please take care of your mind. please take care of your spirit.

i understand if your soul is not at peace. i understand if you are exhausted. just, please take care of yourselves in these dark, hateful times and surround yourself with people who understand why.

These were all murders. They were not accidental. All of these innocent people: men, women AND children. Were murdered because they were black. Not because they were violent. Not because they were threatening, but because they were black. Something has to change. We have to MAKE a change. Black lives matter. Black men. Black women. Black children. Non-Binary blacks. Trans blacks. Every single one of their lives matter. Your friends. Your neighbors. Your teachers. Your brothers. Your sisters. We are the change.

Cops murdered a black girl in Toronto this week too but Canadians are too up their own asses about how we’re “Not the racist ones! That’s only America! We’re the nice ones :)” to acknowledge it or do anything about it
