me puttingon the filters "remote" and "data science major" on this job site from my university and just scrolling thru and applying to a ton that don't need cover letter without reading the qualifications/requirements 😀

What if Jeeves had worked as a page boy at a private boys' school in his youth?

Shoutout to all the kids who were just too fucking tired to live up to their "potential"

Just watched Black Friday by Starkid, and now I'm wondering which Fear this would be a manifestation of. (I think Extinction would probably be in there, but what else?)

Actually, what would *all* the starkid productions be?

Nerdy Prudes Must Die would have at least a bit of Hunt... The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals would have some Corruption...

there's something so surreal about a professor pointing at you and saying you know more about a topic than he does. not just to other students but also to other professors

this is relevant to this blog because the topic in question was mythology, ancient religion and the gods

it's like a decade+ later but i really am convinced that my queer lit professor had a crush on me in undergrad and really, fuck me for not realizing i was bi earlier bc i would have pounced on that.

oh we are in full sobbing range folks. we are floods of tears not getting words out

me having gone to bed at 6 am every day for the past week and generally spiraling mentally while rotting in bed waking up this morning: a 4 mile hike in the heat is a really good idea right now, and while we're at it let's start like 3 art projects

...

got my results from my uni finals back and i feel like i’m about to pass out??

yes it's just me whining about the same thing for the billionth time, pls just scroll past nothing new to see here 👋

vent incoming:

got my grades back for my courses last semester and most of it was to be expected, mostly A's, maybe an A-, etc. but i honestly can't get over the fact that my independent study (the buddy cole documentary) was for some reason given a B. like sure getting a B isn't bad per se, I usually get at least one B every semester and i honestly don't really care about what my exact gpa is as long as i can graduate, but come on. this school put me through months of psychological torment over this project and didn't even have the nerve to give me a B+??? i'm still coping with the self-doubt they forced on me and this bullshit is not helping!!

The ML fandom survey is officially closed! 🎉🎉🎉

Thank you all so much for participating, spreading the word around, and writing your hearts out in the answers!

I could never have imagined i'd have this many people answering my survey (974!!!! I was starting to get overwhelmed lol), so thank you all so much for giving me more than enough to use on my research!!

I'll try to share the results once the semester is done and this article is approved, but until then I think I'll stay a bit absent from here. Wish me luck!

And once more,

not to be like “i miss college” even though i do but mostly i think i miss being smart. before depression and life events had chewed up and partially swallowed my brain. just getting to problem solve and think, being Very Into something as the norm. i know being an english major is basically the easiest thing you can be at the undergrad level but i do feel like that was the one and only time in my life where my natural state was actually a pro instead of a con. i graduated with the highest honors and absolutely no one cared but i cared

going from literally not being able to handle school and hating myself for setting myself up for failure these past two years to submitting stuff on time and actually putting in the effort this semester feels so surreal, I genuinely forgot I could do it.
