Gwynne Michele - The Curious Hermit

That tells me he never took care of his kids when they were sick because Motrin/Ibuprofen is a common fever reducer.

Writing a paper on Kant's Categorical Imperative while a cat sleeps on my left arm.

It's not a bad life.

I started using this a few days ago and I'm already smitten! Added the digital garden plugin to the same vault so I can publish my adventures.

What do you mean you're shocked that the generations who had to be bribed to read with pizza parties don't read as adults?

Have you taken the time to mourn who you were "supposed to be" but never became?

I just saw a video of someone about "clarity maxxing."

It's mindfulness.

They were talking about mindfulness practices.

Baudrillard and the Buddha both just had facepalm moments.

I used to, but not anymore. Now, I just get curious about where I am because I can't be anywhere but there.

Some of the best advice I pick up in life comes from fictional characters.

Oh, hey, that's me!

I highly recommending reading Pedagogy of the Oppressed by Paulo Freire if you're at all interested in figuring out how education can help get us out of the messes we're in today.

Word of the Day:

Meteoropathy - pain caused by changes in the weather.

My leg experiences meteoropathy when storms are coming, making it a more reliable predictor of storms than the forecast since DOGE ravaged NOAA.

some days
the muse is just a sleep-deprived goblin
eating cold noodles in the corner,
and the only thing i can manifest
is another tab I won't read.

I fell off after the Loki series. Everything after just feels like a desperate cash grab.

Looking at my degree plan to see where I'm at towards graduation.

I'll either have to cram some extra credits in the next two semesters or I'll have to take some class next summer, but either way, I'll be graduating in 2026!

30 years after I graduated from high school.

I'll share the gofundme to sponsor reactionary conservatives moving to Russia. Happily. I'm *sure* they'll be more comfortable under Putin's regime than Trump's...

Don’t be the kind of ghoul who is delighted by the death of innocent children in Texas.

That’s Greg Abbott’s thing. Don’t be like Greg Abbott.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Is Kermit a person?

Discuss.

Asexuality isn't about horniness, it's about attraction. I experience no sexual attraction, I'm just horny most of the time, and dtf as long as the partner doesn't turn me off. Which anymore, they all turn me off so I'm basically celibate because I'm also aromantic.

I hope this will lead to less people calling AI "plagiarism machines" but somehow, I don't think the kneejerk anti-AI people are going to think that far.

The people saying the federal judge doesn’t understand copyright law should instead realize that they are the ones who didn’t understand copyright law

Oliver North thinks Iran shouldn't have missiles.

Oliver "convicted for selling missiles to Iran" North.

Natasha Lyonne as Nadia Vulvokov in the TV show Russian Doll. She is gesturing with a lit cigarette and speaking to someone. The caption reads 'Hermeneutical Injustice. What a concept.'

I attended small town 4th of July parades as a kid that had more energy than Trump's birthday parade did.

Season 21 of Grey's Anatomy just dropped on Netflix, so that's what I'm watching this weekend to regulate my emotions while WWIII and Civil War 2.0 pop off.

Because Grey's Anatomy is less of an emotional rollercoaster than reality right now...

The first battles of the Civil War had spectators.

People showed up and sat to watch it.

Vendors sold food for the event.

The new one will be streamed.

The creators will sell merch.

Twilight marked the mainstream turn back towards conservatism.

Pro-life Mormon vampires that enthralled a whole generation of young women.

He probably didn't actually have much to do with it. Many can barely manage a social media post, let alone getting AI to output anything. That White House account is run by a 4chan troll and you can tell.

Writing a paper on perdurantism for metaphysics today.

Fun times.

Just three more weeks and the semester is done. Still debating whether I'm going to take classes summer semester, or drop the classes I'm registered for and take the summer off. Kinda wanna push through and get as many classes in as I can, kinda wanna take a break.
