Need advice: how does one survive writing their PhD thesis without burning the fuck out

A lot of people shocked that there's not consensus over the salute must not know that this is what racism usually feels like

Still didn’t finish it but love coming back to it every 3-4 months

No, we’re from Haiti where cassettes were ubiquitous + she started her collection in the 80s when 8-tracks started to decline elsewhere. I had actually never heard of them until moving to the US!
Forever grateful for my mom’s vinyl and cassette collection 🙏🏾
Idk what they put in Balatro but that game is dangerous for my thesis writing 👀
It’s ok, we can’t all appreciate the same things
Ayt it's time I properly introduced myself on here:
I'm a Haitian civil/environmental engineer and researcher. I work on coastal resilience and climate adaptation in the Caribbean. I am into video games, art and houseplants!
Expect me to yap about the climate crisis, urbanism and strategy games!
The bass and rhythms just speak to my soul man
