A trans and/or gender non-confirming person shouldn’t have to masculinize or feminize their name for their pronouns to be respected.

sometimes a book is five stars because it's a masterpiece. sometimes it's five stars because it made my brain release dopamine. both are valid.

I hate when a guy uses the “a green flag about me is” prompt on Bumble and you low-key have to agree with them… Like, damn, you’re right: you NOT wanting to start a podcast is actually a green flag.

biggest immediate upgrade from traveling alone i think is the sense of competence and faith in yourself. life isn't so scary! you can do things! often, whatever you want!

One of my bosses (who’s older than me) asked if we could chat real quick and I did the classic millennial/gen Z cusp thing of asking if I was in trouble for something. 😅😭

3/4 of the way through “Katabasis” and I genuinely think it’s going to become one of the next classic books. 🤩

Made eye contact with a man driving a Mustang (the SUV kind, not the sports car kind) with a “don’t tread on me” sticker and I backed into my parking spot to assert dominance.

My scalp is TENDER from having my hair in a ponytail all day. G*d, please take my pain and give it to every bald/ing man who has ever pissed me off.

I FOUND MY FIRST GRAY HAIR THE REST OF THE DAY IS CANCELLED

I was supposed to be out of the office today but I decided to come in and bank the day for a different day… I should have just taken today off. 😩

No one would use a calculator that's wrong 25% of the time, because then you'd have to manually double check everything, thus killing the point of a calculator. But people still use LLMs.

I have an apartment. :)))

[Alice (She/her) @ablondshell]

Remembering when I used to hope, pray, and dream about being able to find my own apartment AND being annoyed that applying for apartments is highway robbery and a scam.

Let’s go, girls.

I chipped my fingernail, I put my thumb through one leg of my nylons and got a run in the other leg, and there wasn’t any parking near my office building. I don’t think I should have to be at work today.

Saw a girl’s umbrella get blown inside out and a stranger stopped to help her fix it. It’s the small acts of kindness that keep faith in humanity.

Week of conference OOTDs.

[Alice (She/her) @ablondshell]

To whomever scheduled both my conference presentations back-to-back so I can get them out of the way, I hope the other side of your pillow is always cold.
