Just my daily mid-day wave of anxiety when I can’t remember if I took my various antidepressants this morning

one of the joys of adulthood is watching all your friends realize they can just adopt a cat. nothing is stopping them. and then they do that. and upload a million pictures of it.

Deleting social media from my phone just leads to compulsively refreshing my email instead 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thankfully my professors have made that quite clear: encouraging it, giving us pre-highlighted readings, and even sending us an article about this called “Sink or Skim.” ⬇️

Professors who teach graduate classes (at least in music) make it very clear to (often overachieving) grad students that skimming the readings is not only okay but actually needed and encouraged!

It’s an important skill and perhaps the only way to manage the workload.

Not my primary professor in my doctorate telling me “you need to care less” when I’ve been professionally Caring A Lot for over 26 years

Just me, not taking my antidepressants with breakfast and then wondering why I’m mopey by 2pm

i’m so tired of abortion rights being framed around truly tragic circumstances like assault and incest. if you get pregnant & you don’t want to be pregnant, it is your right over your own body that is under siege. no one, including a fetus, can use your body against your consent.

[Andrea Junker @Strandjunker]

I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it a thousand times: The treatment for an ectopic pregnancy, a septic uterus, or a miscarriage that your body won’t release is abortion. If you can’t get those abortions, you die. You. Die.
