Ohhhh I hope I can see Santiano live in November, I hope hope hope. And see my best friend twice in a year. That'd really rule

Mmmmm genuinely is it worth it to get an online grad degree or will basically nobody take it seriously? Cuz that's my least financially ruinous option to be able to learn more.

Watching this Azerbaijani show called "Biz" ("we") and it's really hard to find info about a TV show that's named after a pronoun.

I really hope this does not embolden the admin to attack Iran next. US attacking anywhere is really egregious and terrible + should be opposed, but there are a lot of people I know who are either in Iran or have family there, and my heart will ache so much on a deeply personal level for them.

Sorry I know terrible things are happening and I'm indeed upset about them, but on a personal level I am going to meet my best friend of 10 years in person for the first time in 2 weeks.
