Hi, Epstein did not create the GCs. Researchers for the last ten years have been telling you over and over about the collection of forces that resulted in the GCs. There is no conspiracy. Just a bunch of political actors collaborating in their mutual interest.

Has there been some kind of #PokemomTCGPocket update where the card I pull from my deck is less likely to be a pokemon? I'm struggling to beat the step up battles because I lose instantly with only my basic pokemon out and a hand of supporters.

The funniest part of being on fellowship is that when I get a job (if I get a job) ((if I am ever employed again)) they're gonna stick me in a classroom and I am going to have forgotten how to teach

One tired-ass almost-doctor

Current update: 82,699 words *plus* one very excellent Microsoft paint visualization.

Confidently assured almost half a dozen people I would be finishing a draft of my dissertation today. I am currently illustrating it instead of writing it.

Wish me luck.

82,103.

Want to keep coming up with more diverse examples of conspiracy theories, but I keep going back to vaccines every time.

I WILL work in a mention of pseudo-archaeology and ancient aliens somewhere in this diss!! I also want to fit in frogs are gay, FEMA, and of course birds aren't real.
January 25, 2026 at 6:28 AM
I forgot to update for a couple days, but we are at 81,742 words currently.

One or maybe two good writing sessions should do it.

Here's what imposter syndrome is like:

- I got an interview request
-I responded selecting a time for the interview
- I shortly received a response and IMMEDIATELY assumed before I could even open it that they would be letting me know the request was in error and I am not worth interviewing

What's the chance any of the people in my phone know how to replace the belt of a suitcase model record player?My records are playing very slightly slow and I am BIG intimidated.

And what are we supposed to do about that? How does is knowing y'all hate us help us or you? What are we getting out of this except resentment and discord?

I'm not even saying don't hate us.

I just don't know what you want us to fucking do about it?!

"Discredit"/"Discreditable" is ALSO DIFFERENT and imply a third, different meaning to "discredibility."

Acreditability? Miscredibility? Malcredibility? Anticredibility? Countercredibility? Noncredibility?

I AM LOSING MY SHIT, HOW IS THERE NOT A WORD FOR THIS.
January 21, 2026 at 5:00 AM
Why the fuck is "incredible" not the opposite of "credible."

"You're incredible" DOES NOT MEAN "you lack credibility established through mutually agreed upon metrics" and UNCREDIBLE IS NOT A THING.

AAAHHHHHHHH !!!!!!

If only I knew a rhetoric scholar who could remedy this via neologism. Alas!!!

I'm fully just making up terms and using them with reckless abandon. What do those words mean? I cited some guy (gender neutral) about it, but I may or may not be the first one to use them in that order.

Chapter 1 is two pages from being DONE.

The hardest part of getting a PhD has been registering for credit/research hours every semester.

Picking an advisor was second, and writing the dissertation is definitely not in the top 5, maybe top 10.

I thought binary men and women queers had finally learned this, but this is your regular and very tired reminder that "they/them" is not a fucking gender :)

78,276 words total. Possibly the most I've ever written of anything in one day. A draft is imminently close. Keep your eyes on this space. We're fucking doing it. We're doing the thing.
