I’m going on strike because:
- it might rain today
- I’m out of seamless underwear
- that’s it for now. That’s enough reasons.

Not well enough to submit to lit journals, or edit one. But I’d love to oversee / guide an issue on illness, chronic / long illness, and healthcare spaces. I have ideas.

Quite disappointed of such little coverage on the experiences of students relying on student aid BC funding right now.
Earlier this week, Student Aid went on strike, and everything including upcoming payments, appeals, and funding evaluations have been halted.

Auto-theory comes up in an English department meeting and the white tenured male prof turns to everyone and says, “what is auto-theory? I bet it has nothing to do with cars.”

The most annoying emails I get are by far from my bank telling me my account is “below threshold.” Like just because I’m poor and like blue lipstick from Sephora doesn’t mean you have to remind me so frequently.
