Please feel most free to read my first, very seasonal and topical, Substack post. The link to my Substack is in my bio, which feels like a supremely douchey thing to say but is none the less true! Enjoy! Share with friends (or foes, whatever)

If you ever read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in school, you NEED to read this graphic novel. The storytelling is amazing, the art is stunning, the history is accurate, and it should, in my humble opinion, be required reading along with Huck Finn.

Please understand that Bird's Nest Roy is my new favorite character in Disco Elysium, because the idea of a storybook character/place being an ontological necessity is exactly the kind of absurdist academia humor I show up to the party for.

Heading out to Big Lick ComicCon NOVA today to make some noise about my dissertation study. Stay amazing!

It definitely took some doing there towards the end, but I have completed the Edward Gorey's Dracula in Dr. Seward's Library black & white puzzle. Please feel free to continue to leave me in relative peace, I sent in a job application earlier today that I worked on for hours.

We're doing great, by the way. Just slowly losing my mind as the pieces come together

I have been informed that I need to "drink water" and "eat a meal," so I guess I'll pause this for now

I'm handling things, generally speaking, VERY well, actually. (Nobody speak to me for the next several hours thnx)

Despite the sheer, unfettered chaos and exhaustion that was this last week, I had a truly delightful time at @pcaaca.bsky.social and am so grateful for the experience, as always. 💚🩵🩷💛

Some people understand that even shitty childhoods have shining, happy moments, worth remembering and celebrating. Like playing Monkey Ball on the GameCube with your older brother and actually being good at it.

Anyway, @pathos-2.bsky.social made me cry yesterday when he gifted me this. He's a gem.

Are you trans and/or nonbinary?
Do you cosplay?
Do you know anyone who fits that criteria?
Won't you help a poor PhD student out?

Please take my survey!! (Or share it. With everyone you know. Please.)

If anyone tells me, ever again, that the 50s were some kind of idyllic time in American history, I'm going to direct them straight to my esteemed and terrifying friend in this 1956 community cookbook who thought the 2.5+ bottles of hard liquor needed the addition of THREE QUARTS of champagne.

I thought about this sandwich from the time I left my Mama's house on Thursday to the time I got back there on Sunday. It was divine.

To start things off right:

I just want everyone to know that if I had a platform upon which to interview only ONE famous person, it would be Mr. Perrineau, I'd ask him this one question, thank him for his time, and end the interview.
