As promised, the story of 2024. It begins in December 2023, when, after an ice storm, the trees of Montreal are covered a beautiful sheen of ice. That morning, I sign off as a committee member on a thesis proposal critiquing environmentalists' overemphasis on trees. (1/)

Did my starter packs today. Disabled writers but no disabled artists and/or musicians? And media studies is bewildering (I am maybe being picky) and there is no Science and Technology Studies starter pack yet. C'est la vie. At least there's a sound studies starter pack.

So this is going to be a thing now for academics? I'll give it another try.

I just got an email with the subject heading “MRF LOI Advanced to Stage 2” and I couldn’t tell if someone was writing me about their cancer or a grant application. (It was the latter.)
