So it’s definitely time to start looking at international PhD programs, right?
Because as a perspective, PhD student seeing so many admission cycles getting canceled due to funding, I don’t have a lot of confidence in the US

My disgust at seeing prominent climate activists on this app saying “let LA burn” when so many people’s lives are at stake right now. This is why I steer clear of mainstream climate activism and environmentalism. Save lives first, then discuss everything else. (Not amplifying them by quoting…)

A few months ago I went to a presentation of PhD research that focused on urban heat exposure on the London tube with the end goal of identifying which lines are too priority for air conditioning by tfl and I swear this topic required my brain

Cities feel alive when streets belong to people, not cars. Clean air, lively spaces, and real community vibes are the way forward.

Reading about evolution of the LA Port and how the city attorneys office blocked investigation into health issues caused by port air pollution for 7 years for fear of litigation against the city
So many people ended up with asthma or cancer and a host of other issues bc of that

Ok so as an LA native who doesn’t know a ton about its municipal history, I’ve been reading The Making of Modern Los Angeles by Nick Patsaouras and the second chapter is a crash course in all the major events of the 20th/21st centuries 🤯

I’m not sure I’m making any concrete “resolutions” this year, but I’m continuing to build out the life I want and I’m starting to think that includes learning French!
I studied for years in school and it took me a long time to love it, but I do, and I don’t want what little I did learn to fade

So I’m reading this book and there are so many things I didn’t know about LA history I’m SHOCKED
Is this a safe space??
I didn’t know RFK was shot in LA 😳
In my defense, presidential stuff has always felt like “white peoples history” but still

During the holidays I’m especially jealous of people in cities with bette transit because driving 50 blocks south to eat dinner should not involve bumper to bumper traffic and intense honking
I miss London/SF so much sometimes. The ease of just getting on the bus and going

Another thing I’m a little fatigued with over here is that there are so many trends/challenges going around the #booksky community instead of organic discussion. Every post is “20 books for 20 days” and that’s so boring
