It kills me to think of all the malnourished kids in poorer countries we stopped feeding so we could give another tax cut to the richest creeps in the entire world. Even the kids who survive might suffer from permanent developmental problems for no reason, just hollow greed and cruelty. It's awful.

Hahahahah! So much no. Stanford sent out a "everything is fine! This is all just a misunderstanding! Proceed as usual and ignore the fuss!" email. It was anything but reassuring.

Also! My friend was briefly fostering some very tiny kittens and these pics always make me smile!

My ridiculous orange boys are very fluffy indeed!

How have you been doing? What are you up to these days?

Yes (ish?), I successfully completed my oral defense. I'm taking a writing quarter now to wrap up my written thesis, try to get an existing group project manuscript revised and back to reviewers, get my solo project manuscript out the door, job search, and apartment hunt! It's going to be chaotic! 😆
