it pains me to notice that i haven't been updating my beautiful
followers on pokeheroes on my bestie (polisci prof) ventures... on
thursday he told me to watch a little film screening (student-made
short films!) because he acted in one of them. went to watch. it
was amazing. of course i also made sure to extend my praise to the
film crew. i would have hung out with them all afterwards, but,
unfortunately, i can't drive in the dark and it was getting pretty
late. regardless it was a great experience
i finished that paper (he extended the deadline to tonight)
i have a whole research paper on chinese-pakistani relations due on
the 8th and yet i havent started. such is the mind of the genius
Congratulations! A shiny Fletchling hatched out of one of your eggs
(Chain #155)! Your PokéRadar reset and needs new batteries.
birdbros we are so up
i love it when my friends start telling me situations and preface
it with "dont tell anyone else," because then i can flex my comedy
muscles and go "but i can tell my bestie (polsci prof) right?"
hilarious every time.

Starting my second Fletchling shiny hunt. Warm my egg. Can't
promise I'll warm yours back, but find some kindness in your heart

so preoccupied with my friendship quest i cant think of anything.
im so sorry
i suppose i should say this here, too, since i made a feed about a
month ago asking if my bestie (polsci prof) clocked me as autistic.
well, i went up to his office today to talk to him about an
experience i had this monday which reminded me of something that
happened in his class semester—something about my professors
immediately clocking that im nervous about presentations—so i ask
him, "is there something about me?" and he tells me, mind you
without me bringing up the subject of autism around him ever, that
he'd always thought that i was on the spectrum. i told him i'd
always suspected that i am autistic and he said something along the
lines of "i mean, i have adhd, so i sensed some neurodivergence in
you." this is great.
despite the fact that im majoring in international studies, i
actually have no real force within me to change anything in this
world. my ideal future is one where we return to hunter-gatherer
societies, or at least to bartering, but economists think that this
is "less effective" than using money or keeping up the global
capitalist system. free trade is beneficial to all, according to
them. and who's going to listen to me over an economist?
showing oomf the gay bolshevik texts
yesterday i ate all the leftovers of the biscoff cheesecake that my
mom made and, ever since, i've been reeling with the consequences
of eating something so dense with cream and cheese. do not let your
greed get you into such tragic affairs—always live a life led by
moderation when it comes to these things.
today while sitting upstairs i was contemplating whether i should
visit my bestie's (polsci prof) office or not, and for once in my
life, i thought to myself, "why dont i eenie-meenie-miney-mo it?"
and so i did. i designated one thumb for "yes" and the other "no,"
and, in the end, i left it in the hands of fate—landed on "yes,"
almost doubted myself, but then decided it must be a Ramadan
miracle, and made my way to his office. i always check first if his
curtains are drawn or not, and they were, so it was safe to knock,
except when i did, i didnt get an answer...but, somehow, i suppose
i didnt want to give up. i shuffled my way to the window and he
noticed me and, fortunately, seemed free enough to happily wave
& invite me in. indeed, i should always trust in Allah's plan
for me.
been getting a lot of cramps recently and, honestly, i blame the
sykes-picot agreement
now that im exempt from fasting for the next week or so, i should
go to the bestie's (my polsci prof) office and show him this
showstopping thing... see, i got a video on my fyp a while ago of
someone painting birthdays and, though i was really close to
scrolling, i decided to see if they maybe had done his birthday
too. Lo and behold—December 26 was in fact included; what are the
chances? Anyway, it's a really pretty painting so i decided he
needed to see it too, lol. hopefully i can actually stop by soon
you know, at first, i was somewhat worried that my style of prose
is a bit too dreamy—getting a little bit too close to the
ramble-zone and burdening the reader with unnecessarily long
tangents. then i started reading Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime &
Punishment and i realized there's nothing for me to worry about,
really
learning russian right now (before you comment "?" it has nothing
to do with the fact that my bestie (polsci prof) is russian. uh.
trust me) this stuff is difficult. i havent gotten to any grammar
or sentence structure yet, just memorizing words is pretty onerous.
im getting better at reading cyrillic script quickly though
Happy birthday to my older brother, who keeps coming into my room
just to throw plush toys at me & "test my reflexes." I can say
I'm better at catching things now
my bestie (polsci prof) introduced me to his sister today &
asked me if they looked alike. happy to report that they do, to a
scary degree, maybe
told my prof (and bestie) that ive been keeping track of when he
said his sibling would visit & bro jus said "youre funny" in
such a tone ,. did he just clock me as autistic or what
