Thank you @caranha 🤗
#PhDone with no corrections!

T-minus 3 days before my #PhD fieldwork kicks off! 10x Wednesdays of GMing a #folklore based, co-created #TTRPG with #homeschool volunteers. I'm excited and terrified all at once!! Exploring #learningthroughplay beyond Early Childhood Education.

Of course, a mere nap after submitting the first draft saw new ideas bubble to the surface about how to improve my writing. I suspect that it's not the power of the Nap (although I'm a fan), but the act of letting go that released the pressure of meeting a deadline and in so doing freeing my mind to start being creative again. Things you learn in #PhDlife 💁‍♂️
@phdlife @phdstudents
Just got to that point where you physically can't look at your writing anymore, and sent draft 1 of my first article (ever) to my supervisors. I've worked the life out of it and am not happy, but I'm dead inside...
@wrench Hey Claus! You well? When's your next stream? I'm aching for some Twitch-joy 

Edging back into the world of the living. Found this between the birds.

5 Drinks to know me:
- Water (lots)
- Coffee (home stock)
- Winter Melon tea (冬瓜茶)
- Bomba Energia (Vida e Caffe)
- Strawberry milkshake (treat)

@researchfairy I'm pretty sure there's a "niche" lord of the rings adult title somewhere out there for Tulkas?
Is it just me, or is existing really rather a lot lately?
@caranha I finished it for no good reason whatsoever 😅 It's incredibly bad. Imagine taking every heavy metal lyric, title and name in existence down on a notepad and throwing it at a 90's roadie whose only exposure to anime is hentai. As anti-art(?) it's a car crash in a teaspoon; too terrible to look away. Stupid, sexist and shallow – but to such a massive degree that it must have been intentional, right?
