man I was just thinking how sad it is that I got really into doing muscle anatomy studies after I was no longer in my castlevania phase and this has kept me from drawing infinite trevors.

I think I manifested a videogame

Found an additional graphic that gets even more of these quotes together.

I've kept "I hate myself, I hate clover, and I hate bees" pinned above my desk since I first started studying evolutionary biology as an undergraduate. So relatable to get extremely frustrated with your study system.

Infuriating: my body has decided that it will not sleep for more than six hours but that it DOES still want eight hours sleep but also if I try to sleep more it will make me feel sick all day.

cw: domestic abuse, ice stuff

I know that it's nothing new, that many people who are violent out of the home are violent within it. But 'he ran into a wall' feels like a level of lie that you don't get to without first going through 'kid fell down the stairs' or 'wife opened a door into her face'.

“art” is an anagram of “rat”. think about that before you look at a beautiful painting

When I'm talking to puk about her book it always feels a little weird to be putting words in her characters mouths, so to make it clear that I'm communicating a sentiment rather than exact dialogue I make it sound kind of silly.

'prescription that has been approved' and 'approved prescription' apparently are different things

Delighted by this painting and the story behind it. 1775-era 'commission an artist to draw you and your besties as blorbo from your shows to demonstrate to the world that you are in fact besties'.

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

Gonna try something new! This is going to be a thread for random little studies from this week. Starting with a bird (photo credit in next comment, I’m posting this from ipad and the photo is on my computer).

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA
