I added a Thanksgiving twist to a classic “gün” spread: apple crumble pie, cornmeal muffins, carrot & yoghurt dip (havuç tarator), potato salad, red pepper mezze and “kısır”.

i am determined to make this gardening indoors thing work. My kumquats are getting there, and the peppers I sprouted from grocery shop pepper seeds are insanely productive. There will be salads 🤤🧙‍♀️🌸

Had a radical haircut the other day, and increased my karma points by donating the hair. I feel like I can survive summer now ❄️🫠🔪

I realized I never posted the end result. Here’s the finished & blocked product! (It was too hot by the time I was done with it, unfortunately :/)

Just to give an idea... 4 reviewers accepted out of 37. Also, the day I submitted a review to another journal, review #2 was submitted. #reviewkarma #maythereviewergodsbeinyourfavor

Finally managed to grow parsley from a seed + its sisters from a lemon (and I think an apple) are thriving 🧿. Wish me luck (and plenty of delicious upgraded salads!)

Consciousness is also temporally organized, but its more subjective “timescales”. Its messed up in depression (too slow) and its nonexistent in AI, which is one of the reasons they don’t have consciousness.

I did accept a revision request, but still not a peep from the reviewer gods... This cannot be normal... #25to0andgoingstrong

I promise I will not anger review gods again by suggesting it’s exploitation 😅 #15to0andgoingstrong

They have arrested our presidential candidate, @ekremimamoglu.com and now
elonmusk has banned his Twitter account with almost 10 million followers. We will be his voice until he is free.

I did totally unravel the previous sweater, and knitted a v-neck raglan sweater instead! I now have a new obsession… #knittersky

I simply should not have access to this information, I can’t focus on anything else now 🔪😤😓

Sweater update: I’m almost done with the body!

The end results! They were delicious, would recommend this as a procrastination task for sure 🤤

I was missing NYC bagels, so I am attempting to bake some! Just like the manuscript I’m procrastinating on, they need to rest in the fridge overnight… #canteditwontedit #academicsky

It was too big, and i decided i want a v neck instead… So I unraveled it all and started a smaller v neck raglan! I want to finish it before winter is over #challengeaccepted

Here’s the update on the sweater: it now has arms!

Made this quince dessert, a winter staple in turkish cuisine. You cook quinces with its seeds, sugar, cinnamon, star anise and cloves. Not pictured here is how you eat it, with a dollop of clotted cream- it smelled divine and i inhaled it… #cravings

Also, the grading bleargh in the academic timeline reminds me that this is the first time in 6 years that I haven't taught... and graded. I must say it feels like a hard earned sabbatical, but I wish fortitude on everyone who is staring bleakly at a pile of submissions
