Movies and Shows I Watched in April 2023
School is finally out! April was a meager month of new content for me, as I was studying for finals, presenting, and writing lots of essays. Last month I only read one book, Thick: And Other Essays by Tressie M. Cottom. It is an insightful read from the lens of intersectional black feminism, and though…
Movies & Shows I Watched in March 2023
Another month gone, a new month in its place! This was a lighter month of new content for me, since my schedule is becoming more demanding with work and studying. I was in the mood to watch things I’ve already seen a dozen times before that I didn’t need to pay full attention to– Disney…

Time, Money, Numbers
I want to release my dependence of the constructions of time and value. Too many times I check for the time. I’ve begun the very adult habit of checking my bank account. It’s difficult to say in a way that makes any sense with a little validity, but there is a great misery in depending…
