Verbal Train Wreck

Some things are just meant to be between you and some 7 billion internet strangers.

we need to bring back old school tumblr communication and im so serious. sending an ask to a mutual just to say hello. seeing three different asks in your inbox all asking how your dentist appointment went. seeing a post you think one of your mutuals would enjoy and tagging them/sending it to them in the dms. nowadays its just silently liking a post or (if youre feeling extreme) replying under posts. WHAT HAPPENED TO US!! we used to be a proper community!!!! #LetsBringWhimsyBack

I don't even do outlines anymore, but this still happens. Planning means nothing; never has.

Dark Academia & Studyblr are One

The latest installment of The Scholar is something we’re all familiar with: Dark Academia. Around the time of the pandemic, Dark Academia experienced a resurgence and made its way out of Tumblr and into the mainstream of TikTok and Instagram. Since then, it has become everything from a genre category to fashion and home decor. But there are still a few of us who remember when DA sprouted from studyblr, when the aesthetic centered around learning—doing and not performing. I’ve created this series to explore how the aesthetic has changed over time and to counter some of its common critiques. Part One of course returns to its beloved roots in this hellsite :)

Phd Ponderings: On Summer Anxiety, Uncertainty, and New Beginnings

As a lifelong student, the winter blues don’t often hit me as hard as summer anxiety does. But every student I’ve ever met has struggled with some combination of anxiety, depression, and/or burn out. As an incoming phd student, the fifth installment of The Scholar is thus a short meditation on my own struggles with anxiety during one of the brightest seasons of the year. Give it a gentle read if you’d like and if you’re like me, I hope you know it gets better.
