the main thing you learn as you go further through certain streams of academia is how fine the line dividing you and the People Who Know Things actually is, and this is especially true once you start engaging or working with academic publishing or being friends with people doing different parts of that process, which is where working in academia-adjacent jobs can fast track you without having to be an academic yourself

i've hit the age now where my friends who are younger than me are EDITING the academic volumes. not even CONTRIBUTING to them. talk about seeing how the sausage is made

The hero, the leader, heartbeat so strong your sleep shall not last for long wake up, they say, their hands cold against your skin wake up, they say, and let the war begin

The architect who faces the fall their mind twisted against them all play the part and into thrall or turn and answer freedoms call

Doctor doctor give yourself a sign tell yourself that youll be fine keep a hold on your emotions and dont let it slip the scalpel in your hand is beginning to drip

The double-edged blade cuts both ways the past and the future, the end of days split the timeline, escape the maze and pray they won't fall in the monster's haze

WHICH  RAGE  LANGUAGE  ARE  YOU?

———THE  REGINA  GORGE.

someone hurts you or pisses you off,  & you don't do anything.     at first.     but you hold that feeling of rage in your chest for weeks after the fact,  acting nice but silently hating their guts,  pretending like all is forgiven until you can ruin their life & hurt them the way they hurt you.     it's calculated.     but  when  you've  executed  your  revenge,   will  you  be  satisfied?
