all class practicum meeting to update our section lead was half about our practicum and mostly about how we are all not quite clear on whether the ongoing fuckery with the government Will Or Won't Make Our Work Literally Impossible or Illegal therefore doom our MASTERS OF LIBRARY SCIENCE DEGREES
that said one of our projects (not mine) now has to change all of their materials because we are not allowed to include mentions of Trans people in the title. bless that project leader shes got work ahead of her, considering this has all happened about three weeks before our poster materials for the final symposium are due.
our already meager job opportunities have been made worse due to public institutions no longer being worth the risk, all of my colleagues are only considering opportunities from private universities right now. And now that IMLS got caught up in that executive order....the special collections people are ALSO fucked (least of all our medical library track people, who have been suffering since january)
our school currently cant tell us exactly what we need to prep for which i get that the situation is weird rn but like. i paid a lot of money to work for this degree and i would FUCKING LIKE TO RECEIVE IT IN MAY ACTUALLY
duke won their stupid ass basketball game
as of rn the heels are losing to ole miss who i just learned are somehow still called the rebels
I need to be allowed to beat the shit out of all of the fucking morons in my program who voted third party or said both candidates were the same and didn't bother to vote
