Huzzah! Got my new Art! page up and pretty much rolling well. There’s a link to it up at the top of every page (between Home and About) so it’s easy to find. Check it out and let me know what you think! ;)

The perils of ivory tower indecisiveness when studying misogyny, pt. 3

Posted onSaturday 12 October 2013Wednesday 9 October 2013

So yes, this book is one of the most horribly self-righteous homilies on how the poor, emotionally tragically sad, snoogie-woogums-needing men are suffering SO MUCH!! by all that abuse they’re foisting on the women!

This is just going to be various fun/silly things in my life currently — sometimes I need to simply not think about dissertation stuff. So!

In specific, let’s talk about student loans — especially since I’m graduating, so the start of my repayment is coming up soon, woot!
