I feel SO bad for Moonlight. They’ll always have the win, but they’ll also always be associated with La La Land. The articles tomorrow should be about this breakout film which made so many firsts tonight: first all-black and also first LGBTQ film to win best picture! Such a phenomenal achievement but I’m so worried…

Lovely is nice, but Moonlight was groundbreaking, moving, the casting was perfection, and it was incredibly shot.

Granted, it wasn’t Warren Beatty’s fault clearly, but I am disappointed that all of the headlines will now talk about Moonlight winning AFTER the mix-up so it will still feature La La Land in every header. Such as this article.

That’s so awkward 😬 I’m happy for Moonlight but I’m sorry its big moment will be overshadowed like this

Leaves kinda look like Navi from Zelda. And now I want Navi to just follow around Mitch McConnell all day long forever.

Great, thank you for asking! I worked on Monday and then Tuesday I had to drive four hours north to spend the week training at headquarters. It was really great and everyone was super super nice. This week I’ll be back in my regular office learning my actual position. Fun stuff, haha.

Those colors came out gorgeous! I haven’t forgotten you either, got your message and I’ll be back to you on that this weekend!

This is what’s terribly unfair about our justice system, is that it forces people affected to re-live the experience over and over. I testified against someone who had assaulted me and, I won’t lie, it was terrible and scary. I remember crying at work the day before I had to testify, and I remember sitting on the…

Those are lovely!

I feel ya on the relationship front. Last year I did something really dumb & fucked things up with a guy I really liked. I’m in therapy now for it. Sometimes you look in the mirror & it ain’t pretty. One thing my therapist has taught me is self-compassion, so have some for yourself when you’re feeling down, ok?

Really not cool if they actively humiliated you; but we all need money so sometimes it’s just how it goes.

I went to a conference this week where I had to give a presentation that was about my own career and the struggles I’ve had (and still am having) in academia. The audience was supportive and I was happy I did it.

I can say from personal experience that testifying will be cathartic. Do not go alone, have a friend(s) to deal with parking etc.

I’m so sorry that’s crazy you got reprimanded like that on your 3rd week! Next week will be better!

Have fun. Be yourself. You are the ladymaster of this new chapter in your life.

Oof I had a rough week. Messed up twice at work. Bigly. Was yelled at and utterly humiliated. And this is my third week at the job, so I am feeling very discouraged and embarrassed.

I quit my soul-crushing job last week and I’m moving far, far away next month. Excited about a new beginning.

What is something scary that you’ve accomplished recently that makes you feel really proud?

Hey everybody! It was crazy weather this afternoon! My friends and I were going to Olive Garden for lunch, and on the way there, the blue sky got really dark and the wind got really strong, and while we were in the restaurant, it started pouring buckets of rain outside, and there were flash floods and a tornado…
