Today, one of my interns asked me if I’d want to be a pilot.
No?? Of course not?? I barely tolerate being known by the pseudonym I publish my papers under, do you think I want my face associated with it? That sounds like a nightmare.

I was recently talking to a friend, and she asked me what my “getting out of work mode” ritual was.
Is that a thing people do? Are there different states of the mind between work and home for most people?

Not what I meant! I will not be known as rebuffing time with my dear, but you also have a job to attend to, which leaves me alone to my thoughts- which is how things go wrong.

They have told me that if I try and work on anything work-adjacent during my forced “vacation”, they will extend it.

I do! They’re just forcing me to take days off, because I haven’t taken more than 3 a year for over a decade. So they are punishing me.

They should make a “my job” that doesn’t make me take these “days off for my mental health”.

The unfortunate part of now having easy platformal-access to my dear Butch- I make her suffer my lichenposting in multiple ways. She has to hear the audio compilation of whatever I post here, and tell me what not to post.

Photo of the edges of a dog lichen (Peltigera sp) thallus(body). The little hair like structures are rhizines. They aren’t roots but they do help anchor the lichen to the ground. Photo covers about 10cm, left to right. NWT Canada #lichen #fungi #fungifriends

I’ve been trying! I’ve been trying so dearly for so long, so I can look at your hypothetical posts when you’re busy and I’m sad and in the deep kind of butch-desire-yearning that Sappho wrote most bespokely about.
