Finished Reading: The Mimicking of Known Successes by Malka Older 📚
Reading Jenny Odell’s Saving Time (for the first of what will definitely be multiple ruminations) and marveling at her braiding together of Bergson’s habit vs. true agency, kairos, and Arendt’s “non-time.”
Going to try posting something each day – a short thought or snippet of what I’m working, most likely
Still doesn’t entirely feel real that we had a campus lockdown two days ago because of an active shooter who killed a professor.

Landed on Amorgos.
It’s a very weird feeling to be in a car driving down a ramp on a ferry that’s spinning 180 degrees.
In the final week before leaving for two months of fieldwork. Trying to wrap up as much prep and organization as I can for the online course I’m teaching while slowly getting organized for packing as well as figuring out (hopefully) getting the car’s transmission replaced.
