I'm up to the one on women in the Japanese New Left. It's all good so far.

    Hell yeah. You've got a head start on me given that I didn't do Arts at uni. Idk what I'm going to do. I've gone feral hog mode basically

      Hey, all having it be a formal thesis would do me is getting it hosted on a shitty college website. I fully support feral hog mode and expect not the slightest bit of hindrance in the quality of your work as a consequence.

        Yeah I sort of agree. "Cathedrals" are good but I'm 30 fucking years old. No reason why I couldn't do another undergrad but I'm not getting any younger. Let's see what happens

        This is such a trite wish, but if only we could go back knowing what we know now. Such is life

          If it makes you feel better, I've uncertainly made much graver mistakes, so if I got to change one thing, or perhaps even a dozen, it wouldn't be in a domain like this.

          If you want to write a book, do it! If you want to write a series of WordPress blog entries and maybe revise it to something long-form later, go for it! The rubber stamp from some liberal jackasses or Marxist-Foucaultist semiotics diarists won't detract a bit from its genuine legitimacy.

            I want to do a million different things. I think the most important thing is to get out of this awful flat and country and then try not to piss my 30s up the wall like I did my 20s. I never expected to get this old and so I feel free in a way

            I think you'd get a kick out of the film Oslo, August 31st. Bit of a bleak one. Cautionary tale. Hope no one relates too much
