casual ongoing research project

i am sure many people do this but i love to fall down internet rabbit holes about my favorite subjects and compile information and scholarly articles and books about my silly interests. my biggest one currently is on monsters as metaphor/horror as expression and the monstrous feminine!

NON SCHOOL/WORK RESEARCH

Sometimes I get frustrated that there isn’t a good, comprehensive, or aesthetically pleasing source for something. For example, I wanted to find something for queer history in Brazil and struggled to find what I was looking for (at least in English.) So I started using my old college login and started writing this zine for it. Highly satisfying, incredibly time consuming, very nerdy.

learn something totally different, just to prove that you can

Python! Honestly very hard for me to get into - I have ZERO coding knowledge and nothing I could really latch onto - knowledge transfer is how I learn. But https://futurecoder.io/ is great (after lots of Redditing)

luminous puffins!

The puffin is the latest addition to more than 180 known species—many of them sharks, corals, and other marine animals—that emit a luminous glow. The fact that so many marine animals biofluoresce "tells us organisms are using light in ways we don't even see," John Sparks, curator of fishes at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City.

I read that happiness is when your expectations falls below the reality. A new mind project for April. Good prognosis.
