So exciting!!! I can’t wait to read :)

I have imprisoned myself in the part of the library with no wifi to read men’s writings about women.

wait why r they playing american football at Bad Bunny’s concert???

prepping for my yap sesh about “queer” jesus and the instability of the gender binary in the sixteenth century as part of my college’s queer history month event yippeeee

I actually don’t even care if it’s an “american” society, if it’s functioning as an international academic society, hosting conferences in the US feels so irresponsible (and exclusionary) like sorry most of earth can’t safely go there rn. be serious🙄

I know for a fact I hallucinate when sleep deprived I really think I could get something going here…….

Practice as research: becoming a mystic and obtaining historical information via mystical visions myself

(I study mysticism)

The Canada-US Loophole that weakens oversight and tracking of arms and explosives sales to the United States has been thrust into the spotlight due to a deal between Roshel Inc and ICE for militarized Armoured Vehicles >> act.gp/3KKTUEe

(I am looking for other things but the window measurements are really taking precedence in these documents lol)

hours turned to days. days to weeks. I am still reading about the measurements of windows near female monasteries

I LOVE NUNS !!!!!!!!!!

Im sick of hearing about “golden retriever” boyfriends. Seriously what about the bond between a female mystic and her golden retriever confessor

A pigeon and the cupola of Florence’s cathedral in the background of my study space

Putting this pigeon in my thesis acknowledgements probably

Savonarola with these stormy skies on my way home last night was just too funny not to post. His grumpy presence reaches far beyond the grave (or the arno)

i think i am looking at a late sixteenth-century copy transcribed by suor michelagniola of a manuscript originally written by a different suor michelagniola

whoever spilled water on this manuscript hundreds of years ago is my mortal enemy.

i am losing track of all the suor michelagniolas in this monastery and so were the nuns labelling manuscripts. no one has any clue which michelagniola is which.

omgomgomg not only are souls eating words, sometimes we can hear the souls CHEWING as they eat

ilovemyresearchilovenyresearchilovenyresearch eeeeeee

we are also bathing in and feasting on the blood of Christ straight from the wounds but when ARENT we when u study 16th-century nuns, y’know?

A week in the archives: we are tasting songs, our souls are eating words, we are telling men to shut up, and we are tasting flowers from the garden

thank you domenica da paradiso and ur beautifully in tact archive ily

this is so exciting 😍😍😍😍😍

I’M MOVING TO ITALY TOMORROW so excited not to be mistaken for an american every time I speak (ie to not speak english)

oh, and my research… I’m excited for my research.

every draft I’ve ever written in my life has started with the sentence “[insert nun/convent here] was badass and super slay” and remains as such until at least draft 3.

Ahahaha I know this struggle far too well. I think I also have some subconscious curse of always pronouncing his name (and stumbling over it) in the wrong language lol

being a canadian abroad means being sent emails labelled “sos” from your government when all that’s happened is a flight company strike

i gave myself microbangs

oh latin definitely won
