ok no one asked but i did get a few likes + a rb on the post so here's my modern 30s ford
there are some important things to note about ford:
ford would've been born in the 90s
ford would still have been a friendless outcast
ford would still be intelligent and have an interest in the paranormal
there were approximately 45 million people using the internet back in 1996. the chances that the pines wouldn't have internet access at some point while ford was growing up is low. people who are lonely are more likely to use the internet frequently, since that's where they're getting a lot of their social interaction. filbrick would probably promote this, too -- he's focused on success and the internet's booming, he'd probably want his kid to be well-versed on internet stuff. hell, my parents have never been anywhere near filbrick's level, and they felt the same way, which is how i grew up with unrestricted internet access.
this is all to say that ford is -- at least in spirit -- a neet. not even your typical brand of chronically online, this guy regularly uses 4chan (specifically, i could see him liking the /sci/, /x/, and /tg/ boards).
think about it! so much internet shit comes from 4chan, it's inevitable that he'd immerse himself into it if he's online all the damn time and is interested in weird paranormal shit. i imagine stan's grown used to a lot of his 4chan weirdness atp
(to clarify -- this is pre-bill. ford just looks like that because he doesn't spend time taking care of himself. he lives in the basement. which reminds me: canon ford is literally a basement dweller isn't he LMAO)
the stancest implications are staggering, since 4chan is pretty cool with incest, if not outright pro-incest at certain points.
this also creates the hilarious feelings realization moment where stan's panicking, freaking the fuck out because oh my god he has feelings for his twin, while ford -- due to years, possibly a decade+ of 4chan use -- doesn't really gaf LMAO
#stancest#i don't have an actual name for this modern au take i've just been calling it the#neet ford au#idk if he's actually in grad school or not considering that he'd probably end up being very conspiratorial and anti-authority so i'm not#sure if he'd actually trust academic institutions at all#and would probably think any kind of research on the paranormal would be rejected outright

My library is getting rid of our media desk and almost certainly planning to just throw out all of our physical media. I'm FURIOUS and honestly so fucking upset. I just requested a once-lost classic queer film so I could see it the way it was intended to be seen by the filmmaker. I'm so worried that our copy of this legendary queer film is gonna end up in a dumpster.
#tales from scumbag city#I'm fucking DONE#def not staying at this institution after I finish grad school

#being a new grad student is like being relentlessly negged by an entire institutional structure it has weakened me psychologically#personal nonsense

I’m rapid-fire painting bird studies before I start my LAST COLLEGE CLASS
#flea paints#flea graduates and never touched another academic institution again#except I’m little Miss Academic Validation and will probably go to grad school I’m not even gonna lie

In my college library
#grad student needed to find a book#it was not there#after I spent 20 minutes looking for where it was supposed to be#fuck this institution#for context that lab is infact very local to me#as in I’ve been to birthday parties at their pool

If I had to choose between cutting off my hand and redoing grad school apps, I'd seriously consider the hand. Be gentle with yourself, it's a fucking slog. What kind of program are you looking into?
Thank you for the reminder to be gentle. This shit has been stressful, and having for various reasons only about a month and a half to actually do focused work on applying has SUCKED. Not looking forward to potentially having to do this again in the future (it's complicated but I'll explain why in a sec), but I am SO looking forward to two weeks from now when these applications are in and it's out of my hands, as much as the waiting game itself sucks in its own way.
As for programs, I don't want to get too specific. I was a double major in undergrad, and I'm not exaggerating when I say I've literally never met anyone else with those two specific majors. (Ftr one is a STEM field and the other in the humanities.) I want to keep studying both in some capacity in the future, but to make a long story short I'm stuck in a position where I have to hold off on applying to the program in the humanities for now.
As annoyed as I am about the 'long story' part of that, I'm totally fine with prioritizing the program in STEM for now. Hell, in some ways that's a good thing given the limited amount of time I have to work on applications. But at the same time, I've greatly limited the number of schools I'm applying to so I can focus on creating well-tailored applications for their specific programs and faculty, and that means each potential rejection would leave me with a far smaller share of options. It's a bit of a risk, but damn it I'm trying my best to show how strong of a student I've been and that I would work well with their specific people. Hopefully things work out in the end.
I hope your own efforts have paid off too, wherever life has taken you.
#it's hitting me now too how badly my undergrad school prepared me for this process#besides a couple of conversations with professors about grad school and jokes about selling your soul to unethical corporations-#- we didn't get told SHIT#i've said it before and i'll say it again but do not go to a rich kid school if you are not a rich kid (this is coming from a non-rich kid)#or at the very least be prepared for people to assume you know the ins and outs of networking and stuff you've never been taught about#i'm not joking when i say the school i went to brags about how many students get job placements soon after graduation#but has next to no actual resources to help students continue their education (esp for minority students) (like myself)#it's so frustrating seeing peers of mine get cushy jobs based on who they know when i'm out here busting my ass bc idk the right people#and god forbid you want to learn more but don't have similar connections in academia! it sucks!#i know my applications' success heavily relies upon letters i'm not allowed to read written for me by professors who can vouch for me#because their names might mean something to someone who might otherwise disregard me despite how ridiculously experienced i am#knowing you're good enough but might get rejected for something that goes beyond you has to be one of the worst feelings#i already have the sneaking suspicion that i won't get accepted to one of my top three schools based on that#and i haven't even submitted my app for them yet#there's so much i hate about higher ed but dammit i still want to learn. that might be the worst part of it all.#i want to keep learning but at the end of the day it's not about what i want. it's what an institution wants FOR me.#but that will not stop me from trying or from fighting for what i want. at least i have that.#anyway sorry for the long-ass ramble and for the delay but hopefully that answers your question sufficiently enough#and hopefully what i've said is useful to someone somewhere who might be in a weird spot like this#ask#answered#anon

The thing about college AUs is that they often focus on students and fail to realize that at many higher education institutions the employees are this close to breaking out into open warfare. A W359 college AU where they are students would not work. A W359 college AU where they all work at a community college and still want to kill each other the same amount would be entirely believable.
#the Hephaestus has powerful community college energies#run down underfunded held together with spit and prayers#people assume everyone there is secondrate and couldn't do any better for themselves#then they get acquired by a for profit and when the shiny Urania Institute people come swanking in#they're like hands off our garbage#the only reason the fma college au was low on faculty drama was bc i thought of most of it while in grad school#now I am on faculty and god. I thought grad student drama was bad#I mean tbf grad students are often teetering on the cliff's edge a bit more but still#one time they upcycled our computers (not replaced them. we got slightly newer used ones)#and they had to go back and install internet explorer bc a loadbearing part of our accounting system requires it#i work at the Hephaestus station of colleges#Hilbert is still doing horrific experimentation but in a lab that's not even as high quality as the local high school's#wolf 359

I’m sure everybody thinks there should be a work place comedy about their job but I’m really serious when I say a university geology department should have one
#numerous fruitful plots.#the feud with the physics building next door. the grad student who literally lives in the department.#the mysterious institute in the basement who surface once a month.#the geologists cheering when we sold off the fossil collection bc they hate paleontology

the predoctoral fellowship i resubmitted in the fall not only didn't get funded, but in fact got even worse reviews than the first submission, except literally all of the reviewers' critiques were unrelated to the actual scientific merit or value of the work i was proposing. anyway i am feeling very poorly and very stupid today and hate everybody and everything, &c

#grad school tag#anyway STEM research in academia is a clownshow. and brother i'm one of the freaks in white facepaint#it might aggravate me less if i didn't know as much now about how much funding is just dependent on insider baseball bullshit#or if i didn't know that other labs in the department are getting hundreds of thousands of dollars for projects that are absolute nonsense#or if i felt like more than 1.4% of the millions of dollars my institution is sitting on went towards developing trainees as scientists#(DEEP BREATH) okay it's cool it's fine i'm over it. whatever

at a bar last semester I got asked for not my number, not my instagram, but my LINKEDIN. and I’m still thinking about it. harrowing. don’t go to grad school.
#pros of grad school: 1) learning 2) friends 3) in another 18 months I can put letters after my name if I want to be annoying#cons: 1) see above 2) inherent reactionary stance of institutions 3) expensive 4)#sometimes you have to say ‘I can’t go I have homework’ like some kind of fucking eighth grader when you are twenty five#and I’m not even in dc anymore! this should be the kind of harrowing party story you have when the only young people r federal contractors#personal
