For some strange reason I started reading old email messages I sent and received many years ago, around 18 years ago to be slightly more precise. And then I started thinking what if, what if, what if. What if I didn't write that, what if I stayed there, for example. No answers, just questions, of course. I was already adult then, even though it doesn't seem, maybe not mature enough. Anyway, after reading the messages my eyes started watering and my thoughts just stalled. What am I writing even? I don't know. What am I still doing here on tumblr? Same answer. Maybe I'm too old for this, especially when I write useless and not relatable posts.

not to sound like a boomer, but I need some people to learn how to write emails in a semi-professional (at the very least) format so you're not cold emailing a business/potential employer/any other stranger about formal matters in the exact same way you'd DM a close friend on instagram
the formality/language can loosen up in the email chain once you've established a rapport and you match the other person if they're being less formal, but please don't have the very first email you send a stranger be written in all lowercase ultra-casual sms slang with no greeting or signature and a billion emojis
#this sounds like a 'argh kids these days doing [insert exaggerated story they don't actually do in reality]' kind of thing#except that I've gotten soooo many emails like this#there's a reason that I don't have my DMs open on any socmed and it's bc they attract people getting way too casual/parasocial immediately#and forcing people to write out an email both filters out 90% of weird impulse messages and also throws them out of that casual headspace#except that I can actively tell when this fails and someone is treating emails as if they're the same thing as DMs

weekly navel-gazing update: this week is most consequential event in long time. keyword search: "scared" "is it ok to be scared" "beaten and tortured by the ogre"




#old director of south asian studies just talked to me to let me know theyll be joining me to sit on my panel while i present two projects#in two days and intimated they could discuss supervising potential grad work or dissertations despite funding freezes#she is respected used to do the gender studies program coordinating too#and their TA PhD student super severe standoffish goth walked up to me in front of seminar to thank me for my portfolio of essays#on poverty homelessness and environmental stuff and said it was TOUCHING and i should be proud and shell also be attending#after the director of student research invited them#and research director happens to specialize in borderlands and caribbean and empire and she emailed me to say#she left me a signed copy of her book with a really lovely message#and a protein bar because she knows i have diabetes and other illnesses but bike like ten miles a day between work and school#and then she emailed me and offered car ride if i wanted#and i was touched and surprised and now im like uh oh this is important i guess#and like uh oh i really shouldve taken the week off work or something why am i working forty hours for this#well precarious rent i guess but still wish i hadnt spent past four months just going to retail job and had instead hung out more with#faculty and hope i didnt waste my chance to get to know them#also is im just going to wear that outfit to conference hope not perceived as too informal#no family whatsoever so there was no one like interested or checking in on me to like help me see that the developments were significant#a year ago i was nothing but nightshift retail with NO prospects and rapidly worsening health#and there wasnt even a glimmer of hope for possibility of positive social environment let alone school

#if you listen to the end you either get a secret message or you'll have wasted your precious time on earth being tricked by a nefarious tag#aren't you excited to see which one it is#it's probably just a trick to make you waste your time#drum up some notes#that's marketing babey#sales#business#charts#KPIs#suits#uhhhhhhh#branding#touch base#logistics#circle around#as per my last email

I would imagine the twinyards rushing to text or call each other for happy birthday only because they made a game out of it, probably one of the sessions with Bee. Game rules are: first to wish "Birth" on the 4th of November wins, loser has to then say "Day", call Kevin and ask him something about history, or exy, or the history of exy. The twinyards turn 38 this year. To this day, Kevin still hasn't figured it out.
#katelyn: babe whos on the phone?#aaron puts kevin on speaker: and that is how essentially the roman empire-#katelyn: ah got day this year#aaron: hes been going on for an hour#aftg#all for the game#andrew minyard#aaron minyard#twinyards#happy birth#andrew probably tried to rig the game a few years back with scheduling emails to be sent out to aaron at exactly 00:00 on november 4#i would imagine it took aaron exactly one minute to figure it out so then they banned emails or texts so now they have to actually call#the year they turn 40 will maybe spicy up things#theyll decide whoever sends the message more creatively#maybe they train a bird or rent a billboard roadsign

Everytime I see a How to Spot AI writing list and one of the tells is "uses m-dashes or semicolons" I grow one step closer to insanity. I use those because I am pretentious, NOT because I am a machine
#I use semicolons constantly in my work messages too T-T I wonder if they think I'm using ai to write emails#I have read the mla style handbook I have earned the right to use these fucking things#and use them I will!! incorrectly at that!!

That's how I genuinely feel after john said this, introduced Moriarty, and Sherlock bloody Holmes mentioned waterfalls.
#We are totally doomed and we have to wait for our destined fate#so we have to set and watch watson go through his best friend's death and do nothing about this?#can't we just message watson on discord/x/email to lock Sherlock and make sure that he doesn't go near waterfalls or Moriarty? can't we????#sherlock and co#sherlock & co

OKAY, here it is! this is an open-access folder for everyone who has already made a mclennon powerpoint or would like to read them. the first principle of academia is collaborative knowledge-building and I think we can all agree this is a very academic topic.
@franklyimissparis @rage-in-eden @camibispace you have all mentioned your own presentations, so feel free to drop them in if you would like to (and anyone else!)
#lmk if you have issues accessing this (e.g. not having a google account)#btw don't worry the email associated with this isn't my real life full name. if you don't want your email connected you can message me#and I'll drop it in from mine with your username in the title#watch out for the formatting. importing my pptx file into google slides fucked it up a little#mclennon

Here’s a bit of Powerpuff history I haven’t seen anywhere online- back in the day, if you went to the PPG section of the Cartoon Network website, there was an option to send the PPG an email, and you’d get one of these pre-written responses back… as you can see, child me was VERY excited to receive them XD I remember trying to get an email from Bubbles too, but I never got one… I’m so glad I still have these! Hope you enjoy them too :)
#ppg#powerpuff girls#the powerpuff girls#childhood#I tried going to one of the above dates on the wayback machine but the PPG section just gave me an error page#not sure how long this feature was around but apparently this was around the same time jbvo was on#I like how the one from blossom is about them getting ready for bed and the message was sent at night#and the one from buttercup is about her having a boring day and the message was sent in the afternoon#not sure if attention 2 detail or just coincidence cuz these are the only messages I remember getting when I was trying to get a bubles msg#ah good times… man that netzero email though XD the old days lol…#nostalgia#y2k#2000s
