@aliciaandrz Lunch date?

guess who got an award to go to NYC to New York Public Library’s Theatre on Film & Tape Archive to search for Shakespeare’s Indian Votaress in performance?

@aliciaandrz It’s like Jacob wrestling the angel, only wafflier.

I really should be working but apparently I have to keep an eye on this kitty at all times:

@aliciaandrz Can they just, like, drop the prayers off at their local Kohl’s? Or do they have to find the original box and print out a shipping label and all that? Seems like a hassle either way, tbh.

someone wrote me that they were “rescinding” their prayers for me after discovering I was a liberal—not just stopping, but rescinding! I didn't know God had a cancellation policy on prayers.

@heymrsbond Thank you!

@heymrsbond I’m a FYW Director. We’re developing this resource to help students with procrastination. Since it’s an issue of emotional regulation rather than laziness, we give students tools to understand their feelings toward school. Esp imp for first-gen.

@aliciaandrz From the department’s end of year party. My cup had a surprising message. :-)

look: I’ve worked on my disordered thoughts abt my body for years. I’m still unlearning a lot, so if this post is triggering for anyone I apologize. I would really love any women who weighs about or over 200 pounds to reply w a gorgeous pic of themselves. here’s me:

@aliciaandrz Can’t wait to see them! 😎

dresses from here (thanks @MOTBlog, for the rec): shopzuri.com

27 weeks sober. woohoo? feeling a little down this morning. I’ve been substituting alcohol w sugar & it’s hard. but I got some roomy summer dresses & am just trying to appreciate the fact I’m sober. no one ever got arrested for driving high on sugar, so.

@aliciaandrz I pair with tights, scarves, and even a light sweater when needed. I verge a little Vera sometimes but I’m ok with it.

@MOTBlog I just bought one so I can remain calm, thank you ❤️

@aliciaandrz Also I love the dresses from Zuri. So forgiving and beautiful too. shopzuri.com/pages/whomakes…

@MOTBlog any shopping recs for these? maybe that’s my solution.

@aliciaandrz The panic is so ingrained in us. There’s so much messaging out there that encourages and rewards the panic.

@aliciaandrz /stepping down from my soapbox contributes to my daily steps, right?/

@aliciaandrz Sadly I also limit time w/friends who are super obsessed with calories/steps/ weighing food. I’m talking hours-long convos about it. So triggering & offensive. Like, can u not see ur heavier friend sitting here listening to ur belief that gaining 5 pounds is the worst thing ever?

@aliciaandrz If you put things off by doing other things that are also necessary but less vulnerable (like laundry), then tell yourself you’ll spend one wash cycle responding to emails.

people who struggle w depression: any tips for tackling a neglected inbox? I kind of want to throw up thinking about it.

@aliciaandrz 1.) start by sorting items that need attention into an action folder. Then take a break. 2.) replace any apology you start to offer with thanks instead. “Sorry for the delay” becomes “thanks for your patience” or “thanks for the reminder.” Also, neither is absolutely necessary.

@ukyphd @ebeth360 …and another earthquake! 😳

@ebeth360 …… started the workday with an earthquake ending the day with a Manhattan(s)… cheers!

@DrSamiSchalk Do you already know Zuri? I’ve purchased online but they have a brick and mortar store in SoHo. shopzuri.com
