this week I:

gave a 20 minute talk + defense on power relationships and epistemic injustice
fit an entire workweek's hours into three days
reviewed the contract situation for our counsel
ran four meetings in a row in one day
had a meeting with independent counsel for case support
wrote three new case studies
joined an ad hoc response team to a new policy
on top of all of the regular things in a school/work week

like dudes I'm so proud and so tired lmaooo

2020 chronicling: haven't seen the sky since monday at the latest. visibility's about a block. AQI's been >200 since the same. got drifts of ash building up in the back yard. eyes haven't stopped running since weds, but anti-irritant drops help. the smoke cover makes things very cold. Wearing a mask whenever I have to go up or downstairs - staircase to basement is a 5 second walk, but outside. Being doubly quarantined for a plague and an environmental debacle is truly uncanny. or crossing the line to farcical, I'm not sure. like, fire thunderstorms are just too much!!
