grad school really is just learning theory and maybe one day hoping to apply it 🫠
#cloudy rambles#college things.#liron’s grad school adventures#currently reading about library theory#needs vs wants vs demands#and how there are four different types of needs#and it just#it feels meaningless in a way#b/c it’s Just Theory#though I still would rather work in archives#these classes are just more library-focused#ugh

this textbook had three full pages dedicated to how twitter works. this chapter (on software) has a lot of similarly frustrating sections, b/c it’s things I’ve grown up using and don’t need explained

feeling the need to create but forced to read about operating systems 😔
#cloudy rambles#college things.#liron’s grad school adventures#might do some building in the Sims later!#just need to get through this reading and then do a discussion post#plus all the other things i have to do 🙃#but trying to focus on one thing at a time#otherwise I’ll get too overwhelmed and get nothing done#even if it takes all day to do one thing (with taking breaks)

about 3/4 done with this article from 1982; it's focused on the "history of books" in the early modern era of western history, with no mention of how books evolved in other regions of the world
"the field [...] concerns books since the time of Gutenberg." (Darnton 1982)
#cloudy rambles#college things.#liron's grad school adventures#history of books publishing and printing#western imperialism#racism#and the last paragraph includes a quote about the history of books needing to be “international” and “interdisciplinary”#while disregarding anything before 15th century Europe

encyclopedia britannica has a picture ca. 2008 of DT as DW and my first thought was, that's outdated, then i remembered, and like. it's accurate yet still not, at the same time
#cloudy rambles#college things.#liron's grad school adventures#doctor who#trying to look at encyclopedia entries related to the show#most of them are outdated#using doctor who: the encyclopedia by gary russell feels a bit like cheating#though i completely forgot i had it until i saw a copy online#it was one of my thesis books

2020, learning that i'd lost my spot in the grad program due to failing one class (and passing three others, one of which was my thesis course), with the world on fire and my mental health absolutely tanked
to now, 2024, approaching my 25th bday, having completed two years of grad school (ten classes so far, will be thirteen after this semester), still struggling but nowhere near as bad.....
#cloudy rambles#college things.#liron's grad school adventures;;#reaching 25 really IS all about realizing you don't want to die and have so much to live for
