    People vs. THE ELITES

    Hey, what's up? Oh, not much over here. Just drinking a coffee and typing out four pages of incoherent shit I wrote down in a notepad at 2am under the guise of "writing a paper." Same old, you know? Assignment after assignment after awkward group presentation. In this one, I'm supposed to critique an article written by my professor*--wild, right? You know those professors. Zany and unpredictable, sometimes vaguely right-wing populists, but what can you do? Write a scathing four pages about their work and hope you don't fail the rest of the course, I guess. Sigh.

    Well I gotta run, I'm scheduled to intimidate the masses by perpetuating elitism with too much theory-writing at noon. Can't wait!! Wish you could be here!!

    <3, g.

    PS - Similarly, I have an appointment next week to intimidate the masses by perpetuating elitism by liking bands "nobody" has heard of! Those poor masses, they won't even know what hit them. Imagine if they found out I just make up band names to make them feel bad! You should come, it'll be a blast. Call me.


    [*Stepping outside of this post for a sec, is that even... ethical? This is not the first time it's come up; I've had to write a review of a play directed by my prof for marks before. But writing a critical analysis of their own work for marks? Seems even shadier, to me.]
