Sense of Self is Subject to Change

You can call me by any variation of my username ("irish," "coyote," "coy," "irishcoyote").

My pronouns are he/him/his/himself.

Intersts: AP curriculum, canidae (primarily coyotes), writing, K-12 education, academia, Danganronpa, The Catcher in the Rye, Osamu Dazai's works, Franz Kafka, Richard Siken, hyperpop, anime, cognitive relativism, The Beatles, poetry, spilled-ink writing, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, superheroes, Fight Club, U.S. history, philosophy, rodentia, the French language, Marxist critique, Bob's Burgers, the concept of luck, coffee, classroom structures & designs, educational philosophy, educational psychology, Ted Lasso, public school legislation, and current events regarding public education.

Dislikes: "academia aesthetic", Rupi Kaur's poetry, the wind, Hazbin Hotel (et related media), Taylor Swift, the Wednesday show, discourse, batteries, red ink, geese, the word "neurospicy," and anything that tries to get in the way of safe and accessible public education for all.

If you ask me about anything related to education or writing, you should probably clear your schedule for the next few hours because I will talk.

Any and all help with AP Calculus BC is highly appreciated.

So yeah I'm not dead hooray hooray

So uhhhhhhhh yeah so basically uhhh I'm really into Saw right now. I've only seen 1 and 2 but it's infecting my brain like RFK's worm.

Just uhhh kinda going through it right now. Something something election, just trying to stay centered, yeah.

Resisting every urge to become extremely cryptic for no reason. Speaking in riddles and becoming another creature entirely is a coping mechanism but uhh it's not one I like.

Trying not to fall in love right now. Just working on writing. Gonna be in a friend's slasher film soon. Really tired.

All my clothes are dirty and I need to clean my room.

I had been working on some research for three months about digital inequity and how the technology gap impacts students in rural and poor areas, overall contributing to the achievement gap. It was amazing. It was beautiful. My pride and joy. I signed up to present it at a Soft Sciences fair in May, where I would be representing the Education wing. I was competing against 30+ actual college students, and the top 3 contestants would get a $500 scholarship to the college.

So... against all these real adult scientists... I, a high schooler, won. I won. I won I won I actually won. The judges loved my research, and I became the first high school student to win the competition.

I went to the Global Ed office to claim my prize (the $500 tuition waiver) only to find out that I was too young for the waiver, and would not be eligible to receive it, even though I am a literal student at this college.

But you know what they could give me?

A lunchbox, a sticker, and some socks from the campus store. $35 of college merch instead of a free class, just because I was one year too young.

I GOT A FOUR!!!!!

This summer was a little goofy ngl

My gf and I broke up

I switched jobs and am no longer suffering

I got super duper injured on my bike :( but I'm better now (it was my third knee dislocation)

I'm not suuuuuper interested in Fight Club anymore, and have reverted back to my Danganronpa phase from when I was 14. I haven't finished V3 but it's all been spoiled to me (by myself and my curiosity). My nintendo switch got crushed by a recliner chair recently, so it'll be a while before I get back.

My illness has not crushed me yet !!!!!!!

I'm a bit sillier than I was before. Yay!
