About

I'm a kid who is interested in too many things, and sometimes I like to blather about those things.

I'm doing my undergrad in evolutionary biology at McGill University in Montreal. I hope to be a renegade palaeontologist/illustrator thingy extraordinaire someday.

Applyin’ for the Daily Edboard round 2 

My candidate statement is much more art-heavy this time and I’m actually mentioning the SOP (basically privilege-awareness) more, so this is better. I think since September I’m better for most privilege awareness stuff in general, and am less shy about speaking up - but am still vaguely lacking in political awareness on campus so this might be interesting, knowing the other editors.

Also I’m not sure anybody else is going to be running for Illustrations editor so… we’ll see how this goes.

An illustration for a feature about separatism. It’s kind of awkward being attracted to characters/people you draw but like, dang, I would totally hit that. I think it’s the Bumberbatch hair.

Today’s SciTech section in the Daily is a single page which is entirely taken up by drawings of dinosaurs I did. For anyone who’s interested, the one on top is Chasmosaurus belli and the other is Dromaeosaurus albertensis, and the original sketches were done at the Tyrrell Musem in Drumheller.

This week in science: DINOSAURS

(The illustration on the page opposite is also by me!)

Secret thing I want to do

  • Have a column next year with the McGill Daily called “The Fighting Naturalist” and it will be a mix of science and social justice (somehow)

The Daily has a tally on the board

For words/phrases the editors overuse:

  • nebulous
  • problematic
  • thrust of the argument
  • caveat

There’s also a tally for every time an editor jokes about quitting the Daily. And now they’re discussing whether or not they should add one for “rhetoric” and “gendered bullshit.” I enjoy social justice spaces that can take the piss out of themselves sometimes.
