wonder what's up with all the body-swap narratives from the past few years (It's What's Inside, The Substance, Possessor, Freakier Friday, Freaky, Rise of the Golden Idol)--maybe a response to the provisional / distributed feeling of online identity. or it's just fun 😝

I did jack shit to publicize the next CRIT session and I still have a record high number of apps 😵‍💫 didn't even finish booking guests lol
