I just emailed the Swiftie Professor about joining my thesis committee. Why am I so nervous asking her!

also gotta go listen to just like heaven because I love that song

Finally listened to Olivia's drop dead and I really like it!

I'm also planning to ask the swiftie professor this to be my other committee member and I hope she has the time for it 🙏

Now that all my responsibilities are done, I can zine make in peace while listening to TTPD

Two years since Taylor dropped her magnum opus

Back cover of the zine. The rest reads, "If you haven't watched Bob Ross in a while, give it a try. Find that little spark of joy in life again. Wee all need it." Below that is a stamped safety pin with the made by trip creates, February 2026.

An open double page spread. There are four sections of text written around a Ross painting in the middle. The top text is a quote from Ross saying, "It's important to do something every day that will make you happy." The rest of the text switches make to the zine maker and reads "In a world of never-ending chaos, I find comfort in these 30 minutes or more if the autoplay kicks in. Bob reminds me, and all of us, to take. moment to enjoy life and the world around us. And if you make a mistake, no you didn't. That's just a happy little accident."

Open double page spread. The background is a forest painted by Ross with four text sections on top. Together they read, "As the new gets harder to hear each day, I find myself putting his videos on before bed each night and his soothing voice and optimism helps remind me that..."

Open mini zine. Page on the left reads "Bob Ross has been a constant in my life ever since I was a poor kid raised in PBS." A doodle drawing on a TV with a stick figure Ross painting. Underneath the doodle it reads, "Please support your local PBS!" The page on the right reads "I've always admired his calm demeanor and soothing voice. Plus, who doesn't love happy little trees and beating the devil out of it?" A cut out of a group of Ross's painted trees are next to the text.

A hand holding three mini zines fanned out in front of a shop. The zine title reads the joy of Bob Ross in these trying times. A photo of Bob Ross at his easel is below it.

I keep forgetting to share my latest zine here, so here is it!

They're so real for including The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess in their acknowledgements

Doing some thesis research prep and I love coming across a thesis about fan participation practices between Rocky Horror and the Eras Tour. Added to my reading list!

I now have 2 of my 3 thesis committee members onboard!

Full disclosure, my thesis will be on queer women's identity formation in the gaylor community from a sociolinguistics perspective 👀

So I've officially switched from the capstone option to full thesis and I'm pretty excited for the research topic I will be working on!
