Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Thanks! It is some consolation. ๐Ÿซ‚

I'm glad, because that's the pressure that's on you, no doubt, in finishing this dissertation. Life is funny. Your whole self worth is not this. It's a transactional relationship. Your committee is hopeful, so you should be. Get the shit done and get on with your life, which has many surprises in store for you, don't I know? You're definitely worthy. Nobody flunks the dissertation stage, so just write the thing. You'll be fine. Trust me, if your life is anything like mine, there is a life beyond the dissertation that is far more challenging and will wipe the glue right off your ass.
