I noticed I had re-stated the introduction three times, including in the second last paragraph (“this essay will argue”), referenced a mere 13 things in footnotes but forgot to go back and clean up those footnotes, and forgot to put in the dynastic family tree I’d painstakingly created to show the line of kings

That is currently pending the return of a Journalism essay that was also particularly bad, but I’ll find out tomorrow and make an announcement then. Also, of course, pending exam outcomes, but I’m assuming I’ll do well enough on those.
