I really miss my dog today

Like as an adjunct I appreciate them letting me know before the announcement went out through the campus wide announcements, but how exactly do they think having a rejected applicant in the audience is going to go

I can't believe that the TT job I got rejected for invited me to the job talks

Okay that was really good

Bye AAG, I had a terrible time and cried a lot because prior to and during the conference I had some absolutely terrible work shit go down. I feel bad I wasn't able to be cool and fun and present. But I'm going home early so I can deal with my shit and not bring it to the conference.

Absolutely not a proportional response on my part, to be clear, I contain a darkness that poisons all it touches

Hate finding out, again, that there's no use trusting academics they'll always fuck up your situation

Oh I'm crying because things are bad AND ALSO I haven't eaten today

The only thing I need to know to be sure Netflix's adaptation of The Electric State sucks is they cut the detail that the VR headsets make men lactate and nobody can figure out why

All I want for my birthday is a government shutdown tbh

put in a little time calling people who had volunteered for my city council member's re-election campaign to see if we could get them signed up for any more volunteer shifts. such a rare thing to cold call people and have them be like "cool, thank you, I appreciate this reminder"!
