With such diligent TAs how could the online half of the semester be anything but fantastic. Jokes, my actual TA is excellent - @SECGeographer

An open letter to our Black colleagues and friends, from a group of UTK Geography graduate students.

I literally made this random video two days ago standing on my porch thinking maybe a couple hundred people would see it and this guy remixed it and now it’s viral and AOC saw it what is life?

We no longer need to engage in hypothetical "what ifs."

White protestors, armed with rifles, aggressively confront the police to defend their right to a speedy haircut.

Nothing.

Unarmed Black protestors congregating at the site of a police murder.

Tear gas and riot police

Our dog is super confused about the foster’s neuter. He has tried to lick, take off, and hump the cone. And he doesn’t understand why the foster keeps getting couch snuggles. He never had a cone after neuter, there’s a certain amount of privilege there /s

[Lindy but it’s June 🏳️‍🌈 @GeogWest]

Our poor little foster needs a cone for a few days. He is honestly devastated. Won’t leave our laps for anything. Worthy of the Pixar opening animation.

Y’all, I don’t know about you, but I have had a bone deep weariness since mid March, and it has not gone away. I have tried self-care days and long walks with the dog and everything bar traveling. I just cannot shake it.

[Lindy but it’s June 🏳️‍🌈 @GeogWest]

We have a new foster! His name is Rhodey, just like Iron Man‘s sidekick. If you need a sidekick in your life, let us know. He has fostered, of course, through @YWACpets ❤️

Remember how we went through all that drama with our roof earlier this year? They fixed the roof on the flat part. We now have a massive leak in the join, where the kitchen meets the “main” house. We have rain for the next five days. And I’m supposed to finish my finals?? 🙃🙃

[Lindy but it’s June 🏳️‍🌈 @GeogWest]

I was finally getting some work done, I was just finishing up some formatting, and then saw we’ve hit 50,000 dead people in the United States from COVID while our governor is talking about re-opening business and just like that, done. Wanna crawl back in bed. For weeks.

If you personally know someone who has tested positive for covid -19 retweet this. People need to see how close it really is.

Seems like it should've been a bigger story that a journalist was *held at knifepoint and forced to delete their footage* by a guy in a blatantly right-wing novelty shirt at one of those "let us go out and kill ourselves" rallies https://t.co/mMbvWr6akB

Our sweet golden has finally stopped being afraid of the large cardboard box we had been using to test his mobility, flexibility, and building up from fear responses, and it is now in tatters across my living room floor. Lovely

[Lindy but it’s June 🏳️‍🌈 @GeogWest]

@YWACpets Is she already in foster or does she need a foster home?

[Lindy but it’s June 🏳️‍🌈 @GeogWest]

Fuckin disgusting

@sav_CK I used the morning to sew a new mask design for Jocelyn! The hospital is now providing insertable filters

Worked on my overdue manuscript until my vision blurred. Oof bad idea, stood up and almost blacked out. Pacing is something I struggle with, especially in this no-structure-world we live in. Take care of yourself 🌱❤️ and be okay with stopping.

[Lindy but it’s June 🏳️‍🌈 @GeogWest]

Just realized my revisions were due three days ago. Emailed the editor with an apology. I think due dates are not the most immediate thing on anyone’s mind right now tbh

[Lindy but it’s June 🏳️‍🌈 @GeogWest]

Can confirm
