A friend's male assistant is a fake email account she runs because people called her "difficult" and "impossible" for having small windows of availability until "he" started running interference and then people just accepted she was fucking busy. I AM VERY INTO THIS.

How is birtherism a thing AGAIN? Oh, right...

[Phil Orchard (philorchard.bsky.social) @p_orchard]

The NSW Health Minister @BradHazzard telling the Leader of the Opposition that she is 'a complete porkchop' and to 'just be quiet' in response to a simple question about masks during a global pandemic. How is he still in cabinet today given this horrible display @GladysB?

[Victoria Colvin @VictoriaColvi14]

This is sickening.

[Louise Milligan @Milliganreports]

What is going on here?

[Cameron Peters @jcameronpeters]

Here's the moment where police fired teargas into a crowd of peaceful protesters in Lafayette Park, just minutes before Trump's address in the Rose Garden.

[Shit Partners of Academics Say @ShitPoAS]

After two weeks of social distancing with my academic and talking to friends in similar situations, I have concluded that there are four types of academics right now (as represented by Disney characters). All are ok!

Important question: if we are all forced to stay at home, are we going to be allowed to walk our dogs?

[Academic Mom, PhD @Momademia]

Now that I'm working from home, I'm learning so much about my working style.

First, I've learned that I absolutely cannot work from home.

[Victoria Colvin @VictoriaColvi14]

Good advice. So many of us always try to do more, be more. Right now we need to think about what our students need.

[Victoria Colvin @VictoriaColvi14]

SUCH a good thread. Online learning has its place, but to deliver quality is hard and it takes a long time. Time we don't have.
