he will be fine (I say with confidence, mostly because he knows I'll kill him if he dies) but is absolutely miserable! covid still sucks y'all

& yes, of course, a huge part of our "compensation" is the tuition waiver that allows us to be in grad school for free. But the fact that I got an extra 1k+ in my paycheck this month suggests that maybe they could have been paying us more this whole time!

thanks to the incredible negotiation efforts by my union, I (& all other eligible grad workers) got back pay for the past YEAR today (we were working on an expired contract) & I was able to pay off my full credit card balance for the first time since I started grad school

In my dept, grads teach every semester (& are consistently ranked among the top instructors by our students, often ranking higher than tenured faculty), most of us teach classes that we write our own syllabi for, & the fact that we are often going into debt to do so is wild

On a walk today, I saw a large wooden box in the shape of a casket with a star of david painted on the cover in someone's yard. Is this a passover thing I've never heard of or is it a death threat?

Real romance is with a Taurus

I've been saying "vibe" a lot more since getting my septum pierced

[Anna Peretz Rogovoy @arogovoy]

today was the first day of the semester so of course last night (after lying awake with anxiety for two hours) I dreamed I was in my old high school and couldn't find my locker

Is there anyone out there who knows (or knows someone who knows) the #Hawaiian language, or HCE, or one of the related #Polynesian languages? I am simply looking to identify a passage as Hawaiian or not; I don't even need a translation, although that would be a welcome bonus.

please god let me get a teaching job when I finish this master's degree, I don't want to wear lavender leggings and giggle

increasingly alarmed by the potential that my partner (soon to be a registered dietitian) and I (a personal trainer) are going to stumble into opening a boutique wellness center together and have hilarious workplace romance shenanigans (coming soon on the CW)
