@evelyngfrick Congratulations!!

Just wait till y’all learn what adjuncts are paid…

[Catherine D. Tan @Catherineoscopy]

My first TT job (2018-2020) paid $64k, 4-4 load, terrible benefits. Colleagues advised that if I ever have children I should time for May births or prepare to take leave without pay.

That job made it impossible to plan a future.

I left.

@bexistorian We just lost one of ours too. It’s so hard. I am so sorry.

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

Mood.

@restraple Right?! I thought that was shockingly easy for a final jeopardy

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

Hilariously, my mom, watching from her hospital bed, shouted “Jane Austen” after the category of Literature was revealed but before the question was asked. So maybe she refused to be conscious for twelve hours this week because she was time traveling to the future.

[Abby Ang @angmedieval]

This is not surprising to me, because academia loves con artists.

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

@Catherineoscopy These questions are becoming a thing for undergrad admissions now too. This is NYU’s new essay question, and there are a few more using a version of it that I am not remembering at the moment.

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

@maryanneandmimi This is actually a ploy we early medievalists use to make friends who know French.

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

@Forgehammer @heyprofbow Any assignment due at midnight must be due via an online submission portal, so can your daughters simply turn in their assignments early? I also do the midnight due times but it is bc I recognize students often work late at night & want to give them as much time as I can.

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

This speaks to my experience.

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

Spoopy greetings from Bobcat.

@JortsTheCat @_juicyanna @queenveej If this is Jorts' milkshake duck moment, I'm gonna be real sad it is implying that people who are using a grocery shopping service for any number or reasons don't deserve edible vegetables and for a shopper to actually look for the products in the store

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

@DrMLovesLit Ok we decided if they get reduced to $100 for the pair, we will get them and pose cats on them.

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

I just really need the world to see…whatever is going on here…with a product for sale in my area on FB Marketplace. 🦅

[Erin E. Sweany @esweany]

@DrMLovesLit Ok, so spouse and I seriously talked about it before we saw how much they were. He wanted to put them in the guest room.
