A new hobby but can’t get past my old interests. First book nook sitting in my shelf at work. No reference straight out of my brain. The practice for a bigger project in the making.
After much consultation and consideration, some late nights, and a couple of beers, it is time to consider a fade out of et al. for the more modern (Thompson & Squad, 2022) or (Thomson, featuring the homies, 2022) and #AcademicTwitter#Academicwriting
Should academics reply to student emails on a weekend? My stance: no - choose your weekend your way, but it does set up expectations that all academics should answer weekend queries, and most academics are normal people who don't work on weekends.. probably. #AcademicTwitter
me: so do you have any homework over the holidays?
15yr old: no
me: why not?
15yr old: because my teachers aren't monsters

@brookiemb First degree at 21, went and lifed it, second degree (completely unrelated) at 48.. hons 49… started PhD at 50…. Currently 51. And. Loving. It.
I told my students at the beginning of semester that I love a meme, and now this one student keeps sending me memes with all the emails they send.. and I am so here for it... (a Thread) so they start with stressing out... and I was guiding them through gently... 1/3
@kstonewriter I don't understand why disgruntled, I'm not a writer, but celebrating all the good things should be the most normal thing a person does... that and pineapple on pizza.
I've done all the small jobs that I can do up to this point and now I have to get on with the job I've been putting off for a week. So I'm going to do the normal thing and hang out here for a bit then maybe go do some food shopping... #academia
