Post videos from the ground and get shadowbanned for graphic content. Reshare an analytical article and nobody reads it. Write for a publication and get censored. Speak to a journalist and have your words butchered. Protest and get arrested.

I am upset but unsurprised at the levels of dishonesty and cruelty exhibited by our admins. A school is not a prison, but they are hard at work on expanding carceral infrastructures from K-12 to the university. It’s up to us to stop them. Free Palestine. Free our students. πŸ’œπŸ‰

Folks who are full-time professor-type people:

Do you have professional development funds for your postdocs? Could you, for example, pay for your postdoc to enroll in a job search program?

(I'd like to help more postdocs enroll in my program without paying out of pocket!)

I’m running my Book Proposal Accelerator again starting on May 28th.

It’s great for academic writers who want structure to finish a proposal in a matter of weeks (+ expert feedback & publishing advice tailored to your project/goals)

What do folks who don't wear masks in indoor public places think and do when folks start coughing, sneezing, or otherwise spluttering in their vicinity? Because me, in my respirator? I see if I can adjust it to my face even better. I don't want any illness, ever.

Why are union leaders in Canada overwhelmingly supporting Palestinians? Because Palestine is a labour issue. A thread:

Ok so, bear with me for this thought experiment.

What if we dropped publishing?

Wait, don’t leave yet.

But what if we just kept transparent, clear, consistent journals of the science done in lab? Timestamped.

Ocasionally compiled into narratives.

Abandon all secrecy?

Sure, the internet is full of weirdos, Karens, and incels, but I feel kinda bummed for alienated academics who aren't VERY ONLINE and who don't benefit from internet academia's BIGTIME support for book pubs, fellowships, and jobs.

does my job require a PhD? no.
