should she sell the house? where will she go? can she get a new job before fall? in the same city? how will she eat until then? can she still use her email address? should she start selling her shit? move in w her parents after ~30 years? hey but what about tenure?

anywho people who contact employers over made-up nonsense (as opposed to, say, actual abuse) either don’t consider these things bc they’re privileged fucks who’ve never had to worry about them or *do* consider them and are trying to extinguish you. :)

btw, the stupid thing that my friend was accused of doing was saying the word “fuck” on tv, which isn’t a fireable offense afaik. riddle me that, psychoanalysts!
