  1. Prikvačeni tweet

    The president is racist and continuously supplies new oxygen to others who thrive on all forms of hate. Each of us must push back against these dangerous forces. We must make sure that every person knows they are safe, valued, respected, and part of a ideal worth fighting for.

  2. Anyone who thinks the dysfunction of last night's Iowa caucus must be the result of a conspiracy has clearly not hired a bunch of undergrad RAs to help collect data.

    As someone who grew up in the Kansas City area, let me say this: If the Chiefs can win the Super Bowl, you can finish your dissertation.

    Whenever a student is caught plagiarizing an entire paper, I'm sure the natural response we all have is to say they should not be punished, do nothing to prevent them from doing it again, and hope it does not happen in their future papers.

    Our democracy is collapsing, and Republicans in power are aiding its fall. We must work every moment between now and Election Day to stay indignant, mobilize, overcome these obstacles, vote out each abettor in undeniable numbers, and reclaim our institutions and future.

    Whenever I review an article, I feel some anxiety from (1) knowing that my decision could affect someone's career, (2) not feeling competent enough for that responsibility, and (3) realizing that the entire field of scholarship operates like this.

    Editing a paper draft to an obsessive degree, the grad student cherishes a rare moment of having control.

    LGS sits in a chair beside his bed and is surrounded by books and an empty soda can. He is working on his laptop.

    * Paper Acknowledgements * I thank my four real colleagues, two famous people who were in the back of the room at one of my conference panels, seven people who regretted asking me what I'm working on, and three people I am naming so that they would not be assigned as reviewers.

    LaTeX users typing ``these quotation marks'' anywhere outside of a TeX document either indicates the power of habit or the saddest form of flexing I've ever seen.

  10. Exiting his office for the last time this decade, the grad student does not (have any desire to) look back.

    LGS walks out of his office and refuses to look back (as he fears he will become a pillar of salty memories).

  11. Merry Christmas Eve (and a humble suggestion) to all those who celebrate.

  12. I just finished experiencing a group project that got a massive budget based on an ambitious proposal. Unfortunately, nobody involved knew much beyond the proposal, and nothing was planned out before work began. The project was called "Star Wars: Episodes VII, VIII, IX."

  13. No matter how badly your next talk or presentation goes, hold your head up high and remember that you are not being—and do not so blatantly deserve to be—impeached.

  14. It can't overstate just how much "The Far Side" influenced me as a kid. (Maybe the single-panel-with-caption nature of this account hints at it.) I incessantly checked out compilations of these comics from the library during the summers. Some good news on this dark day.

  15. If you hypothetically wrote any single sentence in this letter in your dissertation, you would not get a PhD. Or a spot in a remedial kindergarten class.

  16. Garnering applause on the last day of class, the grad student suspects the undergrads are simply happy about never having to deal with him again.

    LGS is in a classroom and is surrounded by students that have their hands in the air.

  18. Ordering an irresponsible number of items via online shopping, the grad student temporarily distracts himself from his feelings of emptiness.

    LGS opens the front door of his apartment and looks at a stack of packages that is beside him.

  19. One of the most interesting things about my second year as an assistant professor is realizing how many successes in my first year were based on sheer luck.

  20. I just received a "gentle" reminder that a manuscript review is due soon, and that's all the horror I needed today.
