On weekdays I somehow read my subscription to the New Yorker, while on the weekends I’m faking fancy ;)

The thought of people calling my former PhD advisor because I won’t ask her for a letter is what makes me have a panic attack thinking of going on the job market.

It’s #NationalComingOutDay! Science, technology, engineering & maths are better, stronger places when folks can be their whole selves. Looking for inspiration? We have stories of heaps of amazing LGBTQ+ folks in STEM from around the world! lgbtstem.wordpress.com

I'm looking for studies that have examined effectiveness of implicit bias training... If you know of some (and if you don't, that could lead to an interesting avenue too), please send my way... #halp #academictwitter #academicchatter #phdchat

“The basis for this proposed rule is the Board’s preliminary position, subject to revision in light of public comment, that the relationship these students have with their school is predominately educational rather than economic.” My only source of income is my university.

I’m not sure who needs to hear this but it is possible to crumble under the weight of insurmountable work created by your own passions. Academics are not invincible in the face of exceptional competence and motivation, including their own.

@chronicle We (grad students) are not advocating for graduate school to be easy, or for standards to be low - we are asking for basic respect & resources. We are asking for an intellectually challenging environment, rather than a traumatic one.

Unfortunately I also lose countless hours *learning* how to make a boring task more efficient… (especially if it involves code.)

I’ve killed multiple succulents because they got moved and I forgot I even had them. I won’t remember my meds or my laptop for work if they’re not in clear sight. Unopened mail that gets moved to a pile ceased to exist. These are not cute “sometimes” examples; they are always.

✅ work a full-time job ❌ cook dinner often ❌ exercise regularly ❌ enjoy weekends ❌ keep the apartment clean … Not sure how much of this is academia or ADHD.

One suggestion from my new #ADHD coaching group is to change up the color of my office supplies so they spark my interest. So… any favorite colored pens to *write* with longhand? #AcademicTwitter? #AcademicChatter? (cc: @raulpacheco)

Playing the game of “has my depression/PTSD and burnout taken a turn for the worse or do I just feel terrible because I’m rationing my #ADHD meds until my next doctor’s appointment?” Part of me is wishing leaving academia felt more appealing.
