RT @resurrecti0ns: there's a weird libidinal structure where people feel like by cheating on a university assignment they've somehow beaten….

The way Pitt is opting to enact its budget cut is to increase the workload of its lowest paid faculty members (by increasing the enrollment cap on lower div courses) rather than, I dunno, trim the salaries of anyone fancy <3.

My lil reply piece was recently accepted! I argue that May's (2023) discussion of deep brain stimulation fails to account for the added complexities and potential ethical harms of DBS for psychiatric conditions (as opposed to neurological conditions).

a student asked if I would "reconsider" her (incorrect) T/F answer on her previous midterm because she hadn't noticed the word "solely" in the question and because she had misremembered one of the slides . I cannot imagine doing this in a million years as an undergrad??.

Also relevant, it hasn’t been sent out yet. Just sitting at editor assigned this whole time from what I can tell.

how long is too long of a time to wait after submitting minor revisions to a journal? for reference, they only gave me 10 days to actually do the revisions. is it too risky to email the editor?.

Reviewer 1 says the first 5 pages of my manuscript are “excellent”, Reviewer 2 says the first 5 pages “need to be cut out entirely”. Signs of a healthy and functioning peer review system 🥰.

there are certain frequent commenters on the Cocoon (who use the same sign off every time) who I really have beef with. never interacted with them but I'd love to know who those freaks are.
