The kind of LinkedIn posts I hate are now everywhere đŠđŠ.
Grad Students: I was at a coffee house earlier and I heard a grad student say she was taking the day off. I looked right at her and said âThatâs exactly what Iâd want to hear if I was applying to the same job as you in three years.â I could see the tears well up, but itâs the 1/.

One thing I struggle with in academia is how slow things can be. Great ideas, collaborations, papers, but all these often come to life when they're no longer relevant (if at all). How do you deal with this and any tips to speed things up? #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter.

Getting a bit tired of the discussions around career breaks and how they 'look bad.' Burnout looks bad. Being forced to choose between work and caring for family looks bad. Chronic illness looks bad. Jobs shouldnât be gatekept for people whoâve never had to take a break.

Everyone talks about the student not being good enough but no one about the supervisors massively failing her, deciding AFTER 4 years that her PhD is out of scope. We need senior academics to do better in so many aspects.
âI paid 100k for a PhDâ .Well, you didnât. You paid 100k to be allowed supervision and research time to produce a work which, all being well, would then be examined for a doctorate.

Nothing better than reviewers who recommend your paper for publication, while making suggestions that will further improve it! Sometimes I find it difficult to work on side projects in my 'free' time, but I'm thrilled to see some of my individual work taking shape đĽł.

Heartbreaking news once again. Migrants are forced to make dangerous journeys across the Aegean Sea, fleeing conflict and poverty, and when they finally arrive, they face illegal pushbacks by Greek authorities, forcing them back into dangerous waters.
