I am annoyed that I have run out of patience before my grading is done. I hate leaving essay comments in this state.

Any day that involves drafting a beloved colleague’s obituary is a rough day.

WHERE IS THIS INFOGRAPHIC?

As the mighty @jaclynf.bsky.social says,

COMMUNITY IS THE ANTIDOTE TO FASCISM

Giving me life right now: letters about the a painting Joseph Smith being lent to the Smithsonian. The woman from the RLDS church & has big feelings about the portrait being hung next to Brigham Young & museum card references polygamy. She writes letters of complaint to literally everyone

I’ve got some gray hairs from my time on the board of Ordain Women. I’ve got gray hairs from my time as chair/interim director for general education during a GE reform process. I’m like 8 weeks into being a department chair, and I’ve already got new gray hairs to prove it. #darkacademia
