Me: 🤦🏽‍♀️ That’s not what I want. I want to use the email associated with my ORCID ID.
Journal: Cool, you have to create a brand new account with us.

WHY?!
To their credit though, they said if I sent them the submission ID, they would transfer it to the new account I created. But still I ask you WHY

Me: *goes into journal site and literally cannot change my email and it’s different from my ORCID ID*
Me: Hey journal, I can’t change this email but it’s not the one I want to use.
Journal: Hey bestie, here’s instructions on how to change your ORCID ID email. 🧵

*me submitting an article*
Journal: Hey bestie, we are sending this back because the email on the cover page doesn’t match what we have in our system.
Me: It matches my ORCID ID though which I used to submit.
Journal: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ doesn’t match 🧵

TOO REAL! I just got a pub accepted & was like welp 4 of these people are now retired.

I generally find that creative things help me cope - like with the loss of all of my NIH grant funding. So, with help of chatGPT, I wrote a movie pitch about a group of queer and trans faculty who lose their funding and the lengths they will go to to re-fund it. Will add some snippets below.

Instead of starting meetings by asking people, “How’s it going?” I’ve just decided to start asking, “How are the horrors treating you today?”

For your consideration.

“I don’t think you can be a good psychologist without being an advocate. It’s not an add on- it’s part of the job” - Sheila schuster

I know many psychologists don’t believe this but I fully agree.

Always here to provide hype point out the real life grades which are definitely real!
