SHOCKING NEWS: Trump won’t do a third debate. I mean. Honestly. Weren’t you kind of surprised he debated her even once?

you ever write a crappy first draft and then delete it to write something better but that turns out crappy too so you look back at the first crappy thing you wrote and it’s less crappy than the crap you wrote second? i hate that.

Clown putting on makeup meme with four panels. 1. Gonna be a long day. 2. No time scheduled for lunch. 3. But I gotta eat something. 4. Hot Cheetos and Dunkin coffee to the rescue.

So my ? is this: IS THERE ANY EVIDENCE THIS MANDATED REPORTING TO A UNIVERSITY IS HELPFUL OR GOOD IN ANY WAY FOR HUMAN BEINGS WHO HAVE SUFFERED AND SURVIVED THESE AWFUL THINGS? If you know of any research - please post/link (thank you).

Just finished sex-based discrimination & harassment training for UConn. We (“responsible employees”) MUST file a report of a student tells us they’ve been sexually assaulted, involved in intimate partner violence or stalking, regardless of when/where it occurred…

Am I really about to embrace outlook calendar for all my scheduling needs? Am I? Am I really? UConn has worked really hard to make this the reasonable choice. Ugh.

What if… WHAT IF we scaled academic “service” directly with pay? Higher pay = more service. Document that shit. It’s thankless work that no one wants to do but someone has to. Women get disproportionately loaded down. Junior faculty have no power to say no. Make the senior ($$$) faculty do it.
