Saw this on another social media account and had to steal/share. I feel like many of us in academia can relate. @AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter

The tombstone of an Italian “teaching professor,” circa 1340. Do you think he got any nasty student comments in his evals? #academictwitter #phd

Just heard from a student who is unhappy with her final paper grade. She didn’t use any of my feedback on an earlier draft because she didn’t find it “useful,” in her own words.

Wow, thanks @ass_deans. I’ll use my raise on a massage and a bottle of Costco wine. So generous of you.
Yes! 2% pay-raises! And we are upping your benefit contribution 1%! And there’s 9% inflation!
Oh wow, this lineup looks like my department, with 50% of the human population not represented.
Something about this seems amiss.....🤔 Can't quite put my finger on what's missing.....🤨

Absolutely true. So is shaming girls for what they wear, refusing to address rape jokes being spread among the kids (because “we can’t say this word in the classroom”), and expecting parents to fax field trip forms (“we don’t accept anything via email”).

Burn out is common but sadly supportive managers are not, look after yourselves #selfcare

It’s been one of those days… #AcademicTwitter
So I’m new here and discovering that venting as an anonymous #academic is almost as good as therapy… maybe even better. Maybe it’s just me, but I find biting sarcasm more cathartic than toxic positivity. #AcademicTwitter
