I got a Teaching Award this afternoon (🥳) that comes with a $50 prize. The catch: the department will purchase something worth $50 and it has to be work/research related.
Do you own something that's $50 or less that revolutionized the way you work?

The paper I presented at WCCFL this year finally exists! It's about a peculiar British English pronoun: singular 'us'. I present two empirical puzzles about sg 'us' and try to explain them w/ a feauturally underspecified clitic analysis. Comments welcome!
