This week’s experience with a paper rejection, Reviewer 2: redo your entire historical data collection, redo your entire analysis, only focus on these two things that I care about, and here are my papers that you didn’t cite. This rejection took 6 months, 55% of a dolphin gestation. 🐬

A journal took 11 months to review and reject my paper. Dolphins take that long to gestate. And then there are baby dolphins.
