Ok, academic folx: I have a question for you. Journal Clubs — can they work? What makes one go well?

I have three consecutive emails in my inbox requesting reviews from different journals. What do you make of this?

First day of the semester! Mixed emotions about it, but I am thinking of this transitional moment as opportunity to revisit my priorities and align my focus.

It's been one of those tough weeks at work.... I'm feeling a bit used up. I opened a manuscript draft to close out my week on a meaningful note. First comment bubble from my co-author's revisions? "This is great". I gotta say, I think I really needed that today.

Dear all professional societies, conference organizers, etc.: please stop sending me emails with only the acronym for your society/meeting. Include the name. Otherwise, it’s the “international society for random letters”
