If you're trying to figure out ways to divest from Shopify, I will help you transition to Wordpress (yes, I know, another tech bro, but at least it's open source).
I'll either consult (for small biz) or give you my time (for BIPOC/marginalized folks).
We can do this. Msg me.

Ppl in power are fine w/ you getting your PhD until you start asking questions. Questions that disrupt the current system.
Yes, education can be a threat bc it encourages us to imagine a better society.
And as we're witnessing today, some ppl don't want improvement, they want power.

The only consistent habit I've held as a writer is making the background of my word document a muted pink. It makes it more tolerable to sit in front of the computer for hours and not exhaust your eyes as quickly

Progressing through my PhD program was difficult as I dealt with an abusive advisor and the start of the pandemic. I can only imagine how hard it is for current PhD students during these unprecedented times 🥲

We're witnessing the entire country getting spiritually abused and people are still whining, "BuT mY eGgS."
I hope you smell like rotten eggs for the rest of your life.

The biggest thing I learned since 2016 is just bc you're skin folk doesn't mean you're kin folk (Zora Neale Hurston).
You don't have to be yt to perpetuate yt supremacy. So it's not a surprise to me that some orgs are dropping DEI like hot potatoes.
Let them show their cards. We'll fight back.

Finish your PhD out of spite.
Conduct your research with pettiness.
Call out injustice with a grudge.
They never played nice and we need to stop catering to them to "be the bigger person."

I researched power dynamics in PhD advisor-advisee relationships. Despite the dozens of stories I've heard about academic abuse, my heart still breaks when a student tells me their story and thanks me for my research.

My PhD left me so tired and burnout, I wasn't sure if I liked to write.
Well I spent this entire morning writing and researching how to write a certain section, and I loved every minute of it. So there's my proof that I do like to write.
Check in with me tomorrow to see if I sing the same time 🤣

Between 2019 and 2025, I entered and finished a PhD program, escaped a cult, continuing to survive through a pandemic, dreading the day the orange rotten carrot takes office AGAIN, and now watching our sister county burn. I'm tired, I'd like to unsubscribe from the resiliency list pls.
