FWIW, this is precisely the sentiment I read in Nietzsche’s eternal return of the same. More generally: “There is no progress or redemption arc. It is what it is”

The closest thing to success in philosophy peer review: "It my pleasure to tell you that we have accepted your shitty work which you must revise line-by-line before we publish it"

Thanks Tom. Hope you’re surviving everything in Edinburgh

Would you mind explaining your reasoning a little Tom? I’m struggling to trust any candidate enough to bother voting, and everything I read from/about the candidates isn’t really helping that

Jfc that's awful, I'm so sorry

Least of all me #blessed

Ah yes. But actions are solidaristic, right? Not people, or collectives i.e. things that have traits

I was already thinking journal of the APA next, good shout

Hello! Could I be on the philosophy list? Thanks!

Yeah I agree. I think posting on social media is primarily my way of channeling my urge to “do something” away from the submission, the journal, and the editor

Ugh that's awful. This journal has a policy of seeking 2nd reviewer only if 1st doesn't recommend reject, which on the one hand is good news for me, but on the other it more or less double the wait (and of course there is still the possibility of being rejected with a negative 2nd review)
