C19 friends! Is anyone interested in a roundtable on teaching after January 2025? (Teaching after Trump 😭; Teaching vs. Trump 🤬; etc.) Or do you know anyone who might be? I've got three great proposals but am hoping for one or two more panelists. If so feel free to DM or email farmerma@wfu.edu.

I thought the emails about "Portable Fire Extinguisher Safety" were phishing, but apparently faculty members now have to complete this training 😂

What did someone do to get us here?

I've been thinking about what I need for psychological survival the next 1450 days, and... can someone make social media where the only things allowed are pictures, videos, and stories about dogs?

I had a dream last night that I was smashing up cybertrucks with a baseball bat, slow and intentional while radiohead's hail to the thief played in the background.

When I don't win various grants at Wake Forest I sometimes wish that I knew why. But today I got a rejection that came with feedback...

We don't have funding for equipment that we already own!
And there may be a conflict with... the office on campus I am collaborating with! #BureaucraticExhaustion

But would this paper pass the Turing Test, y'all? 😭

Stumbling through the finish line = door dashing a venti iced caramel latte with extra shots because there was no other way I was going to be sentient in office hours.

How are y'all getting through the last day of the semester?

Though I also had a pretty fabulous last day with the nerds in my wonderful 5 PM class! I'm going to miss this crew. #rollerbladesforthewin

I can't think of a better way to wrap up the semester than listening to Jesmyn Ward at Wake Forest tonight!

When I think about the things in this life that I don't want to do, one of them is sending Joe Biden a birthday card 🤬

Well we just decided to spend "Thanksgiving" in Canada.

What should we do in Victoria?
