Ready to do all the things you love—teaching, research, mentoring, writing—in a context that gives you schedule and geographic flexibility + clients who respect you? DM me.

This banger from the academia / writing / research meme stash definitely has wider applicability but I do really like using it for coaching, mentoring, and workshop activities when we talk about the importance of saying 'no' to things as researchers. #academicchatter #academicsky #PhDchat

UVA agreed to the "Guidance for Recipients of Federal Funding Regarding Unlawful Discrimination" (link down thread). UVA pays nothing and does not get an outside monitor (unlike Columbia).
Critically, this doesn't stop the feds from opening new inquiries.

Saying yes is overrated!
Ten years ago, I said yes to everything. That's toxic.
Conference presentations.
Committee invitations.
Student mentoring.
Review requests.
I thought it would accelerate my career.
Instead, it nearly destroyed my sanity.
