Thank you so much!! 🥹

I’m ready to cancel any trip that requires me to fly.

Please hold your intellectualization of one of my greatest fears.

Pro tip for people on the job market: Search the library catalogs of the places you’re applying for jobs. Very telling about what an institution values, and more to the point, which resources you will want for once you get there. #ProfLife

"Poor Things: How Those with Money Depict Those Without It" by @lendavis.bsky.social
