What the what? I hope the editor was suitably dismissive of the review.

Ooh, I just ordered a couple of copies to give as gifts!

I regret most deeply to report that regular workouts at 6:00 am has done wonders for mental health, joint pain, cognitive function, and generalized coping skills. 🏋🏼

Offering thanks to Past Catherine, who scheduled "Catch-up Week: No New Material" for mid-November.

I didn't know it was possible to love Emma Thompson any harder than I already did.

Some Englishes have it with a handful of other participles, e.g., “I’m done my homework”, “I’m sat in the front row”. And of course there’s the Christian “he is risen”!

Oof, yeah, links take time! So maddening.

May I suggest the solution of pasting into a plain-text editor to remove formatting? I do this approximately one zillion times a day when switching between MS and other apps.

I firmly believe this is how all grad programs should be.

I'd guess that your goals are different too. Perhaps the conventional indicators (A+?) of being a "good student" are less important to you than, say, the things you're learning?

Ooh, an ambiguity I had not noticed!

I think international students are usually on F-1 visas or maybe J-1.

I offer this in case it's helpful: I only read the student comments at the time of preparing the next offering of the course. That helps me treat them as data informing the course design rather than a judgment of me as a human.
