My opposition to capital punishment is definitely challenged by the fact that Canvas will not clear the notification that I have unread inbox messages, when I fucking do not have any unread inbox messages.

I can't do this, it's too much.

And I can't afford to pay anyone because I don't get paid until March.

Well, just learned that one of my classes will be canceled because of low enrollment, even though it has already met once (something that would have been unthinkable, even last year). Dominoes are falling even faster than expected. #AdjunctLife #USPol #HigherEd

I don’t see why I should have to grade all these assignments, just because I’m the one who created them, assigned them, distributed them, and insisted that students complete them. 🙄 so unfair!

Happy first ✨day of class✨ (and all the questions, concerns and panic that come with that) to all who celebrate

So… at my university Moodle‘s down, but apparently before it died it sent out emails to my students saying that their assignments are overdue. So, lots of emails to me today 😂😂🫣

Today a #nonbinary grad #student told me I’m the first visible nonbinary #teacher they’ve ever had, and that they’re so happy to be in my class

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

2nd week of the semester (remote, async program).

Went back and watched the intro video I made.

I guess i was feeling 🌶️ , cause I said:

“I don’t assign group work, and I don’t assign busy work. I take this course seriously and I want to see that you do as well. I justify the readings I assign and I encourage you to hold other instructors to similar standards if this is important to you”

I finally finished grading my student's midterm exams. I know I shouldn't want a cookie for just, you know, doing my job. But I do.
