A year ago today I had a heart attack. I'm eternally grateful for the support of @ProfPMiddleton, @DLClough, & Caroline Tee, on this day last year, and for the year that I've had (& might not have had at all!) since then. Here are a few grateful ramblings! wedossett.com/post/the-enorm…
I’m glad we all got into academia as all the jobs disappeared and universities became authoritarian hedge fund rackets.
You get to pick one thing to be good at every week - working out, cooking, no screens, kicking ass at work, clean house. If you try to pick two things, you get sent to the back of the line and get no things.
"your cat will eat you when you die" yeah but he shows infinite grace by making no attempt in the meantime. leave him alone
Coauthor with me if you want a paper that takes 5 years to come out and gets a lot of weird citations.
Academic LinkedIn: "Thrilled and proud to have completed my 9th book; just in time for my new promotion!" Academic Twitter: "anyone know how to finish a sentence?"
this week I gave a lecture and seminars on toxic beauty standards & oppression but still took 1.5 hours each morning getting ready and putting on makeup, stupid irony 🤷♀️
i don't speak about this much but my older brother, who was autistic and had schizophrenia, died one christmas morning due to tory cuts to services. to many of us, the way writers and politicians legitimise such cuts is not a twitter debate but a matter of life and death.
Can’t believe how quickly this generation of college students went from being characterized as lazy, unmotivated and unprepared to accomplish anything to a posing such a threat to their elders that they must be subdued by snipers and cops with cuffs and clubs.
Genuinely so saddened by Princeton’s utterly draconian decision to “immediately arrest” any student in an encampment and its “shame if something happened”-style email that this might lead to suspension, expulsion, termination of degree
I gave mom Dennet’s book to read and she said “oh there are people I know here” and I said “who?!” and she said casually “Popper, Ayer and Ryle -they came to Cambridge to give talks and I talked to them.” Seriously mum?
We're coming towards the end of term and I'm feeling pretty drained. But I just found out that a paper I reviewed has been accepted for publication, so that's nice. It's good when journals let you know the outcome of your reviewing activities.
academia attempts to kill every piece of your desire to be creative, imaginative, and deal with the messiness of human life. it really just makes you get to a point where you write bullshit articles so you can keep getting a paycheck.
my toxic trait is i genuinely believe i would have no trouble befriending a wild bear
There is no such thing as “a sick note culture.” There is a record high NHS waiting list, crippling housing costs, widespread food poverty, stagnant wages and inadequate benefit rates, a broken social care system, dire mental health services, and closed Sure Start centres.
what's it called when you get performance anxiety but the performance is just leaving your house
Some may argue that philosophy has no practical world application but those people have never been asked what hospitality is during a bartending interview and had the benefit of reciting Derrida’s definition from memory like it was an original and spontaneous idea of their own ;)
i get really frustrated when i am unwell as an autistic person because my interoception is so bad that i can’t tell whether i’m physically unwell or i’m just burnt out or unhappy or what is actually wrong
Academia is either: - Do you have capacity in the next 40 minutes to review this book? OR - Apologies for the late response but the past decade has been hectic, still keen to chat?
