PSA: If you've been performing a pre-pandemic version of yourself, STOP. You're doing yourself and others a disservice by perpetuating the myth that everything's okay and feeling otherwise is some how a moral failure.

Grad school app season is (mostly) over, and since academic twitter is going nuts about the idea of paying research assistants $15/hr...

Bin gespannt, wen Trump als nächstes begnadigt.
Ich tippe auf Voldemort, König Herodes, die Hänsel-und-Gretel-Hexe und Karius und Baktus.

I need more sociologists to write op-eds so I can assign them in my classes. And I need hiring/tenure committees to start considering them important to the field and the public, because they are. Thank you for coming to my TEDx Talk, independently organized in my bedroom/office.

My Twitter timeline made me think that everyone is social distancing, but then I went for a walk around my neighborhood and realized it's just that I follow a bunch of rule-following nerds.

A school superintendent said something profound in his address cancelling school for the next 3 weeks. He said: In the end, it will be impossible to know if we overreacted or did too much, but it will be QUITE apparent if we under reacted or did too little.
Hear those words....
