The wizard is snuggled into his bed, reading a book about composting. The little cat is curled up above the covers, by his feet.

Yes, I want to know. I want to hear all the gritty details of your research. I want you to tell me the same story forty times. I want to hear about how your dog can’t shut up and then you say, “Oh my god, I can’t shut up either!” To which I will reply “Don’t.” You’re my friend. I love you.

lamenting all the tiny deaths of scholarship we’ve seen over the past few decades: folks being pushed out of abusive PhD programs; schools refusing to hire full-time faculty; “austerity” measures designed for program cuts; general defunding of education; forced AI adoption; etc.

Today I heard about an interesting book on a public radio station show, then when I got home I went to the website for my local public library and requested it. I'll have it tomorrow for free.

This is precious. We must protect this.

I gave an entire therapy session to my class last night. Read them poetry. Made them laugh. We all can only do small things. They add up. Do them. Those of us who have strength that comes from the safety of privilege...need to use it to lift others up.
