This is an awesome list about May Day: https://wonkette.com/616437/raise-less-corn-more-hell-everything-you-need-to-know-for-may-day

@geekylou Yes. Terribly common. Things are shifting in some places toward personal rooms with shared common space, though.

@Alda all hail our wise and benevolent moderators

we're all doomed.

@kelsey ugh i hate all these "disrupters"

@oceangrunge I don't know who kyle is but, yes, ban him.

@holocronweaver @Alda or just make a little thicker

@ghost_bird I am so glad she's writing again and I found where she's writing.

All right, I've got my lease renewed. Now to figure out re-jiggering summer or what

Update: talked to advisor, he has a grant he wants somebody to work on. Talked to property management, they had not rented my place yet so they'll send me a lease today through e-mail. Hopefully I will only stay one more semester. Do not want to be here a whole year.

@Ashoka So I guess the short answer remains that you should not post anything to Mastodon that you absolutely don't want to come out publicly?

@Jules Especially since, like, when you're dealing with academics, the smartest and most accomplished person in the room is almost always the one who's like, "I have no idea what you just said, here are some elementary questions."

@kelsey yessss. Though seriously his performance is less impressive when you see that he's hit so many of his home runs against the Reds. They're just letting the people seize the means of run production.

Phew! At least I got my funding situation sorted out. But... still. Everything else happens so much.

Like Cortes, I burned the boats, but now I'm uncertain - I'm a little... stuck in my research, I need to get a jorb lined up, but it looks like more work would have to be done beyond a job start date if I'm not going to stay here. I mean, I'm out of here August 1. My lease is up, I need to move, and I was hoping to get a jorb then and move out and defend sometime in August or a little later, but these things are coming up. Also: they just talked about summer arrangements and they seem to have me put at half rather than the full funding?! I thought they had related to me that I would be on this for full. That... is not good.
