Howdy! New to this whole Mastodon thing (I'm not even sure what instance I should be on) but eager. Name's Bug β€” I'm a queer master's student in an entomology lab, passionate about scientific outreach.

When I’m not staring at insects, I spend my time creating zines, comics, other art, and playing D&D. I want to learn how to make video games. Let’s connect if you think little critters are cool!

OK, I think it's time to share this question because it's really bothering me and need some external perspectives. Are there other scholars - possibly someone like me, really at the bottom of the academic pyramid - that are hesitant to sign pledges of solidarity with the Palestinian people because they feel somehow it can jeopardise their career? I am asking because I am currently not feeling safe in expressing my views and I wonder if I'm just being paranoid

This issue was a tough one to publish, but I need you to know: If you're struggling in #academia, you are not alone. 🫢

Please share with anyone who needs to hear this.

I quit academia and I don't regret it at all.
In the post I am sharing why I am happier and feel like I am doing more for the scientific community outside of academia.

Hello #Mastodon, if you know a Black woman student (HS/College/Graduate School) or early career, I am going need you to lend me your ears.

The Sadie Collective, a nonprofit bringing resources and community to Black women in quantitive and social science fields, is award $6000 AWARDS and all expense paid trips to their annual conference.

As someone who participated in this inaugural program, PLEASE PLEASE share widely. #econtwitter #economics #sociology #science #academia #academic
