I want to do a shout out to all the awesome @AcademicChatter #pandemicademia people out there struggling with their research, but still finding time to support each other

My awesome wife @juliettemm was feeling the pressure of full time academic, full time mum, part time PhD + emotional support during #pandemic.

#lawtwitter and #AcademicTwitter - thank you for stepping up

It is so heartening to see the reflexive support

IMHO feeling like it is all too much is a completely normal response to these abnormal and abhorrent times - it is important to recognise

But that doesn't mean we don't really feel it. A PhD at the best of times is exhausting, and this is so far from the best of times

#staysafe everyone, and take this weekend to look after yourself. Awesome research will happen again soon, but ok if not now!!
