There’s nothing to celebrate, @laneygradschool . The upcoming year will feature #StarvationWages and institutionalized abuses for #gradstudents, same as any other. Bring your government issued ID and turn the beer bottles into Molotov cocktails. 🍾🔥 TODAY!!!!
❤️🔥 #antivost
@emoryDSAC we are running out of time before the start of the fiscal year. are you gonna rage against this fucking machine or not? @ravibell and @Kimjacobarriola are banking on your (continued) silence and complacency. Rob that bank.
Ok to be clear (hi mom, get the fuck off my Twitter) I am not going to come to this picnic and set the buildings on fire. I am using incendiary language and memes to make a point.
Do I *want to?* That’s neither here nor there. I am a #Targaryen; conquest is in my #FireandBlood.
The only VIOLENCE here is the usual, slow-motion, “mundane,” violence of needless #WageSlavery imposed on #gradstudents at one of the richest #universities in the country. It’s a type of violence so accepted and ordinary by now we don’t even perceive it as violence. But it is. 🐲
If @EmoryEthics was a real organization, they would amplify the cries for aid from #gradstudents at @EmoryUniversity. If @EmoryRollins cared about public health, they would turn their gaze towards the population dying right under their nose. Everything is already burning.
🚨🚨🚨
What about that 25% raise “we” have been discussing for 67 uninterrupted days? weigh the costs, get back to me, I’ll be setting the #academic world aflame until you do. Rock boats!
IF YOU HAVE BEEN ABUSED, ASSAULTED, OR OTHERWISE TRAUMATIZED BY A PROFESSOR, ADMIN, PI, DEPARTMENT HEAD, OR OTHER FACULTY, FEEL FREE TO DM ME AND I WILL (ANONYMOUSLY) EXPOSE THEM ON TWITTER (IN AS MUCH DETAIL AS YOU LIKE). 📣#AcademicChatter#phdvoice
Thank you, @Twitter. There are few places where the #truth can be told with impunity. Your platform matters. It levels power dynamics so enormous that they can hardly be perceived by victims. And the aggressors hate it 😁
Here are some numbers, @laneygradschool. Numbers so large we can hardly imagine them. This is what the deans, presidents, and minions of the @EmoryUniversity made in *2017.* #DeanCurran recently retired to a nice volcano in Mordor.
Q: What do they do all day?
A: Read my tweets.
Since the #university is private, we literally don’t even know what these clowns are raking in every year nowadays. This information is not available. @Kimjacobarriola what’s your salary? Or is it rude to ask?
#GradStudents aren’t included in budget meetings. Can’t IMAGINE why.
I shudder to think who the new *interim associate senior apprentice acting adjunct vice dean* will be and what they will earn for doing it. it’s just…gross. anyways, he’s gone— maybe distribute the wealth freed up by his obscene salary? It’s almost 40x what a #PhDstudent makes.
