Having a hard time with something. For about 3 weeks starting late May, my research productivity went wayyy down as my activism + organizing productivity went wayyy up. It felt good for my mental health at first. 1/3

Feeling really anxious ahead of my dept's #strike4blacklives town hall. A thread:
