Hm. Trying to decide whether or not to correct the student that addressed an email to Ms. Frankenmouse.

Like, you can call me Mouse. That’s fine. But if you’re including a title, how about you give me the one I worked a decade to get, hm?

I submitted. Im done. It's in the hands of the staff to see if it'll be "published"

....if they say no...well...guess I'll just post it here idk

i sent a very passive agressive e-mail to the university saying i HAVE a  master’s degree of which the main language is english, which INCLUDED an exchange semester to the very programme i’m applying to now, with ADDED transcripts of said exchange semester including the Erasmus language test results, and please reconsider my application because it is redundant to ask someone for a scam of a test which cost 250,- and are likely closed down due to the crisis anyway while all the necessary credentials are RIGHT THERE if you just use some common sense tyvm. jkhksd I hate bureaucracy

My face when a scholar uses the phrase ‘the Muslim world’ as a stand in for ‘the region we currently call the Middle East and North Africa.’ Y’all, I clearly don’t have enough coffee for my late night study sesh: it’s only 10pm and I am already 110% done with this bs... Maybe a snack will help.
