#PhdLife #MomLife #married @PhD_Genie @Momademia not gunna lie, 7 & her dad are at 2 birthday parties, it’s raining, & so glad I don’t have to. While I’d rather be secretly watching @ABCGreysAnatomy. Instead, i’m writing for the last draft. TV Will only prolong the PhD pain😂

@profallentweets Love it❤️

#PhdLife @PhD_Genie Community announcement: don’t ask to borrow my notes. There are 206 files with the name note in them, none of which are actually what I’m looking for. So tell me, where would I have put my methodology notes?😕

@AcademicChatter The coffee machine

What are your favourite apps & tools for your PhD?

@Sarahrmoon oh well, there’s your first mistake, low-fat substitute? No! Not even the coconut cream alternatives are quite going to hit the spot. But try them to get it out of your system. The psychology is worse than the physicality on this one. I remember this feeling. You won’t miss it.

@Sarahrmoon Honestly, I thought I would miss it more than I do but not having cheese in my sandwich is not the worst thing in the world. As for treats, nothing a little vegan baking can’t fix. Between the date syrup and flaxseed, I’m all good. Soy latte instead of cappuccino these days.

#PhdLife #running @PhD_Genie @Momademia i’m not saying we should panic, but working from home today in a bid to save time, and there’s no chocolate because it’s all in my office on campus, and the Internet is down.😱 why does the universe hate me?😜 i’m going for a run!

#PhdLife #momLife @Momademia @PhD_Genie 7 telling me there’s no way she’s ever doing a PhD because she wants a calm small life. Smart kiddo, right?🥰 Yet she’s up well after bedtime writing her second thesis survey in Qualtrics.🤣

@timothykeyes Which part? The resilience, perseverance, patience, or paperwork? Oh my god the paperwork! That’s it isn’t it🙂

@AguzziAnnie @PhD_Genie Surely giving somebody honest feedback about their methodology section and supporting them through where the gaps might be is the kindest thing in the world?

@AnnMarieBeacock Oh hello child friendly geography landmark? I love you🥰

This is my house. We live in a very small very beige town. This summer the hubs and I decided to brighten things up a bit. I just got off the phone with someone who says they have lived in my town for 30 years and that I need to tone the paint color as it's ugly. Is it?

@PhD_Genie The PhD that is never ever finished

What is the BEST PhD? Wrong answers only!

@PhD_Genie Yes

Would you be able to write a short paper on a type machine?

@PostPhDRoad @PhD_Genie Chicken🤣

@MeganKateTaylor @PhD_Genie maybe he was the witness to the misery of doing phd and doesn't want to follow your path He is happy with no phd 😂

Does your spouse/partner work in the same field/profession as you?

@BettySLai How about the FartBoy series? Or anything that breaks the fourth wall. Mine is into Wolfy The Unlikely Hero, and the Andy Lee Don’t Open This Book series

What books would you recommend for a 7-year old who likes Calvin and Hobbes, Dog Man, Kondo and Kezumi, Noodleheads, and Garfield? Thank you for your help!

@inreGray @ProfMoneyBags I’m thinking that you’ve just nailed it really🙂

How do you say “I promise I’m smart my brain is just fried” professionally??

@drdelarocker Yes. The answer is yes!

Do any of y'all ever make coffee not to drink but just to hold the warm mug in an effort to hold the forces of darkness at bay? Asking for a friend.

@DKubelwa @PhDVoice @PhD_Genie @PostdocVoice The best PhD is a done PhD. That’s it, that’s the tweet!
