Thought my supervisor was kidding when they said, 'Just one more experiment.' It's been 'one more' for 6 months now. 😩 #PhDResearch #EndlessExperiments

Meeting with my supervisor be like: 'Why don't you just publish this already?' Me: 'Because it's not ready!' 😤 #PhDStruggles #Pressure

Pouring your soul into a manuscript draft, only to have your supervisor return it looking like a battleground of red ink can be absolutely demoralizing. It's like seeing your dreams crumble before your eyes, and the painstaking editing process feels like an eternal loop. #PhDWoes

The pressure to attend every conference your supervisor does, even if it's unrelated to your research, can be overwhelming. It feels like a never-ending tour of academic events, leaving you little time for actual work. #ConferencePressure #PhDPressure

The constant struggle to obtain clear and constructive feedback on your work can be a source of immense frustration. It's like walking through a maze blindfolded, unsure if you're moving in the right direction. #FeedbackFrustration #PhDGoals

When your supervisor casually suggests adding a new 500-page book to your already overflowing reading list, it's hard not to feel overwhelmed. It's like being handed a mountain to climb when you're already juggling a dozen tasks. #ReadingOverload #PhDReadingList

One of my professors at @yale, @zareenagrewal.bsky.social, just expressed support for murdering and kidnapping women, children and elderly, just because they are Jewish / Israeli. I am Jewish. I am afraid. The university has done nothing.
