    My timeline hilariously put these two together
    Screenshot of 2 tweets. First one reads:
A professor I work with introduced me as their โ€œcollaboratorโ€ instead of employee and I thought of how language can change the dynamics of any relationship.

Second one reads:
mom, dad, :)   iโ€™d like you to meet my  *forgets gender neutral term for boyfriend*  uuuuh collaborator

    If students need to unionize in order to get their graduate advisors to treat them like human beings, then those professors have no business being professors. Of course students should not be subject to professional abuse!

    For people who work in Word, Iโ€™ve made preprint templates that resemble some common publishers here: OSF.io/hsv6a/ Be sure you have the fonts used installed and enjoy!

    If we ignore the citation metrics, I actually think this is a pretty cool ideaโ€”โ€œhereโ€™s what this person did and some things you should know about themโ€. Kind of a cool digital extension to the epitaph
