It’s a one-year postdoc in Canada, mostly a research position, but with a teaching requirement of one course per semester. That’s good because it means I’ll have some experience leading my own classes (rather than just TAing) when I go on the market next year, but I can ease into it rather than being thrown into the deep end of the pool and having to teach 3 or even 4 courses per semester my first time out.
I am already feeling a lot better about life. I don’t know if I’m going to start writing fanfiction again right away – my energy and enthusiasm seem to be directed toward philosophy research first, which is as it should be – but expect fewer posts about my profound, existential depression and anxiety.
Congratulations! It sounds wonderful!
Thank you! Like Robin Sparkles, I am excited about living in Canada.
I jumped ship from Tumblr and this is where I landed. I'm a philosophy postdoc (INTJ, she/her) with a serious thing for Tom Hiddleston as Loki. Sometimes I even write fanfiction about it. Mostly Loki and Thor/Loki (sometimes NSFW), some miscellaneous Hiddles, MCU (Steve/Tony or "Superhusbands" is my secondary ship), occasional Cherik, Game of Thrones, LOTR, Whedonverse... whatever catches my fancy, really.
