Breaking my Twitter silence to offer a negative review of @downdogapp which has terrible customer service. You can't contact support unless you sign in. Since I have lost access to my account, I can't access the support I would need to regain access to the account

I've tried emailing help@downdogapp.com, info@downdogapp.com, and contact@downdogapp.com. None of these bounced back, but I also haven't gotten a response from any of them. I've also tried messaging on Facebook. I'm hoping that publicly calling attention to this will help.

I made a Mastodon! SoniaRobots@mastodon.social.
I was worried it was going to be quiet over here and I wouldn't be able to find any academics and makers to follow, yet somehow I keep ending up rate-limited and I have to wait before following new people!

Every year I read a lot of grad school applications from accomplished people that don't give me the info I'm looking for. It feels like a major hidden curriculum thing. So here's (my opinion on) how to write a great Statement of Purpose/Research for a PhD program. š§µ 1/

Yes, we're hoping to recruit *3* new tenure-track faculty in UMD Linguistics this year. Many areas possible. Why so many? No windfall or grand scheme. More an effect of multiple plans held up by pandemic freezes.
