what if I sign up for a Dark Academia event and only write about characters who have canonical doctorates having a realistically bad time
Dr. Mensah has to attend a First Landing University faculty meeting. Dr. Fourier wants to attend an astrophysics conference but it’s in America and travelling there, especially with a poster, is such a pain in the ass, but counting on finding a print shop that can do a rush job in an unfamiliar city in an unfamiliar country is a dangerous game. Dr. Grace writes a whole bunch of job applications and gets turned down for all of them. Dr. Grissom is a woman physicist in the 1940s

Hi may I have a link to this
#Snail rebubbles#tmbd#scientists having a bad time#has anyone written one where there's a functionally mandatory trip to the local Place What Serves Alcohol after the conference#sure you could not go but all the networking happens there sooooo...#get ready for your colleagues to argue drunkenly with each other about points of contention no one outside your field understands#possibly you are also colleagues#my thesis advisor (undergrad)#(it was an odd program)#once was involved in a literal bar brawl over systems of taxonomic organization#iirc it was Linnaean vs. a purely phylogenetic approach#the entire conference was banned from the establishment I think?#I didn't make it through grad school because I have no money and several interesting health problems#but I have been informed that all the biological sciences are just Like That
