So I started to write an academic rebuttal to this @chronicle article entitled, but then I realized the only way to properly address it is through twitter memes and reaction gifs. Because my academic mind has been twitterized.

The Twitterization of the Academic Mind

Social media has made scholars impatient, vicious, and dull.

@lizzard011 @quintabrunson What’s probably happening, based on their age, is they know what they’re doing is pretend. But bc they didn’t know Quinta (as Quinta) previously, they don’t have a frame of reference that ‘Ms. Teagues’ doesn’t exist all the time. So Ms. Teagues was just pretending with them.

Single Moms Spend Less Time on Chores Than Married Moms. I’m Not Surprised!

The research also showed that single moms spend more time on sleep and leisure.
