Thank you, everybody, for the birthday wishes! I started the day by being threatened with legal action for resigning from an academic association that is now led by an intolerably woke person. It’s all utterly ludicrous because this is uncompensated volunteer work but this serves me right for being smug about how much I enjoy my life.

    So now on your birthday you’re older and wiser, right?

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

    What kind of professional association does not allow its members to resign? The mind boggles!

      It’s not the association, it’s this single individual who is clearly off her rocker. Unsurprisingly, she’s ultra-woke.

    Wow. Whenever I think I’ve seen peak crazy I’m reminded that it can always get worse.

    On the upside, the new association head sounds like an unhinged lunatic you’ll be better off getting away from.

    I hope you explain this in a future posting; I don’t understand. Did you sign something that committed you to slavery for some specified period of time?

      No, absolutely not. She’s a disturbed person who can’t accept not controlling everything. It’s weird because she has the perfect chance to get rid of me. Her life would be so much better without me in it. I hope she figures this out fast.

        My guess is she doesn’t care about your participation at all (might be glad to be rid of it) but she’s using the chance to luxuriate in all the lovely drama she can create about her, you understand?! HER!!!!
        I doubt if you’re the first to resign to get away from her so by now she’s learned how to use such occasions to maximize the spotlight she has on herself….
        Just a guess…

          Oh, I’m definitely not the first. People have been quitting like they are paid to run away.
