[OOC translation for people who don't hate themselves:
was looking up information about new spellings used in text communication on phones and computers etc. and most of what I found was fucking whinging about kids today being lazy and not knowing how to spell properly as if this were a modern fucking invention
there are differences and new things have been done with them that we didn't do much in the past with our telegraphs for example the numbers especially are clever
information, forewarned, today
but the idea was certainly not invented by 21st century children so pay respect to your elders who were far better at being incomprehensible than your kids today
when I get tired of my tiny telephone keyboard I'm going to write all my texts like this ]

of course.

Though, that'd give me a lot less time grading papers so maybe I should suggest it.

It was the job they assigned me when I arrived here.

I end up teaching a lot of "Intro to Historical Thought" and other similar broad overview classes. If more specific, it's usually North American history, like "Loyalists; Migration to Canada During the American Revolution."
I suspect they're not quite sure what to do with me.
