That last one is the only one on the list where I can see why professors *think* it's a good idea, good to make kids review stuff while it's still fresh, right? Yeah except: 1) I am not a kid who needs to be made to review things & 2) on Mondays I don't get out of class until 9PM--there is no 'still fresh' left to review with by the time I get out of class

I have a whole list of guidelines for duedates that are to me very obvious but apparently not universally so, because profs keep Doing The Thing

(things should be due on weekdays, preferably ones where the class meets, and at either 11:59 or the beginning of the class period. Things should *not* be due on: weekends, random times unrelated to the class schedule, or--with the exception of in class assignments--on the same day that the info necessary to complete the thing is provided)

@ljwrites genres are, ultimately, marketing terms. Useful ones, but deciding how you're going to sell a book before you've even started it feels a bit like putting the cart before the horse, to me

@hafnia@weirder.earth why????
