Every country should follow the example of #Sweden (& its Nordic neighbors) and employ their PhD students as staff members!
PhD candidates produce wealth in the form of science.
Not paying a PhD student is an insult to their work, time, & knowledge.

A few hours ago, I presented my research at the 4th Theorizing Zombiism conference #TZ4.
Fascinating experience!
Looking forward to the second day.
And here's my set-up: 🤓

A laptop on a pile of giant books on top of a table, and another laptop next to it on the table, plus a smartphone basically functioning as a wi-fi supply for the primary laptop!
