A word of caution: it might feel like that grant/paper/review cannot possibly wait over the Christmas period, but you can't get time with friends and family back. You likely won't be like "really wish I'd submitted that" in 5 years time but you might regret not spending time with those you love.

Yes! Exactly this! Thanks
@seismatters.bsky.social
for putting it into words. It's seen as a fun 'extra' thing to do in your spare time, or a half arsed 'broader impacts' on a grant, but the attitude of not spending time on it or it'll detract you from 'real work' needs to change. IT IS IMPORTANT!

It's like "hello old friend". This feels like twitter used to be 10yrs ago, when social media was actually a nice place to be. And hello real old friends... It's nice to see you!
