listening to @rosedommu and @fransquishco 's "Like a Virgin" podcast 1000% counts as course prep when the course is "Queering Pop Culture" 👌🤷♀️

Feeling comfortable responding to disclosures is a skill that everyone should have. We've created a guide with some background information on trauma, helpful things to say, and common pitfalls to avoid. Download it at

I absolutely needed @jackiekashian 's pep talk on this weeks @MakeMyDayPod right before I started a workshop on healthy relationships for youth😭 "You can't change the whole world but you can make a difference for the person right in front of you!" @joshgondelman

And yes, this is because my first year students did just get their first ever university-level papers back.

How do you ensure students know that their grade doesn't determine their worth? That a lower mark than what they are used to does not mean they are a bad student? That they have some work to do but we are so happy they are here and eager to do well? #TAlife

Just sent an email to all my first year students with a TYPO in my OWN NAME. I generally spend too long composing and editing emails for this specific reason... today I thought I'd just "fire one off..." sheesh...

i'm pleased to see many smaller clothing brands with "extended sizing" (that actually goes beyond 2x)-- but i am noticing that these sizes are VERY OFTEN out of stock?! so are you really including fat folks? why are you making so few garments??

Shout out to @RebeccaZandberg for demanding an answer from PPC candidate in London Fanshawe riding on the anti-vax protests in front of hospital this week. So rarely do we get a clear answer from politicians (we still didn't). Excellent moderation! #lndnont

Believe survivors, absolutely. But also trust survivors. They are the experts of their own lives, and they do not owe us their stories. Many of the folks impacted this weekend may never come forward publicly– they still deserve support & healing & time. /end

If someone discloses to you, don't try to fix it but hold space for their feelings. Ask them how to best show up for them. Ask them what would be helpful. Don't ask them for details, don't assume they want to formally report. /6

My own lil bridging of theory and praxis just to wholeheartedly condemn racial capitalism and "grind-culture."

It has been incredibly cathartic to use my theoretical understandings to unpack my little space in the world and what it means to be a chronically sleepy academic amidst a collective global trauma.
