College profs love to say “kids don’t know how to write these days” as if they aren’t messing around with multimillion dollar video editing + podcasting skills on a daily basis

I learned SO much about how to succeed (and how not to) on the academic job market this past year. This information is often gate kept, but I put it into a free little video! Hope this helps ❤️ https://t.co/fktohxogNI

Stressed! ABD gal—it all ended up okay! You landed a job as a TT assistant prof 🥹
any opinions from current faculty (who’ve served on hiring committees) about which part of the job materials are often most important? Should I spent my extra time on the writing sample, cover letter, teaching portfolio, etc. thank you! sincerely, a stressed ABD gal!

As a digital cultural scholar, I think we are fundamentally ignoring the devastating impact that misogynist dude bro creators are having on young men. The dudes who look up to M*sk, R*gan, T*te, and P*ul brothers are going to keep voting in the future and we need a plan

As a digital culture researcher, I think there's something to say about the influx of tradwife/homesteaders in creator economies, and how they've irrevocably changed the way young white women are imagining their roles in political participation.

My advisor: why don’t you brag more in your cover letters and CV? You’re hiding your accomplishments! Me: I think it’s Just Girly Things™

Today is a day I’m feeling so proud of my dissertation 🥹 I, quite literally, fought so hard to be at this point, arguing that embodied writing and multimodal writing are fundamentally connected and I can do a project equally grounded in BOTH.

At a stage of writing/revising where I’m interspersing my own personal narrative into my chapter on vlogging + embodied writing. I am a vlogger. I advocate for incorporating lived experience into the text as productive. But boy oh boy is my body resisting! 🤡
