My first time at @AAALinks ! What a #conference. My highlights for today were #raciolinguistics sessions and linguistic #discrimination. And a session on #narrative #methods in #applied #linguistics. And the poster session. And we haven’t even had the first #plenary yet. #AAAL24

Looking forward to celebrating with the #ArchiveAdventCalendar but it's not always easy to fit these themes so look out for some slightly different takes on Christmas starting with #Festivefood. Think duck, goose, turkey from this Donald Brothers fabric sample!
