The magnificent amount of disrespect in this conversation is blowing my mind.

Here's @SarahKSilverman telling an Asian civil rights activist and a Black woman that she has the "right" to use racial slurs in comedy & they shouldn't be telling her how to do satire. And @billmaher tells Anne Marie Johnson "I wouldn't know you were Black unless you told me."

This is lovely and true. I have so many nonsensical family and friend-specific dialects that shape our collective lexicons and memories.

The discussion of contradictory ideologies of presentation and the self in @annehelen 's latest newsletter is a wonderful cultural analysis of influencers influencing 💁‍♀️

I submitted an article to a journal today after obsessing over it every single day for a *while* and the loss of control feels both terrifying and thrilling. #academiclife #submittingisanaccomplishment

Stuart Hall at his best about so much of academia: "I wonder how it is that all the people I know are absolutely convinced they are not in false consciousness, but can tell at the drop of a hat that everybody else is"

Very much so. That's what the book will be about :)

A compelling framework by @anuradhasajj from her recently defended dissertation. Looking forward to the book that's to come. I do wonder, though, if the above frames are as mutually exclusive as they seem to suggest.

This piece by @blgtylr is funny, charming, clever, brilliant: "I think I have to let go of wanting to affix a moral judgement to the behavior of people who treat me poorly, and I just have to release those people into the world. Make a joke about it."

@RhetoricPJ I was confused as to why he kept insisting that opposition to elites isn't fundamental to populist movements. I don't see how his argument is mutually exclusive from that, apart from just placing emphasis on the majoritarian + exclusionary populist claims to represent the people.
