Now this makes sense if you don’t think about it…
"The $226,000 grant...was flagged by the Texas Republican senator’s team as having an inappropriate focus on 'gender.'"

Didn't take too long, apparently:

Abstract for the IOSCS section at SBL submitted! Co-presenting a paper with Joshua Parker (Cambridge) on a Greek origin of ἀκροβυστία.

Hope we can present something cutting edge. 🤣
