I did not consider myself particularly naive about working in academia, but I will never, as long as I live, understand a system that forces Claudine Gay to resign in digrace but not Larry Summers.

So sad 😔
My friend Alice @sfdirewolf.bsky.social died & I am gutted. Just a few days ago we were making plans to do an event in SF together. I’m too upset to say anything eloquent here, but she was my friend. I hope wherever she is, she still knows that love from me & so so many more than she could imagine.

Someone misspells my name every day. I’m tired.

This counts as micro aggression, right? Especially when your name is in the f email?

Wow
Didn’t see that coming

Hopefully Lex will find a cool gig moving forward
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Such lovely staff at the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. What a warm (and unexpected) welcome back to the US after #AoIR2025.

Repeating to myself: the other side is too loud. We’ll get through this.

This conference was awesome. So glad I got to attend #AoIR2025 for the first time and here in my home country
Just three weeks until #AoIR2025 Ruptures kicks off in Niterói, Brazil, and we can't wait to see you all!
