Is anyone planning to attend #4C26 interested in putting together a panel on how we can practice a Slow Pedagogy in the neoliberal/late-stage capitalist academy?

I was so honored to be a part of this roundtable and am so glad that it was well-attended/well-received. :)
#4C25 roundtable “Which side are you on?”: Anti-Capitalist Pedagogy at the Neoliberal University — WELL attended (40+?), fascinating talks. Esp. enjoyed Kathleen Dillon’s remarks!!!

It’s starting to happen. I got called sir at the airport (followed by a “I’m sorry — ma’am???”). Some might be put off by this, but I’m over here feeling very affirmed!

My long-distance fiance and I are listening to a shared playlist on Discord together of songs that remind us of each other, and this is indeed a great way to spend a Friday night. It would be better if we were physically together, but this isn't bad.

We’re putting down our 18 year old cat Nova today. She has cancer, and the tumor on her mouth has grown so that she can’t eat. It’s time, and she’s lived a full life, but it’s still so hard.

I had forgotten about this, so I appreciate the reminder. OP's recommendation is to vote Withhold on all 3 candidates, and I've seen that elsewhere too, so that's what I did. You have to be a member and have purchased $10+ in the last year to be eligible to vote.
If you're an REI member, you can vote to toss out the board that's endorsed Trump's candidate for Dept. of Interior and has worked to stop REI unions. Vote runs until May 2nd. Spread the word. vote.escvote.com/REI/

What a week – I did stand-up comedy without my phone/notes, did the best at an interview I've done yet, and made serious gains in weight lifting. I am feeling exhausted but super happy. I still don't know what the future will hold, but it's looking bright.

Happy economic boycott day to all those who celebrate!
I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

Today's interview is likely the last of this job market season for me. If this job doesn't work out, I'll stay a grad student another year to gain more experience & try again next year. I really like the idea of this school I'm interviewing for, though. Hopefully, they will like me!

I'm pretty vulnerable with my students. I write sample essays for them & have written about gender & politics. I also recently performed a stand-up set for them where I talked about my gender & growing out my facial hair. It's scary to be so vulnerable, but I know it's brought our community closer.

I had my students pair up & write a peer profile piece to get to know each other & practice their interview skills before their community research essay. I’m so impressed with these profiles! They really made their peers shine!

My mom found this CD and hid it from me. I stole it back, and then she crushed it. Thankfully, I got another copy. She thought the image on the cover was inappropriate. I think it's fabulous.

Last night I finally went up and did comedy without my notes. I was so nervous, but it was exhilarating to be fully present with the audience and not checking my phone between jokes. I'm starting to really feel like a true comedian. I never would've imagined this for myself.

After interviewing quite a few of us in the local stand up comedy scene, the reporter chose to focus on the beautiful love story between me and my office mate, who got me into stand up. How cute! ☺️

I'm a little frustrated. My Chapter 2 is just 16 pages, & I don't know what more to say. Other versions were longer but contained info better suited for Chapters 3 and 4, or the appendix. It seems done, but it's 'too short'. Maybe I'll be done for the day & approach it with fresh eyes tomorrow.
