To my non-academic followers, a short bit on what this means:
STEM faculty especially often need to get a certain amount in grants to be awarded tenure.
If they don't get tenure, they lose their job.
This usually ends the career of that faculty.
This is the point.

Some 20 years ago I wrote about the Philippines as a colonial laboratory for the US to test racial practices in public health and clinical medicine. Others also analyze the racial formations of US public health, but its concomitant imperial dimensions mostly are still ignored

I hope US historians of public health will point out that the pathologizing of presumed non-white races at the border (and internally) has a long and painful history, well documented. Some practices have a nasty tendency to recur....

My paper on the taxonomy of mediated sociality has been published in Human Studies. Drawing on Schutz’s concepts of thou- and they-orientation, this paper phenomenologically explored how I experience the other in online/offline settings.
It’s an open access paper.

Taxonomy of Mediated Sociality: A Phenomenological Approach - Human Studies

I watched Sonatine again to prepare for today's lecture on media and society. Kitano's early movies remind me that the gun does not always go off, contrary to what Anton Chekhov told young playwrights.

I was about to quote a line from Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse Five, saying, “I hope that we’ll meet again in a world of peace and freedom in the bar if the accident will.” A perfect line for expressing your sincere affection for a friend living far away.

加害経験のある人が具体的な加害について落とし前をつけずに一般的な反差別の教説を急に叫び出すという（非常によく知られた）問題のことを、僕は「勝手に禊」問題と個人的に呼んでいるが、やはり「勝手に禊」という観点から反差別にコミットしただけの人のそうした姿勢は長続きしないらしい

I recently attended an international workshop on epistemic injustice, where a white guy from Europe talked about how the dimension of class has been underrepresented over other issues like gender, race, and ethnicity. It was not the first time I had encountered that kind of people.

I was talking with my friend living in Korea about the recent failed martial law attempt. I could sense something similar to embarrassment rather than anger in him, something quite different from what the Japanese or American media commentators have said.

『ロイヤルホテル』は「巨悪に対してシスターフッドが逆襲するタイプのフェミニストホラー」とは全然違うところに描写の重点がある（我々と地続きの現実を描こうとした）映画なのだが、本当はピンとこなかったのに無理やりそういうフォーマットに押し込んだ上で物分かりのいい感想を言おうとする男性たちを浮かび上がらせているところがあって、とても興味深い

Recently, I started a new project of reading post-war Japanese literature. I am not interested in those moralistic criticisms that judge what was right and wrong about those writings because we all make mistakes in the long run, and we’ve got to learn from those mistakes we make.
