(not so) Fun Fact: I still misgender myself quite often – that’s how deeply ingrained language binarism is. This also teaches me to be more forgiving when faced with an honest mistake. That said, I can almost always tell when it’s a matter of laziness (=privilege). So please, stay aware and mindful.

Oggi mi manca moltissimo Giulia Niccolai. Qui avevo immaginato un dialogo poetico, fatto di ricordi e serendipità:

So apparently this image had me censored on this platform for being sexually hinting at what? Suggesting what? To read a book? (It is literally a segment of Bosch on a book cover)

The curse of being perceived and socialized as a woman is that colleagues – men above all – expect little of you. The gift, paradoxically, is to embrace this infamy in hard times and find breath in not having to always overexert.

I just want to reassure everyone who may be wondering about it: postal service customer care in Portugal is just as bad as in Italy.

Protest is a crucial component in how we win. We know this from visiting our history.

See this topless protest in Italy in the late 70s, one of our features from this year’s @transhistoryweek.com

It's been many years since I first taught a class, and I still can barely breathe the day before a new course. Will I be good? Will I be interesting? Am I truly prepared for the role? Is it impostor syndrome, or simply genuine care for my role as an educator? #AcademicSky #AcademicChatter #Academia

We lost Martin McLaughlin, Emeritus Agnelli-Serena Professor of Italian Studies at University of Oxford, and with him gone, the world is lacking some genuine generosity, among many other qualities as he had and always shared as a person, a tutor, a scholar. You will be missed.

Hi Constantine,

"The event will be introduced by Professor Gary Francione."

Gary uses his online platform to spread transphobic terms like "trans ideology" and "TRA", puts trans guy in inverted commas, and is generally an anti-trans activist, so why he is introducing your pro-trans talk here?

Don't get me wrong, I personally love going to conferences and meet colleagues and exchange ideas while having a coffee, but as someone with reduced mobility the fact we gave up on hybrid sessions so quickly post-Covid is killing me. Literally killing me. #AcademicChatter #Academia

The first known use of singular “they” is so old that not only does it pre-date singular “you,” it wasn’t even spelled with a “th”

When William and the Werewolf, in 1375 CE, used singular “they,” it was spelled with a Thorn
