Fwiw, here is our 'conversation starter' poster, including links to our LingVan paper: bit.ly/3R3YdKp and MI Diaries project: mi-diaries.org. #LingComm25
Poster titled "Branding your research" by Suzanne Evans Wagner, Betsy Sneller, Jack Rechsteiner. Main text: "Branding makes research easier: It streamlines decisions. Anyone can do it, on any budget. Ask us how!" Secondary text: "Our research: MI Diaries. A longitudinal linguistics and oral history project collecting people's self-recordings via a custom mobile app. There is an image of the MI Diaries microphone logo surrounded by brand characteristics such as "authentic", "trustworthy" and "funny". There is a QR code, a hyperlink to https://mi-diaries.org and logos for Michigan State University and the US National Science Foundation.

Are you lesbian/sapphic-identifying and aged 18+? Speak US English as (one of) your first languages? Our student would love to have less than 5 minutes of your time for this very easy survey. This is #2 of 2 surveys. If you did the first one already, that is okay! #linguistics

Are you LGBTQIA+, 18+, and speak US English? Have 5 minutes? MA student Emily Duggan wants your candid take on some queer identity labels. She'd especially love to hear from Millennials and Gen Xers! #linguistics msu.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...
A flyer with a multicolored background and a small LGBTQIA+ flag in each corner. The headline text reads: "CALL FOR LGBTQIA+ SURVEY PARTICIPANTS!" A QR code and hyperlink are on the right. On the left the text reads: "If you meet the following requirements, please consider taking my 5-minute survey on queer identity terms. No identifying information will be collected and your responses will inform my MA Thesis research in language, gender, and sexuality at Michigan State University. You must be 18+, a native speaker of American English, and identify as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community!" At the bottom the text reads: "Questions? Contact survey creator Emily Duggan at duggane1@msu.edu."

The skies are gray. It’s the middle of the week. Time for one of my favorite beautiful things. “La Porte”, by Rachel Jamison Webster.

What does this smell like? Wrong answers only.
A Facebook ad for Homesick Candles. Pictures are a candle labeled “United Kingdom” and a box with the Union flag on it. Ad says each candle is “carefully crafted to remind you of the people, places, and moments that mean the most. The perfect scent is waiting!”

Quote with a game that’s nostalgic to you.
Screenshot of “Jill of the Jungle”, an early 1990s platform game. Jill stands on the branch of a tall tree. Apples and vines hang from the branches.
