Hi Debbie! Happy to help! 🤩 let me know if you have any questions, it’s still a learning process for me too, and I’d be glad to connect!

Congrats on the paper, Hank, and team! And as a Tolkien fan, well done with the Hobbit deep cut and the Sindarin 😅 you just never know what’s hiding in collections. Sometimes, it’s goblins.

So heartbreaking and backwards. Ugh it is unbelievable. Thanks for sharing, even though it truly sucks :(

I’m so, so sorry. What’s happening with the NSF cuts and in our country is so awful. It really is a gut punch. Ughhh, thinking of you

Oh my goodness, what a loss. I dressed as him for a grad school assignment (long story!), gray wig and all, and told him about it at NAPC one year - we shared a laugh and he seemed just so genuine. What a wonderful article Steve. 💜

Congratulations Elsa and the whole team!

Ohh, Riley my late mum got to see him in concert and I was always jealous 🤣 I like to think they’re hanging out somewhere, talking about music! Freddie 💜

That makes sense! Though, in this anti-trans climate, I think people might be a bit sensitive to not seeing the T, even if the intentions are pure. It would probably help your recruitment to clarify, I hope you get lots of responses and it helps uplift the voices of a broad range of LGBTQIA+ people!

Wanted to respond to this, as a nonbinary person with OCD, but stopped because there’s no “T”. It seems trans people aren’t being included in your definition of queer identities. Too bad…this is an important topic and trans people deserve to have their experiences heard.

Thanks!! Will do!
