I hate this. I want academic publishing to show some hustle, but this isn't conducive to thorough review in my opinion. Maybe I'm just jealous and jaded, I don't care

I'm sorry has anyone even ever looked at f*cking words they make these children spell at the spelling bee? This is ROUND 1!!!! 201 people advanced and 42 were eliminated. There were 21 rounds.

I am happy to share that this year I am starting as an Assistant Professor of Medical Anthropology at High Point University. I am grateful for the opportunity to teach anthropology in a time where we desperately need passionate social science professors 💜🤍

In the kids section at Barnes & Noble, found this. Flipped through it and omg, it looks incredible.

Death is a part of life and it’s okay to have questions about it - and when kids ask, it’s good to have something to say!!
