Congratulations to Vivian Shaw @vivianshaw.bsky.social (2018-19) and Kanoko Kamata (2017-18) on their co-authored article, "Compartmentalizing Intersectionality: Feminist Translations in Anti-Racist and Anti-Rape Activism in Japan," in Gender & Society. doi.org/10.1177/0891...
Oops- turns out that @vivianshaw.bsky.social is NOT the author of that particular cozy Victorian monster novel. She is, however, a badass sociologist who studies racism, and how Covid impacted the treatment of Asian Americans, Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders.
Oh hahahaha that’s very kind of you to say. I do actually admire that the other Vivian Shaw writes about Victorian monsters, though. They are definitely far more profilic than I am! 🤣🤣
Stormé DeLarverie, a butch, mixed-race woman, wearing a denim jacket, jeans, and a belt with a gun. She is standing outside lesbian bar The Cubby Hole.
This is Stormé DeLarverie. Known as the mother of New York’s queer community, Stormé worked as a bouncer at lesbian bars around New York into her 80s, and used her talent as a singer to raise money for people living with HIV/AIDS, or experiencing domestic violence. #blackhistorymonth #queerhistory
It is wonderful, poignant, and accessible. I am looking forward to reading my students' responses.
I don’t even use this app regularly but was so excited I had to broadcast my enthusiasm.
Assigned ch. 3 of @oiyanpoon.bsky.social’s recent book Asian American is Not a Color to my Sociology of Asian American class this semester and it is 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you OiYan for this important work!
If I study anxiety via threat-biased attention, the word "biased" gets me flagged. You can't design a study of humans without using at least one of the terms on the banned list, which means that biomedical, brain, social science research is now on ice in the USA
The word "systemic" is on the banned list, so if I study systemic inflammation & health, flagged. If I study political science, flagged. If I study trauma, flagged. Keep in mind that the largest mental health provider in the country is the Veteran's Administration, but we can't study trauma now?
These keywords could show up in the text of ANY grant involving human participants. If you say you're going to study men and women, you get flagged. If you say you're going to control for socioeconomic status - totally standard practice - you get flagged. Disability? Flagged.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
Awww I am barely here, but maybe I’ll pop by more often after I’ve brainstormed some jokes!
First of all congrats on the JAMA publication. (Insert bad Bad Mama Jama joke.) Second, wow @ your findings.
According to Korean constitutional law, if martial law is declared in a state of non-war, the National Assembly can vote to make the president stand it down. The National Assembly is gathering now.
We are just now getting footage of inside the National Assembly.
I liveskyed the 2024 Martial Law Declaration of Korea.
This is the thread.
I decided to check out Blue Sky today solely to figure out wtf is going on with this South Korea martial law debacle
