Genuine question to publishers and book folk: how closely related is back matter to black ⚫️ or dark matter?
Indexes and references pull things together, right? Takes up a substantial amount of the book, inexplicably draws people toward it. Consumes authors who spend too long in it's presence...
N.I.C.E.
Be more like Canada 🇨🇦
In conversation, a true conference… I report from today’s #CADay2025, hosted by @darg-sessions.bsky.social

The challenges of 'getting' children to eat veg are complex.

These dark November months are not kind to energy levels and mounting deadlines, but even the smallest gestures provide help. Clinging to words of encouragement from my academic heroes like a lifebuoy.
Tea and saffron buns and sci fi/fantasy also help, of course.

Thoroughly recommend, whether online or in person. Thanks to the organisers for making this such a welcoming and inclusive event 😊
Using sci-fi to help switch off after intense writing ✍️ 👩💻 days and Interstellar hit really hard. I swear I was only locked away for a few hours, but even the dog seems to have aged considerably.
And now decompressing after an excellent workshop (and a cheeky visit to Stockholm, of course). Love it that @profsalwiggins.bsky.social managed to sneak in! DP royalty! @alexahepburn.bsky.social
It was so great to see you both in Linköping 😁 thanks for inspiring our brilliant researchers 🤩🗯💭👩💻💪
Fab blog post on unpacking the notion of 'collaboration' between humans and robots, including video footage.
Two PhD positions at @liu.se in the department of language and culture. Would suit #EMCA and similar. Spread the word!

Thanks for persisting with the research @yvonnetsecrepaldi.bsky.social and I recognise the long fermentation period. Some papers just need a bit more time to get themselves where they need to be.
Thinking that @bogdanahuma.bsky.social might also be interested in reading this too 💬🫷🧑
Second call for papers for Digital P(a)lates: The Language of Online Food Practices at FU Berlin. Abstracts due October 1 #LanguageAndFood #CulinaryLinguistics
Dr Sue Widdicombe and I are inviting submissions for a Special Issue on "Making Others Misconduct Matter In The Public Sphere". onlinelibrary.wiley.com/page/journal...
For questions, feel free to get in touch with us.
Looking forward to your contributions! ✨

Calling #EMCA researchers interested in eating
I mean, those who research eating practices, not just those of us who eat.
If you conduct video-based, interactional analysis (think CA, DP, EMCA, linguistic anthropology) on eating in social interaction, then EatSiN might be for you. Contact me for more details!
Calling all @dote.bsky.social users...can anyone be of assistance?
