(animals) Sorry to say, our sweetie Kitty is no longer with us

STOP YOUR DOOMSCROLLING AND CHECK OUT ZORA THE SPOTTED BAT 🦇

I told my date to put a question on the agenda for our meeting, and they wrote up an agenda and sent it to me for approval. I'm charmed.

Sometime pre-dawn, my foot peaked out of the blanket. Kitty must have come up and tapped on it with his paw to remind me to feed him ♥️❤️

Has anyone heard of Academic Studies Press? They contacted me after a paper I presented and I am wondering whether they are legit, does anybody know? www.academicstudiespress.com

Eeee, @orinp.bsky.social found @valeriefrankel.bsky.social and my book in the library!

There is something so special about getting to go on a fun, good date, then going home and cuddling GF and telling her about it <3<3

Paper revisions and iced coffee

Ouch, a desk rejection with a vague reason.

The writing groups are lovely 💜💜💜💜

He's checking on you. He loves you 💜 No matter what, okay?

Welcome to BlueSky @flumminism.bsky.social ! Well worth your follow 💜

A person on a dating app asked me how I thought my research was useful to the world - and that is the most personalized form of negging I've experienced.

I spent hours and hours suggesting revisions for a paper and offering to accept it with major revisions. I so hope they appreciate the work I put into this rather than hating me or themselves....

Apps are communities… we share our loves, hopes, fears, and dreams… When you lose a community that is a real loss It’s okay to mourn those losses

Absolutely needed it!

May or may not have run over to someone who muttered transphobic stuff at me, and asked with a huge threatening smile if there's anything they'd like to say to my face. There was not.

Eeep, I matched with someone for maybe the first time ever. GF has been encouraging me to go on apps to try to find candidates for found family and enlargin our policule. Now someone wrote me about books they like, and I'm cautiously not hiding behind a chair.

I was accepted to present about "Understandings of Intersexuality in Current Novels", at the Intersex Insights 2025 conference. I'm really looking forward to presenting and listening to all the intereseting papers!

I'm annoyed and I'm making a list of scholars! But I surely don't know everyone, please send me suggestions!!

I used the school's textbooks to teach myself, then became a huge bookworm. Years later I used my so-so English reading to devour mountains of fanfiction, and over time it became easier.

Planting too many starfruits.

Confession: a person offered me fair pay for my work, and I almost had a panic attack from the surprise. Not a joke - just my life in academia.

You don’t have a name. You don’t have a home. You have only the fire at your fingertips – until the day you meet her. 🍃 fairytale short story 👩‍❤️‍👩 sapphic 🔮 magic 🎭 second pov ❣️ 99c 🔖 story link: mybook.to/WDd0F 📖 goodreads link: www.goodreads.com/book/show/75... [ #booksky ] [ 📚💙 ]

My real joys in life: brilliant queer students, squeaky snow, and awkward/nerdy groups of marginalized people. We're all worried. We're all, also, incredible.

It's true

Boasting about (all kinds of) privilege - from wealth to health - is one of the more eye-rolling things about social media. Sure, spread joy, but acting like it's somehow magic that everyone can access is just off-putting.
