I can't believe that the CIRPA 2024 conference is almost here. I'm really looking forward to seeing friends and colleagues old and new in Fredericton.

#introduction hi to everyone on this server and friends and neighbors. I’m a once-academic #linguist, I do #higherEd #institutionalResearch and data things, I am into #socialism, and most importantly I am a #musician playing bass and guitar and things in #jazz, #metal, #prog, #country and #americana contexts in #newOrleans and elsewhere.

I’m already enjoying Mastodon more than the bird site and happy to see new and familiar faces here. I’m probably just gonna post bad jokes like I did there.
