Activating, striving, dissertating! PhD Candidate in Disability Studies focused on #AcademicAbleism and disabled dis-epistemologies.

For those interested in my work on zoom #accessibility / the #queercrip #transMad internet, here’s a recent work of mine on grad school / crip pandemic pedagogy!

When you need sugar in the storm

so I was reading in twitter about what it might mean to “hack the conference,” that is, do the messy work of making conferences accessible when organizers won’t.

I’m chairing 2 panels at #nemla 2023, in about a month, and I’m doing them DIY-hybrid. Hooking up my laptop and zooming people in, despite institutional decisions not to be hybrid-accessible.

Has anyone else done this at a conference? Planning to? Tips/solidarity appreciated. #disabilityjustice #makeitaccessibleorburnitdown

i have changed my potential dissertation research idea approximately 3 times in the last 24 hours, let's see how many times before the end of the weekend.

Another day, another work-related panic attack. 🙃

Today was a Writing Day.

That writing was emails and IRB paperwork (Interview Protocol, Video Release Letter, etc)

What are you all doing for Galentine‘s Day? 💗💗💗
The @GeneralHospital writers are certainly stringing the “Willow dies” storyline along- one miracle treatment after another, all failing. My mom said, “Why doesn’t she die already?!” #GH
Oh good, a constant beeping outside my bedroom window. /sarcasm
