On my way home from #NCA2023 - a weekend full of brilliant people. Proud to say that my paper on white nationalism and deplatforming was recognized as Top Student Paper in the Critical-Cultural Studies Division! Read it here in Media, Culture & Society https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/01634437231169909

On my way to #AoIR but just realized that I left my nice conference shoes by the door. I guess I'll be hitting Philly in my Airport Adidas... #AoIRstyle

Teaching Mass Communication and Society for the first time! Out of 40 students, 35 have chosen a digital platform of some sort for their final project. A vindication of "platform studies" if I ever saw one.

This is my zine! Early Internet Memories is a reversible/two-sided zine for researchers and participants interested in internet histories. It includes a checklist for the archive promenade: a method of going through digital traces in web archives and reconstructing a platform's history.

It is part of the #DIYMethods23 conference! and more coming soon...

Hey @AoIR - this is my first year as a member and I look forward to many more!

And hello #academia #phd #commodon #tech I'm new to Mastodon!

I am a PhD candidate in #Communication at Pittsburgh. I study reactionary digital platforms. I'm finishing up my dissertation, The Reactionary Web, about how racist principles of platform governance keep the far-right online.

I'm passionate about debate, #transrights, and multimedia syllabi. I also have the best cat of all time -- pics soon!
