there are so many variables in play that it probably isn't worth pointing out but Penn State fired James Franklin immediately after losing 22-21 to Northwestern last year and hired a guy who lost 34-13 to Northwestern last night

Heard it’s #NationalDogDay, here’s Vert, a #cavapoo , this summer and the second picture from the other day. He had the guilty face of a busted egg bandit. #dogs

As a kid growing up in an ultra conservative Christian Nigerian household, #Dolly Parton and Don Williams somehow managed to be the exception. Their music was the only thing we were allowed to listen to besides hymns. I’m exceptionally sad today.

This really annoys me as I use the em dash a lot. I'm not going to make myself a worse writer to avoid accusations of AI.

To everyone jumping on the headline about #Northwestern #University #PAS closing news, @ethnography911.bsky.social is a great place to start. As an alum myself, who called 620 library place home for years, I’m sad. But it’s been a while coming

Laura Heffernan and I are proposing an in-person seminar on "Aesthetics for Amateurs" for ACLA 2027. It's about recentering creativity and making--especially amateur making--in our theories of the aesthetic. If this is your jam, please consider submitting! www.acla.org/seminar/d6b4...

Earlier this week, I was at the optometrist. I was so proud of frugal self for picking out a frame that’ll cost me $0 out of pocket. Who was I kidding? The prescription lenses alone cost $350 after insurance 😭. My choice was between $350 and blindness🤷🏾‍♀️.

A rant about predatory auto insurance feature: 1. As a new driver and fairly new grad, I opted into #Snapshot from Progressive. What a monumental mistake that was. The app wasn’t only invasive of my digital life, it invaded devices nearby too

I joined the bandwagon and I’m reading #Strangers by Belle Burden. The beginning of her book sounds eerily similar to my life a little over 12 years ago. My then fiancé broke off our engagement just a day after professing his unending love. The only thing I got after was ‘you did nothing wrong.’🤷🏾‍♀️

Pictured below are some mid-century examples of àdìrẹ eleko (starch-resist), àdìrẹ alabere (stitch-resist), àdìrẹ oniko (tying raffia around the cloth, sometimes with small seeds or stones to create a pattern), and even hand painted cloth. The last really turns cloth into art.

Going to small-owned businesses is sometimes more expensive, but there’s nothing like the intimate experience. I chose to take Vert to groomer in my neighborhood instead of PetSupplies or Petco. I am glad I did, though it costs twice as much.

Last Wednesday, news broke that Prof Biodun Jeyifo, one of Nigeria's "brightest literary minds" (Vanguard NG) passed away in Ibadan at 80 years old. Just over a month before, he'd attended a symposium in his honor, at which he was able to hear and reflect on his impact in African Studies.

My new stamp haul. I’m excited to add Phillis Wheatley stamp to my collection. Fun fact, when I mail people, the stamp I used depends on who they are. I will put Toni Morrison on a card going to a fellow #lit person, and an Underground Railroad stamp for someone who needs the reminder 😉🤷🏾‍♀️

Being able to dress up in the morning and leave the house for work is such an underrated privilege. I WFH (mostly in my pjs) that I didn’t know how much I miss leaving the house. I’m still going to complain about putting makeup on.

Watched a few episodes of ‘She the People.’ Felt queasy the entire time. #TylerPerry wrote an Harvard educated lawyer as a clueless, inept nonentity. #ShethePeople is an unforgivable embarrassment. Black women deserve better.

When I chose to go to grad school, I was told in my ultra conservative Christian community that no man would want to marry me, because educated women are not submissive. Who cares about a man when you can read books? I got a PhD and a man with double doctorate ✌🏾

morality aside: it turns out, as a purely sociological matter, that a politics premised on empowering people who loudly and performatively don't care if discriminated-against Others suffer and die results in surprisingly indiscriminate suffering and death. this needs to be explained to people
