Disabled people have been right about almost everything that’s happened over the last five years. People don’t listen to us because they don’t think of us as real people. We’re invisible (at best) and completely disposable (at worse). We are the canaries - and we are trying to warn you. Listen.

The following is a recruitment letter for an IRB approved research project I'm doing on disabilities and masculinity, along with an alt-text summary. Please share with anyone you know who might be interested in participating. #academia #disability #masculinity #gender

My name is Kyle Callen, and I am a disabled sociologist. My research seeks to know more about men with disabilities, impairments, and/or chronic illnesses and their understandings of and experiences with masculinity throughout their lives. I invite anyone with a disability, impairment, or chronic illness who identifies as male to participate in an interview with me (either in person, via Zoom, or by phone). You will be asked to talk about the relationships between disability, impairment, chronic illness, and masculinity across different stages of your life. Privacy and anonymity will be ensured through the use of pseudonyms. You can stop the interview, refuse to answer any questions you aren’t comfortable answering, and ask to be removed from the study at any time. Interviews will be audio recorded, transcribed for analyses, and will last anywhere from an hour to 90 minutes. If you're interested in participating, my email is Kyle.L.Callen-1@ou.edu. I look forward to hearing from you!

So, where are the Blacks for Trump? A cabinet should represent and reflect its people. This collection resembles an exclusive country club.

Photos of Trump nominees, nearly all white, no Blacks named so far.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

Post from Latino pollster Mike Madrid:

“Doing some research for an upcoming article on the last “mass deportation” of Mexicans during the 1930’s.

Over half of those deported were US citizens.”

A lot of the positions people like RFK jr. take (anti-vax, anti-pasteurization etc.) get described as “controversial.” They’re not. There is no controversy. This is long-settled science. The correct term is “stupid.”

A few years ago, while teaching at a small country school, I was listening to a podcast during my plan and came across this motto. It knocked me off my feet. I was teaching students who didn’t believe that college was a path. “Don’t take choices away from future you.”

Anyone who thinks "America" needs "Jesus" has never read the Constitution or the Bible. The notion of a "Christian government" is as heretical as it is unconstitutional.

Blue sky feels amazing but also terrifying. It’s a blue dot heaven. But my state superintendent did just create a department of “Religious Liberty and Patriotism”. So it also may be the reason I lose my teaching certificate.

To be fair, if Trump is limited to men who haven't sexually any assaulted women, he's only got Lindsey Graham, left.

Did I pick my #PWHL team because of its logo? Yes. Did I also pick it because it looks like a quidditch team logo? Also yes. I’m so excited for this season! Let’s go ladies!

The more I hear different silver bullet explanations as to how/why Trump got elected, the more I think we need to embrace what intersectional scholars and activists have LONG preached: Capitalism has ALWAYS been intertwined with racism, patriarchy, and other forms of oppression.

The problem with audiobooks is that, when the inevitable spicy scene shows up, you're just trying to do a spreadsheet while a narrator gently whispers in your ear about dicks.
