I asked my students to listen to the IF BOOKS COULD KILL podcast episode on 'The Body Keeps the Score' so we could explore the way the hosts do a rhetorical analysis, and it ended up being such a good source, but also like, the information is HEAVY and they looked at me like it was NBD??

Anyone else teach undergrad? It's my first time back at the undergrad level in years, and I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone. I assign one book to read a MONTH in the semester, and apparently that's too much reading for 300 level Eng?

I'm reading the Routledge Research Companion on Popular Romance and I love that @emselinger.bsky.social and @profromance.bsky.social cite Gardner on page 2 to set the stage before even defining the genre.

I have my first academic conference presentation tomorrow, and even though I've been a keynote speaker at book conferences, done a BBC podcast, have articles printed in Writer magazine, etc., speaking as an academic vs. a writer has me throwing up. Twice.

I feel like all of my reading for my comp exams start with the same hidden message: “Have you heard the good word from our lord and savior Karl Marx today?”

I'm working on a research project called Identity & Politics in the age of AI, and I'm thinking about how approx 66% of users don't trust AI , but the trust we have in Google is astronomical, when they frequently manipulate their algorithm and the FTC said they could. www.ftc.gov/sites/defaul...

If Threads is where I post unhinged hot takes at 5AM, is this where I share resources that I'm thinking about for my race and culture studies reading? And where do I post about my books because I feel like that was the whole point of social media for me back in 2012. 🫠

For my PhD coursework this semester, I'm focusing a lot on public writing. Part of my graded portfolio will be a regular log of public writing in a journal format. The best way I know how to stay accountable and stay on top of assignments is to...well, make it public. profnishasharma.substack.com

It’s been a journey these last few months listening to my body and just doing what I’m capable of instead of pushing for more. The guilt for “underperforming” is real but sometimes you don’t have a choice.

It’s academic baby’s first attempt at reading Can the Subaltern Speak by G Spivak and I may need to YouTube the hell out of this to figure out what she’s talking about 🤦🏽‍♀️

I’m reading new-to-me theory paired with a romance novel every week. It’s incredible, but also my friends are already exhausted bc I want to talk about these moments of inspiration all the damn time, and they have no idea what I’m talking about. My poor prof has to get my verbal vomit too. 🤦🏽‍♀️

There is a *lot* of love studies research happening in Australia at the moment, and this is a pretty good write-up of some of it, covering a lot of different disciplinary approaches.

theguardian.com

Love story: Australian researchers becoming world leaders in the study of romantic love

It feels instinctive but research reveals that many aspects of romantic love we take for granted are socially constructed

I spent years in corporate DEI work but what’s hard for me to come to terms with now as a PhD student in English & Soc Justice is that in praxis there is a binary response to a theoretical problem but that is so far from the truth. Some of these problems do not and may not have a “right” solution.😭
