Teaching a 2.5 year old how to brush their teeth isn’t frustrating at all. Not at all

William James reference. I see what you did there.

To my fellow introverts heading out into the wonderfully social #aar #aarsbl24 #sblaar24 conference, remember: we got this!

Most people are kind, willing to hear about your research, and happy to make connections.

At the age now where I won’t travel without my heating pad.

Won’t be long until it’s bananas and prune juice.

β€œWhere you headed?”

Me: β€œGoing to a religious studies conference.”

β€œOh, are you a pastor?”

Me: β€œNo, I study the cultural history of religion….”

β€œBut do you want to be a pastor? Why else would you study religion?”

If I know @thornthewitch.bsky.social like I think I do, hecklers will be welcome.

Thankful to my parter who’s holding the fort down with our 2 small kids while I head to San Diego #aar #sblaar24 for the conference. I promise I won’t have any fun.

Presenting at 12:30 on Monday at #sblaar24 #aar in the Philosophy of Religions Unit. My paper: β€œAffect Theory, Noise, & Rhythms of Resistance in 1819 New Orleans.” This unit will discuss the relationship between music and philosophy, and various methodological issues that arise from the comparison

So stoked to presenting at both #NAASR @naasr.bsky.social and #aar this coming religious studies conference season. If Sound Studies and its applications in religious studies sounds like a jolly good time, come and heckle me!

Stoked to be presenting in the Philosophy of Religions Unit at #AARSBL2024 #SBLAAR2024 #AARSBL in San Diego. Happy to connect with others, especially if you’re interested in religion, race, music, sound, affect or if you love hi-fives.

A non-alarmist friend of mine told me to make sure my passport is up-to-date in anticipation of the coming political season (if you get my drift). Woah. Shit. #realtalk

One of the happiest things for me since joining Bluesky is the excellent community of thinkers and writers who focus on religion. Ahead of #AARSBL and my trip to San Diego, a short 🧡about my acquiring interests for @uncpress.bsky.social #aar #aar24 /1

Hi Mark. Headed to AAR and would love to connect. I’m working on a project related to Religion, Race, and Sound in late colonial and early American New Orleans. Maybe a quick coffee? Writing my dissertation as we speak.

Go Heels!

@thepressbox.bsky.social I don’t watch cable news. But I do listen to your podcast.

The Oxygen of Amplification New Data & Society report recommends editorial β€œbetter practices” for reporting on online bigots and manipulators; interviews journalists on accidental amplification of extreme agendas

Let's talk about how to report on right-wingers without amplifying their hateful rhetoric. Far-right extremists count on YOU to spread their messages for them. Here's a thread of resources.
