Last day of #ADDA5: #dcmjournal co-EiC Jan Chovanec on replatforming of TV cooking shows; social media editor @laurafilardollamas.bsky.social on Goncharov CoP on Tumblr; and EB member @jaimackenzie.bsky.social on #dadlife on instagram

Just about ready to talk about seahorses and dad bods at the ADDA 5 Conference in Tilburg (Approaches to Digital Discourse Analysis). I'll be presenting a case study from my Dadlife project exploring fathers' constructions of familial roles and practices on Instagram.

Huge thankyou from me also to @nounfraze.bsky.social & @helensauntson.bsky.social for organising ‘Marking Milestones in Language, Gender & Sexuality Studies’. This was such an important day for taking stock of where we’ve come from, where we are, and directions we might take in the future. Onward!

I will, thanks!

I’m with ALCS, but what is PLR?

Got my first decent payout from ALCS today. If you haven’t already, sign up!! It’s super simple.

I suppose one way to start here is to share a new publication. Here it goes:

'‘I am still unsure’ - Spontaneous expressions of vaccine indecision on Mumsnet'

I am looking forward to reconnecting with my LaGS family in May! Registration is now open and the programme looks fabulous with @jaimackenzie.bsky.social and Jane Sunderland (my former PhD supervisor) as plenary speakers!
Thank you @nounfraze.bsky.social for all your work in organising this.

Sharing this post from a few months ago for the benefit of queer linguists new to Bluesky! Do get in touch if you have a book proposal to discuss 📚

Speaking as an expert on transphobia and the gender critical movement:

Block them. Hide replies. Report them. Do not "debate" them.

The fact that they are campaigning so hard against blocking and in favour of debate/their right to harassment should tell you - it serves their interests to engage.

Thank you!

Me too please! 🙏

Me please! I’ve dabbled 😉
