Asked by our employer to post this though I strongly suspect most do not know or care where I work:

#SLP #HigherEd instructors- Please see this #qualitative study on short-term study abroad. Always thrilled to work alongside @kwsaar.bsky.social

Happy #nationalcatlady day. Late to the club but glad to be a member. #caturday

SIGH FROM DEPTHS OF SOUL. It's so straightforward it is THE go to for teaching why papers get retracted.

Tears to laughter whiplash twice for "Princess Chicken Nugget" and the ferocious bobcat. What would we do without dogs?

A lunar halo takes up the night sky

Beautiful lunar halo tonight!

📱 Do you work in the tech industry? 📱

Do you have knowledge of developing healthcare technologies?

We need 3 people from the tech industry to join our online co-design research as part of my PhD, utilizing smart speakers and automatic speech recognition (ASR) for speech and language therapy.

It was really beautiful tonight.

If you need a good news follow, I highly recommend @weratedogs.com. Look at this pure joy

Welcoming @natfdouglas.bsky.social to the world of #BSKYSpeechies & #SLT & #AcademicSky

A nice Valentine's Day read for #SLP and #SLT with interests in #stuttering.

Posting this call for help in managing useless but harmful reviews of #qualitative #research.

Rooting for the #Eagles and also somehow for #TaylorSwift. But honestly, I'm mostly here for the #SuperbOwl posts.

Think I'll share this each time a colleague gets damaging feedback from a reviewer who doesn't understand qualitative research.

Aside from John and Jon, I can’t imagine what they are coming up with. But I couldn’t have imagined many of the Laura attempts either!

Keeping my collection of not quite Laura cups together. A little more #sociolinguistics data collection in the wild.

Wow!

Would have missed out if you hadn't told us to read it! Thanks

Loving the mohawk, or lohawk I guess.

The art you share is a bright spot in my social media experience. As someone with a limited art background, I'm so thankful for the exposure to art/artists.

What a great day!

Listen, thanks for lending us your weather. I promise we all treated it with the absolute reverence it deserved. Just absolute statewide giddiness. And, in Louisiana tradition, we showed it a good time.

About an inch or two of snow on Bourbon St. and New Orleanians are making the most out of

It’s so much fun. Really magical when it snows in LA!

I just hope both teams have a really bad time.

Yes, and StoryGraph is what I landed on after it was recommended! I haven't put it to much use yet- my job is getting in the way of reading- but I do like it so far.
