One thing I’ve noticed about the SWer community I’ve been exposed to thus far is that a significant proportion of us have advanced degrees and/or are academic adjacent, literate in various social theory, etc. I find this so interesting. Anyone else?
A reminder that I made a starter pack for philosophers who work on intimacy and relationships: go.bsky.app/AjUr2VS let me know if you want to be added! Please share.
It feels like we’re increasingly gaslit these days, but what does it mean to be gaslit, and can this happen unintentionally? @isobellogan.bsky.social hopes to find out 👇🏻

Happy Valentines, Galentines, Palentines, and All The Other Love-entines Day!

We’d never be able to teach classes like this in a UK university. Such a shame!
Help us make hope normal again.
