This is what he said

The Self & Identity Preconference provides a forum for discussion and investigation of the complexity of the individual and the collective self. This year's preconference introduces a special focus on activism and allyship, highlighting factors facilitating the formation of activist and ally identities and barriers to identifying as activists or allies. This preconference will explore the impact of context in shaping activist identification and consider the role of the current socio-political climate on our ability to advocate for our "selves" and for others. In addition to several speakers, the preconference will also include presentations by scholarly award winners, a poster session, an early-career data blitz, and a mentoring/networking session.

Announcing SPSP's 2026 Self & Identity precon (bit.ly/4mn2WDT), which will have a timely focus on activist and ally identities. We have a phenomenal set of speakers (Linda Tropp! Kim Rios! Lucy De Souza! Teri Kirby! Dan McAdams!) and are accepting data blitz and poster submissions until Oct 23!

Thoughts on Silence When those in power remain silent about abuse and those who commit and enable it, they become part of that abuse.

Thanks to a comment on a 2 1/2 year old post, I'm getting back to the blog by focusing on our complicity in abuse when we remain silent.

Terrible Gallup poll today. Lots of bad anti-trans sentiment, but this one really blew my mind and should be VERY eye opening to our LGB folks:

America is about to cross back over into being gay or lesbian is something that is caused externally (and therefore "fixable" with conversion therapy)

Bibi is good people. Her gear is top shelf. Check her site out, buy her stuff if you need it, & share. You'll be helping a disabled person survive.

I'm currently in a battle of wills with a #goldendoodle that's super cute, really smart, & extremely persistent. I can survive "just 5 more minutes" with an itchy nose while getting a brain #MRI (IYKYK). I'm admittedly biased, but I give myself 60-40 odds of winning this... eventually.

Having a chronic illness is like having a really expensive, time consuming hobby that you never signed up for.

We aren't so different from other people who have their obsessions, except ours isn't by choice.
