Some folks might see this and say, a conference well spent! And others might find this deeply triggering. This is why having non-alcohol centered / sober events and spaces at academic conferences are SO important.

“As queer scholars we must prevent the same kind of insular thinking for the future … what would it look like if we centered the most vulnerable of our communities?”

“Queerness consists as a set of literacy events … that constitutes as being a lesbian … queer histories are often difficult to pin down … imagination then is a methodology.”

The Grief of Autoethnography: The Emotional Labor of Naming and the Weight of Calling Out Speak your mind, even if your voice shakes. — Ruth Bader Ginsburg

I've been thinking about how to say all this for a few months, about autoethnography.

I finally found the words: "The Grief of Autoethnography: The Emotional Labor of Naming and the Weight of Doing the Work."

As I get ready for #4C25, I think of @bryanjmccann.bsky.social: “Addiction & suicidal ideation make homes on the pgs of journals & on conference panels. Convention awards ceremonies comprise smiling & applauding colleagues who will look a few secs too long at the bathrobe belt in their hotel room.”

In addiction recovery, staying present anchors the mind, turning chaos into clarity one moment at a time. I am so grateful for my @soberacademics.bsky.social friends. This meeting has been a grounding force amid academia’s toxic social culture & relentless capitalist grind toward productivity. 🙏☕️

There is nothing more exciting than this: when the small chat with the instructor teaching after you turns into that awesome “oh, you too?!” chat about how you’re both in recovery & sober in academia. This is the *magic* of @soberacademics.bsky.social - it’s a language of the heart like no other!

HALT: means never get too Hungry, too Angry, too Lonely, or too Tired. Each of these conditions can gravely impact our experiences not only as humans in today’s society, but especially as sober persons in academia. Come join us! *TONIGHT* 8:30 PM ET. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

Many of us have found our own path to recovery, but Sober Academics is a place for us to come together as a sober community in academia. Every story counts! *TONIGHT* 8:30 PM ET — @soberacademics.bsky.social See flyer ⬇️ #soberacademics #recoverycommunity #soberinacademia #academia #academiclife

In these unprecedented moments, we can slow down and take deep breaths. Sober Academics is a great place to find community. *Meeting NOW* @soberacademics.bsky.social Come breathe with us! 🧘🏽‍♂️ #soberacademics #recoverycommunity #soberinacademia #academia #academiclife

I know that sober meetings have been the only space lately where I can decompress and reset. I’m grateful for @soberacademics.bsky.social and my peers there. It’s a meeting I look forward to each week! Come join us! Starts in a few minutes! #soberacademics #recoverycommunity
