    Lots of thoughts (and rage) on this but for now I'll just say thank you, thank to the women who are speaking up in an industry where it's still very difficult to do so.

    Sometimes it seems like there is a Specific Things Problem when it’s really a thoughts / feelings problem. Everyone can benefit from spending time with a thoughts and feelings expert if they can (even if you’re not a cat in the trash can)

    Thanks to Jamie J. Zhao and Hongwei Bao for a thorough review of recent literature on queer and sexuality studies in China, along with outlining the theoretical approach and underpinnings of their new series "Queering China: Transnational Genders and Sexualities"!

    Notes from the Field | Jamie Zhao and Hongwei Bao propose “Queer/ing China" to "explore queerness & Chineseness... attuned to the encounters, syntheses, & dissonances of local, transnational, and global queer & feminist studies, knowledge, and movements.”

    A professor just threatened me with police. After BBQ Becky, Permit Patty, Golfcart Gail, and all the memes, we now have Retweet Rachel. Public advisory: don't call the cops on black people for no reason. Black people disagreeing with you on Twitter is not a crime.

    I've recently been using the new "Next Generation" search interface at the National Diet Library, and it's an incredible tool. I've put together a brief overview for scholars of Japan not already familiar with it, and would be happy to hear tips/feedback.🧵 1/15

    Can anyone share their favorite online exhibits/online public history projects/something similar? I'm trying to tune my writing, voice, and restructure this project a bit--and I think what I've got so far is far too academic sounding. Thanks!

    Them: Ok but you're always tired. How much more tired than usual could you be? 🙄 Me: Well I've had a headache for 10 hours, somehow broke a ceramic pot while getting out of a chair, decided to go to bed at 8:30pm and promptly put hand repair cream on my toothbrush. 👍 Them: 😬
