I’m so happy to announce that I am officially a PhD candidate! It feels like this day was never gonna get here but it has and I am so excited to be entering this next phase of the PhD journey! #PhDCandidate #Blackademic #OnTheRoadToDrFN

Just sent my dissertation proposal to my advisor. Holy shit. #PhDStudent #Blackademic #AlmostACandidate

Idk what academic needs to hear this but “professionalism” is just white supremacy coded in academia (and other corporate environments) and your using that as a critique or weakness of students of color is bullshit and subtle racism.

I started my comps yesterday. Somehow I actually wrote a 17-page paper in 12 hours. And now I have to do that three more times. Pray for me. lol

My poster was accepted into IASR! I’m so excited!!! #PhDStudent #Sexologist #Researcher

I'm on a plane back from a conference and watching A Goofy Movie, and since media studies is on the brain, I'm gonna do a thread on how Blackness and Black culture are portrayed in A Goofy Movie. Buckle in!

It’s so wild how quickly motivation comes and goes. Wednesday I was a writing machine for this paper. Today it’s like pulling teeth. #PhDLife #WritingStruggles

Nothing makes me want to rethink being a professor than reading reflections.

Hey there! I am looking for participants for a research project I am conducting. I am looking for Black women aged 18 and older who watch porn to participate in an online, anonymous survey.

And in a shocking turn of events I’m actually early for class. Who is she?!

Idk what it is but traveling makes me so productive. On my first flight of the day I’ve read three journal articles already.

Special shout out to me yall. I did not get my paper accepted at ICA. lol This is the third rejection this week. I’m on a roll.

The winter term starts tomorrow and I am the instructor of record for WGS201: Intro to Queer Studies! I’m so nervous but so excited!

Wishing everyone a wonderful new year! May your papers be written with ease, research projects be completed with no hiccups, and students participating in class! #HappyNewYear

Who should we @ if we have feedback or suggestions for how to improve @bsky.app ??

I have a question for fellow PhD students. On average, how many research projects are you ACTIVELY working on at once?? #AcademicChatter #PhDStudent #PhDLife #AcademicResearcher

As a #Blackademic it is very rare that I feel validated and encouraged about my research, but tonight was not one of those nights. The response to my final presentation for my ethnography class has me so excited to complete this project.

I just want to publicly acknowledge how smart and intelligent my best friend @saeeddabbour.bsky.social is. I enjoy listening to him talk about his research so much. #PhDBesties
