The curse of an academic: I promised stuff. Now it seems I'll have to deliver.

It’s always “Ladies, if you are alienated by overwork, drop out of the public sphere and become a tradwife” and never “Ladies, if you are alienated by overwork, form a union.”
If you wondered why the EU is ignoring protests in #Serbia, look no further. The EU (ofc in agreement with Serbia's corrupt regime, how else) has declared the Jadar mining project strategic. This is bound to devastate an entire region, in the name of "green transition," which is anything but.

Centrists always tell the left that they shouldn’t emphasize the existemce of social injustices, because it “gives ammunition to far right” or “upsets potential voters”. But fighting social injustice is partly so hard because people have been told these are things of the past and no longer exist.
Submissions for our upcoming special issue "Feminism, Antifeminism, and the Mobilization of Regret," are due May 1, 2025! Check out the full call at signsjournal.org/for-authors/...
Recently, I’ve been really pushing back on the framing that all of this is “backlash” to #MeToo. Because the misogyny came first. When we call it backlash, we’re starting the story in the middle, which allows the perpetrators to cast themselves as victims.
Here are 4 calls for grant proposals. I will add to the comments. If you dreamt about fighting anti-gender movement, here is your chance to make it happen. #academiamatters

It's a strange experience rereading Weeks' The World We Won immediately after Butler's Who's Afraid of Gender. And it really made me realize I need to focus a chapter in Anti-Gender Talk on how knowledge of diff ways to live is targeted not bc they fear influence but bc they fear thinkability.
I'm reading a book on qual. interviewing in prep for one of my future courses and spending most of the time disagreeing with the authors. Funny how, after some 100 interviews or so, one comes to hold fierce opinions on how interview questions should be formulated. :)
Well, the Balkans are strong in the curse-speak for good reasons. I'm sure we can provide this service for all in need. Borrow at will!
Laura Jedeed@laurajedeed.bsky.social · 2y agoWe need to invent new curse words. Stronger ones. Obscenities that rend time and space I am simply not going to make it through this historical period with just the curse words currently available

Writing progress today. -14 words in 45 minutes. And I'm quite devastated to report that removing the sentence I adored (bc how often do you get to use alliteration in academic writing: don't you just love the sound of 'tropes, tactics and targets'!?!) made the text better.
