A few weeks ago, I began curating a starter pack of queer scholars/activists. It’s grown so quickly and it’s been fabulous to engage with many different people doing queer work. Please join and follow our curious, joyous, reflective, and passionate community.

It’s depressing how relevant that first paragraph is still today. Just change 1994 to 2024 and anti-gay to anti-trans.
We walked down the old Olympic bobsleigh track in the snow. Core life memory 🥲

Mostar and Sarajevo are two of the most beautiful and welcoming places I’ve ever visited. And both such important historical sites too.
Amazing Chris!
I saw a thread by in Archaeology that pulled together all Starter Packs into one handy thread for new people joining.
Not sure if it's been done for Law yet, so thought I'd get a thread going with a few that I've come across.
Please do share & add any other Starter Packs that I've missed.

How good is lifting weights for channeling rage? No-one can judge you for being aggressive, angry, loud and red-faced. Slightly different if it’s a faculty meeting.
Looking for #LawSky friends from Australia? Here is the Starter Pack for #AusLaw Academics. More added daily 😁
