bumping this because the time for writing this has finally come!!!

My latest piece, about the nature of AI and the current war in Iran.

Friends who attend #AARSBL: this year I don’t have the time to submit any proposals given my upcoming dissertation defense. If your session (on any topic related to my work) could use a respondent or moderator or extra panelist, please hit me up! I’d love to still have a reason to attend AAR.

Apostles Creed > Nicene Creed

Thank you so much for remembering this! I also love this prayer card. Technically the term I coined was “liturgay” so the credit of “liturgigay” is all yours!! I love it so much tho!!

I wore my fun bright colored blazer to the Schleiermacher session and everyone else turned around and was like 👀👀👀👀👀 when I walked in

It was so great & I loved it so much!!

In half an hour at #AARSBL25! So excited to present alongside an interreligious panel of queer studies in religion scholars.

Come to our purity culture panel ft. myself & much more cooler scholars. I will be speaking about the connections between Purity Culture, wellness culture today, and racialized environmental violence

Obligatory #aarsbl25 Day 1 Outfit bathroom selfie ❤️
Wearing red for the “Purity Culture in Today’s Political Climate” megapanel seems fitting idk

Low key if anyone wants to share an uber from Boston airport to the Convention Center area-ish (for #aarsbl25) at around 10:30pm today (Friday) lmk!!

As far as I know there isn’t a good public transit option at that hour

Wait I want to hear this convo on Kristi Noem’s aesthetics!!! This is awesome!!

AAR/SBL 2025 Boston - Google My Maps A map of vegan-friendly spots to eat around the conference centre. Green = All Vegan, Blue = Vegan options, Purple = snacks/stores

#aarsbl folks! Slightly embarrassing but plz join my book panel on Sunday 5pm; My brilliant friends & colleagues will discuss the book from the perspectives of #religion & #politics in modern #Asia, #transpacific studies, #decolonial biblical studies, and of course #affecttheory:

#aarsbl2025

Ok here’s one: If I need a break (😴) during the day but can’t make it back to my hotel, I walk to one of the conference hotels right by the CC and hang out on the lobby couches. They’re far more comfy than the hard-backed chairs (or lack of chairs) at the CC usually.

okay, friends, let's do something community-oriented and helpful. #sblaar25 veterans, drop your best conference advice for first-time attendees. be sure to signal boost so folks across bluesky can add on/peruse.

come hang out with me at #AARSBL25 this year in Boston! I'm presenting at 2 sessions alongside some truly incredible scholars and am v excited.

Whether we've met IRL or not, please do reach out if you wanted to grab coffee/meal, take a walk, or meet up at receptions.

Aww thank you!! My Twitter days are long gone but this is a good one

Thank you for reading/ sharing this!!

Ecocide, Imperialism and Palestine Liberation The devastation in Gaza is not just genocide but also ecocide - the intentional destruction of the ecology. Israel’s assault shows how settler-colonial violence is tied to environmental harm, and why ...

"what is unfolding in Gaza is not merely genocide: it is also ecocide—or what some have described as a holocide: the deliberate annihilation of an entire social and ecological fabric." mondoweiss.net/2025/09/ecoc...

In my IRB training the answer would be no, bc you are asking someone a question they can answer in their professional capacity (and not a question about the administrators’ own lives, for instance)
