I started designing my stickers 2 years ago!! My shop will reopen soon with new designs but had to share this classic #EducatedChingona
Last minute addition to my teaching load for next semester: an asynchronous/online Latin American film class. What are some cool assignments I can do that do not require discussion posts?!?!?

This hallway at the NIH used to have posters of women and POC scientists but they just got taken down.
But somehow this MLK poster made the cut.

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.
I'm trying to save them.
You can find the deleted docs at CDCGuidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

New: CPS confirmed that ICE agents visited Hamline Elementary in Back of the Yards Friday in Chicago.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
It was secret service, not ice. Secret Service said they were investigating a threat, and responded to a house. They said they were then told the person they wanted to talk to was at Hamline Elementary School, but they did not enter the school.

MAYOR RAS J. BARAKA’S STATEMENT ON ICE RAID ON NEWARK BUSINESS ESTABLISHMENT
Read here: newarknj.gov/news/mayor-ras-…
I’m just an academic in SoCal affected by yet another fire asking those academics with upcoming deadlines for CFPs/abstracts to PLEASE extend them! Trying to survive here 🥴 (ps: image of the air quality where I live today)
Would love to stay up to date with a bunch of you! 🦋 account: academicmami.bsky.social
I can talk about the money & time wasted due to the Republican block of Parole in Place. But it all seems insignificant compared to the heartbreak we feel for my husband. 34+ ys in this country, married to a U.S. citizen, parent of 2 citizens, & condemned to live in the shadows.
Academics, what are some iPad apps you use? Feeling like an old person asking this but I only use my personal iPad to watch stuff 🫣 my university bought me a mini one & I want to actually use it for work stuff
Really thinking I should just quit this tenure track job and open a taco truck called the “taco track” instead
I can only deal with one political drama at a time & House of the Dragon is still on for a few more weeks
¿Algún cuento de una autora latinoamericana (de preferencia que no sea mexicana) que me recomienden? Me falta lectura para una semana de mi clase de literatura hispanoamericana escrita por mujeres y busco algo nuevo ☺️

Give me the precedented times I’m tired of the unprecedented ones.
I’ve been reading a lot of your responses & questions, to answer a few: I found an amazing supporting advisor, advocated for my rights, finished in 5 yrs, got a tenure track position. As a prof, I founded a support group for parenting students at my campus.
