My tumblr keeps randomly following people, so if I follow and unfollow, that's why - sorry!



Sociology, positive psychology, funk, salsa, basketball, Pokemon, Revenge, Hannibal, Scandal, and Sleepy Hollow. ACAB :) Be my friend if you live in the DC area.



Before you follow: This is my personal blog. Read the info below and/or my about me.

Since enough people have asked, I don't follow back, but that doesn't mean I don't like you/want to interact with you (I truly am interested in other people). It's just hard to interact with thousands of people. If you will get upset about complaints about smokers, you probably shouldn't follow.



Note: I don't care if people or posters that I reblog or quote are problematic, because I am endorsing ideas, frameworks, and methodology - not people. I'm not into the binaristic thinking prevalent in "tumblr SJ" that figures are simply amazing or pure evil. I value empirical social scientific research - and while researcher biases certainly affect their research - it doesn't make their ideas automatically invalid.



Don't give me unsolicited advice!



Note: this is a safe space for me - first and foremost - as it is my personal blog. If you think oppression or lived experience is something you can make into a debate, get off of my blog



If you follow me, I'd like if you introduced yourself - if you want to. I like talking to my followers.



If you're expecting a 24/7 serious blog, this is not for you. On the other hand, if you're expecting reblogs of text posts and avoiding -isms, it also isn't for you. I am a leftist but I avoid tumblr politics for the most part.

Everything I post about refers to my experience, and more generally, to the US. I've never lived elsewhere and I feel no need to put a disclaimer on what I write because it's my blog?



I post a lot of quotes because they articulate what I believe far better than I ever could. I tag nearly every post, so you shouldn't have a problem finding what you're looking for. I try to use relevant trigger warnings and epilepsy warnings as well. Please message me if you'd like me to tag a trigger for you.



Additionally, if you're some anti-intellectual moron who doesn't understand that many things are academic concepts and not "SJ tumblr" terms - please get off of my blog.



I'm interested in: gender (identity, roles, stereotypes, norms), sexism, misogyny, rape culture, resources for survivors of sexual assault, body positivity, social policy, sociology (broadly), political economy, political theory, languages, philosophy, psychology, education, academia, post-colonialism, racism, oppression, statistics, data viz, history, poetry, minerals, IT, cool gadgets, web design, graphic design, beautiful things and beautiful people, nail art, sculpture, crafting, sex, sexuality, health/fitness, college basketball, Pokemon, Parks and Rec, troll dolls and anything else that's creepy yet endearingly cute.
