I won’t forget the heartless cowards who remain silent & unbroken as Israel commits genocide. I pray that you’re just speaking in other spaces, but many of you hide behind the comforts of empire and flake on doing the bare minimum. You are responsible for this. We all are.

an essay on u.s. empire and the cardboard box, starting with operation babylift and the war in vietnam—thanks in advance for reading!! (also dm me for the free access link if needed)

I ended up deeply disliking red white and royal blue instead of thinking it would mid like I expected :( it felt like watching a lifetime movie and/or a campaign ad :(((

Being rampantly misogynist and anti-communist undercuts your movie’s “bombs are bad” message actually! I already knew USians’ knowledge of pacific history was abysmal but I’m astounded at how many people cannot analyze beyond plot :)

Me and Aanchal Saraf on Barbenheimer, sex, and nuclear weapons, on CNN Opinion.

a quick read to bring in the weekend: Rebecca H. Hogue and I wrote about how the “atomic age” was full of actual barbenheimers and why nolan’s film is formally and aesthetically gross!

So grateful to be on this stellar panel at #NAISA2023 !

So excited to be omw to Tkaronto for NAISA! If you’re feeling energized enough to attend a Friday 8 am panel, come see me, Rebecca H. Hogue 🍉🇵🇸🍉🇵🇸🍉🇵🇸 Kristin Oberiano have a collective conversation about Demilitarizing Difference: Race, Racisms, and Writing in the Pacific 💙

He has that sadness in his eyes you only see in yale graduates

'Jordan Neely was arrested 40 times'

Being homeless is illegal in the US. Loitering, pan handling, trespassing, open containers in public, public urination, + dozens of other crimes are used as an excuse to arrest ppl who don't have a place to live and public facilities to use.

I’ve been accused of wanting boring gifts by my teen cousin (who got me for secret santa and my wish list was just an immersion blender) and now my parents (who don’t think a humidifier is a good gift to celebrate me finishing the phd). what can I say I just want to nest!!

Had a chance to read through this fabulous issue this morning 💕 the special section is full of gems
