Been years since I've been really engaged in Twitter, but with today's EM news it's time to move. This place I've sometimes loved is about to get gross. @joinmastodon is relatively easy to use. I'm on the instance called scholar dot social: scholar.social/@allistelling
Taking a page from @ArionneNettles's book, here's another thing you might enjoy at #pcaaca2024 tomorrow, 1.15pm: "“Curating Digital Stakeholders: Social Media, Georgia Politics, & the Classroom” A discussion about my class on civic engagement, social media, and state politics.
Getting ready to take a 15 min walk down to Giordano's (giordanos.com/locations/prud…) in hopes that it can satisfy my Chicago pizza curiosity. Happy to have anyone join if you're up for a walk across the river. #pcaaca2024

Also a repost from earlier: Is anyone at #pcaaca2024 also a Mastodon user? I like connecting with folks a lot, but haven't been on Twitter since the Great Pollution and would prefer connecting on the fediverse of anyone's there (me over there: scholar.social/@allistelling)

Repping my union (@UCWGA3265) at #pcaaca2024 today. No presentation today, just meeting folks, listening, and counting how many times I hear "I have a comment and a question" :) There's a dance party here tonight?!?

Happy to finish my first of 2 #pcaaca2024 presentations just moments ago (on why we should be resisting #genAI, at least in the classroom). Happy to connect w new friends and colleagues here in #Chicago.

Just had an #earlyvote at Selena S. Butler park in #FultonCounty, #Atlanta. No line. walked right in. #ATLiens, get out there and use your voice. Not a fan of parties, but the choice for equity, accountability, prison reform, and voting & reproductive rights are pretty clear.

Damn it. For years my teaching, scholarly, & artistic tastes have orbited meta topics. I teach a class on metanarrative techniques. Now FB, whom I think is evil, changes its name to Meta? Srsly? Thx Mark, for making ev'thing I like worse after you touch it. #DeleteFacebook
Haven't tweeted for months, but I wanted to narrate a reflection about #September11th as many people are. On that day, I was a public high school English teacher in my 3rd year of teaching, and my dad was a commercial airline pilot away on a trip. [thread]

This might be a couple tweets long .. It's disgusting what some conservatives are doing and saying to @GaSecofState. Disgusting. And his comments so far are honorable and fair, and he's responded to elections results in GA appropriately ..

.. so, thanks @GaSecofState for doing that. For certifying and defending an election that didn't go the way of your party. BUT, can we just pause a moment and consider how low the bar has been buried in the ground? Somehow I feel like I need to thank this guy ..
