@Chaco_arch This reminds me of some obsidian we've both been thinking about.

@Chaco_arch My grandparents had rye bread shipped from Chicago to Wyoming for years!

We are allowed to set some boundaries about what we do and do not consider acceptable or productive dialogue, particularly when we are trying to rectify some long-standing inequities in archaeology.

@Chaco_arch Make memes?

@Chaco_arch Didn't the talk get recorded over a month ago? If so, someone must have seen it.

@BarbVossArchaeo Absolutely! An organization's prerogative to draw boundaries around what it considers acceptable is not the same as the government's responsibility to free speech. We have no obligation to cater to "both sidesism".

#SAA86thOnline #SAA2021 SAA is a juried conference; presenting is a privilege not a right. There is a difference between fostering dialogue and providing a platform for anti-indigenous propaganda. docs.google.com/document/d/176…

@precatlady You might not believe this but I've never been in a Costco.

@ValerieBondura All of my paper notes have SLOW and BREATHE written out about every three sentences, haha. It helps.

take a cue from Aaron Rodgers' Jeopardy! podium notes to himself and add these to your notes for your next class discussion, conference, etc. a reminder to "speak less" and "slow down", especially if you, like me, hold an identity that often takes up a lot of space.

@JuengstExplores I'm in the same boat. It was a lot harder to get time off for the conference when it wasn't in person this year, too.

@ArchHelmer That's almost exactly why I joined Twitter too! Tired of always being the last to hear about something.

Apparently it is my 2 year twitter anniversary which means two years ago I made an academic account to try and keep up with the SAA 2019 shitshow. Perhaps says something about about the org that this is why I started this network of peers... #MyTwitterAnniversary

@ValerieBondura This might finally be the summer I embrace my long suppressed desire to wear denim short shorts, if that fits with the theme.

y'all know we're doing hot girl summer this year, right? stock up on your crop tops and sundresses now! all ages, all genders! hot girl summer for everyone!

@ecreetz @EMBODYMUSEUM @seebeegeebees I just took a browse thru their Insta account. Problematic ethnographic gaze for days.....

@Chaco_arch @dwmixter Michelle, Crow Canyon can probably connect you with this. Tim and I both have Adobe Suite licenses, and we will probably drop one of them once we are all back in the field.

@Tine_Rass That makes me envious because I generally get to play "Indiana Jones and the poorly preserved ephemeral hearth, bisected by a rodent and unnoticed by a student till halfway gone."

1/ CW: harassment, thread -- 📢📢This morning, my articles about #harassment in #archaeology were released by @CambUP_Archaeo and @SAAorg. Both articles are published full Open Access so that they are available to all #archaeologists. Please share! cambridge.org/core/blog/2021…

@LMcAtackney Sending this to all my kombucha-devotee friends. They need to know.

@en_dash Thanks for the sense of perspective, in more ways than one.

Got stuck right before it hit Glen Canyon Dam. Bummer.

@JakobSedig @en_dash @glitch @BostonHarborNow Got stuck just before it hit Glen Canyon Dam. Bummer.
