@anastasiawils Good for you. Teaching grad students currently. Same thing. I love teaching UGs, but older students bring a great deal more to the table.

Which jazz artist's entire discography would you choose to have with you if you could only pick one?

@jana_bacevic So those of us with disabilities can type friggin acronyms.

@anastasiawils My composter has a DeCay brown snake in it. That is its real name. It is a small harmless snake that eats slugs and worms. And it only appears for the women in the family. No matter how hard my dad and I work to meet it, it just stays hidden. The snake is now part of the family.

@FatihKirsanli @AFEEconomics Congratulations!

@jamiekmccallum Focusing on caring labor under capitalism is to only focus on care as a commodity. The leads to all kinds of twisted analyses depending on the economic perspective employed. It also leads to theoretical incoherence in much empirical work. This is too complex a topic for a tweet.

Why has “care” become a defining idiom of left politics? Are the “politics of care” or the “care economy” or “care infrastructure” useful ways of rendering revolutionary possibilities? Writing a book on essential workers made me reevaluate these questions. Thread time!
