A friend’s students asked me to speak to their Linguistics Club today and between the fact that there’s a linguistics club at a high school 🤩⁉️ and the students being so curious, bright & passionate, it was the best thing I’ve done in months. Can we hurry up & hand the keys over to the kids please?

Just wrapped the last class of Fall 2024! 🥳 Someone asked me recently how long I’ve been a professor, which prompted me to actually figure it out: 15.5 years! It feels like forever & the blink of an eye all at once

It’s officially official! Thank you Gov. Hobbs for spotlighting the Arizonans who made Prop. 139, the Constitutional right to abortion care, possible! There are thousands more who quote couldn’t fit in the rotunda, but every single one of you are part of this historic win 💜

Sincere question: How will we know when it’s safe to leave The Bad Place and not miss out on breaking political news & follow-ups? What metric are folks using to gauge when to delete, or are you not considering that? I’d love to know!
