Abandoned my legal academy in canada list plan bc @roojinhabibi.org UOttawa had a better one. Thanks Roojin! She's added the few extras i had. One cannot (yet) convert list ->starter pack. Instead, find her List via her profile, "Pin to Home", it's in yr feeds. Bskylists are all public btw.

My departing remarks, delivered at a farewell event in June 2023. @carolmliao.bsky.social's been trying to get these out of me for a year now.

Policy Options is now on Bluesky. Please add it to your news and commentary feeds.

Hey, I started a Trans Studies starter pack, but it needs more names. I can add them, I think. Here it is, so far: go.bsky.app/UAtsVTH

one of the reasons bluesky works differently is because early users waged a successful fight to get the devs to prioritize safety features to protect communities at risk as a result bluesky now has a suite of controls that i think are unmatched on social media here’s the list, lmk what i’ve missed

It's great to see so many academics and some journalists moving to Bluesky. I think another key to cementing Twitter/X's irrelevance is to get politicians out of there and over here too. Anyone doing a #cdnpoli Starter Pack for politicians?

Critical mass of @theglobeandmail.com journalists are posting on Bluesky now and we have a handy starter pack for yall go.bsky.app/QZnYg2Q

Freshly updated Law Starters. It's a law starter pack for all of us new here and enjoyed Lawtwitter in the before times. To be added, throw me a follow or just ask. Only adding accounts with profiles and posts to mitigate bots. Follow & support each other. go.bsky.app/FFBDDa3

Welcome to bsky Kyle! I've been compiling a list of all Canadian law faculty here - hard to see who the members are, but literally any law faculty, grad student, adjunct or research centre I've been finding as been added to this list. You're on it too now: bsky.app/profile/did:...

Deadline is fast approaching for these two positions at the uOttawa Faculty of Law (Common Law Section): uottawa.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/uOttaw... Specific needs in admin law, constitutional law, commercial law and tax law. Faculty are awesome & Ottawa is a great place to be!

Hello from the other side.

Hopefully the people who run this platform fully understand the many reasons why a mass exodus of people has fled toxic X, and will do their best to ensure this place never becomes anything like that.

I just got here. Tell me who to follow, maybe? 👀
