New article out in Journal of Sex Research: Using surveys & interviews, we show BDSM communities function as spaces for connection, support, identity validation, & growth. It’s almost like ppl build community wherever they’re allowed to be themselves.😲 www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

PSA: To young black folks discovering old clips of Gene Wilder in blackface in Stir Crazy & Billy Crystal as Sammy Davis Jr. I’m not here for your fake outrage when you let your white cosplay socialists friends run up in our black churches & disrespect our elders in the name of “genocide.”🙄🙄🙄

Peace 💜

😂 it’s true though - NC weather is so fickle!

You know who really has a good vantage on what universities can and should be? Faculty. Not always the organizational structure and operation, because that's not the job, But what it takes to educate? Yep. Yet the overwhelming media coverage is by and about ppl w very little to no experience.

Students from UNCW’s Social Sciences Alliance asked me to attend their meeting to talk about my work, in honor of BHM. 😃 It was a nice discussion and, at the end, they gave me roses 🌹I don’t have a small vase but this tumbler - a gift from a former student - works just fine 🥰🌹💜

i think jesse jackson was one of the most important american political figures of the post-war era and i think that his 1984 and 1988 campaigns for the democratic nomination still have a great deal to teach about forging a path to a more egalitarian world. RIP.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson, a towering civil rights leader and two-time presidential candidate, has died. He was 84.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison. Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water. Our priorities are so fucked.
