  1. Time is running out to save an innocent father. Texas has set #InnocenceProject client Robert Roberson’s execution for Oct. 17, for a crime that never even occurred.

    In September, we learned that the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals denied Robert’s appeal and motion to stay his Oct. 17 execution. This decision was made despite the new medical and scientific evidence that proves Robert’s daughter, Nikki, died of natural causes, not from any inflicted injury, let alone a homicide.

  2. Robert Roberson is an #InnocenceProject client facing execution on Oct. 17 despite no crime having occurred. Robert would be the first person in U.S. history to be executed based on the debunked “shaken baby syndrome” hypothesis. With less than 90 days to #SaveRoberson , join me and #TheInnocenceProject in signing this petition to #SaveRoberson. Your voice could make all the difference:

  3. #innocenceproject had links to put this man's case forward on Elon's hell site but screw Elon, I'm posting Marcellus Williams' case here instead.

  4. Me: Create a #wanghong / #internetcelebrity; it can be more-than-human.

    Students:
    - Llama cafe
    - Lidl
    - Tea house on a mountain
    - Foreign lady who loves #China
    - Tiny pig
    - Bot network
    - Virtual idol
    - Haunted hotel

    Many people wanted more-than-humans. Had to highlight difference between wanghong as 'unique' internet celebrity / #influencer vs #wanghong as repeatable #vibe #aesthetic

  5. Starting "Make-A-#Wanghong Company" (#internetcelebrity) #teaching activity in seminars. The students role play running an #influencer management company in #China and make a strategy document.

    One of the readings I ask them to do is, "Historicising Wanghong economy" by Xiaofei Han:

    The activity is inspired by Crystal Abidin's teaching and extended to be a multi-week project:

  6. Co-authorship practices: Just about to submit a co-authored paper with two friends, we're examining the idea of 网红城市 wanghong chengshi, or internet celebrity cities, in China. The paper develops the term #wanghong #urbanism (internet celebrity urbanism) and the idea of "urban-digital spectacle" through three case studies. We all did equal work, so what to do about naming order?

    We drew the names out of a bag ☺️

  7. @jaztrophysicist thanks for this. I mentioned my interest in #WoodMeadows and she recommended a book called Tir by Carwyn Graves, which is a stomping read. I'm not 100% onboard with everything he writes but still very relevant for ecology and conservation work carwyngraves.com/tir-the-story

  8. Emptied two boxes of envelopes. Ran out of flag stamps, fruit stamps, and manatee stamps. Had to resort to T-Rex stamps and Raven Story black and gold stamps. Missed the postal carrier with my most recent batch, will hit mailbox later. Envelope glue tastes nasty. #Vote #voteforward #votefwd #vote2024 #uspol

  9. Going to the post office later today to drop off the 26 I've downloaded, written, addressed, and stamped since yesterday. #voteforward #votefwd #USpol #vote2024 #VoteBlue

  10. Yesterday's batch of #voteforward letters is done. Gotta put the last six in the mailbox. I've downloaded another 20. I gotta go make tea.

  11. Dowmloaded a batch of 20 #voteforward letters this morning. 14 have been written out and mailed. 5 are prepped and stamped. The last will be written tomorrow morning. Probably going to do another 20.

    Getting tired of flag stamps. Ran out of fruit stamps. Still got manatees. Debating using my last four Tyrannosaurus stamps but I dunno who'd open a handwritten letter from a stranger with a predatory dinosaur stamp.

  12. If you've ever wondered how many #voteforward letters can be written, addressed, and stamped leaning on a hardcover cookbook while a sixteen year old cat dozes on your lap before the cat decides she wants a change of venue...

    Seven. The answer is seven.

  13. *eyes stack of #VoteForward letters*

    'Are you ready to vote? I vote because'...

    Spite? Am I allowed to say I'm voting out of pure unadulterated *spite* towards everyone and everything who has ever tried for any reason to make it harder for people in general (and in my case, women in particular) to vote? Because it really wouldn't be inaccurate...

    *sighs, goes back to writing about relatives who fought Nazis for future generations' freedom instead*

  14. Got a batch of letters going out to Ohio tonight for #voteforward . Is it sad that this is the most handwriting I've done at one time in years?

  15. A heads up to anybody who's trying to buy fabric online:

    Twice in the past three days I have gone to Joann.com looking for wide fabric to use on the back of a quilt. Twice, I have found wide fabric that says on the web site that it is in stock, and ordered two yards thereof.

    Twice, after going through the whole checkout process, I have suddenly received email messages saying 'Uh Oh! Item(s) from (order) have been canceled'.

    FIX YOUR INVENTORY DATABASE YOU NIMRODS.

  16. I can't get #prescription #catfood in anything smaller than a full sized bag or a flat of 24 cans and I cannot justify buying that much #petfood at a time just for a taste test. I cannot fimd a place near me that sells #royalcanin prescription diet and even then I expect they'd still insist that I buy a whole flat or a full sized bag at once.

    Do I have any alternatives? How can I take care of my #cat's kidney needs if she won't eat the stuff?

    5/5

  17. K9 ODIN was located & found by Camryn Escoto (seen in the pic with Odin).
    As she returned home, she found him in her backyard, happily playing with her German Shepherd.

    Thank you for sharing/re-tweeting.
