Such a pleasure to attend @ZahraStardust’s book event last night at The Common Press. Been far too long since I listened to her talk about her amazing scholarship & activism in person 🩵🩷🤍 Can’t wait to read #IndiePorn (also gutted you can’t see our matching clitorings here!)
Gingrich Can’t Believe Wives Told They Can Vote Differently to Husbands: “How do you run a country where you walk around saying wives should lie to their husbands, husbands should lie to their wives?” asked Gingrich, who cheated on his 1st & 2nd wives 😂

Appealing to colleagues to support @CasaXochiqetzal -a retirement home for #sexworkers in Mexico that I & others visited in 2017. They need funds for their services & their Día de muertos event w/ 200 sex workers. Give if you can via paypal to: [email protected]
@afishley_png@flosutanto@puddingviz@ao3org We also got to talk to @blue_stocking, who wrote the book Girls Who Like Boys Who Like Boys.

@PeteOlusoga I used to print out my students’ “mugshots” from their student record (took blimmin ages) and write their names under each one and pin them all up around my office. My new institution doesn’t include photos on records, and without this aid I just find it incredibly hard… cont
