Last year, the book 'Sexual Misconduct in Academia: Informing an Ethics of Care in the University' was withdrawn from publication by Routledge just months after its release. Despite thousands of academics internationally calling for its re-release, it remains unpublished...

@PabloRedux @2023push_it One popup (like on a surfboard 🏄)

[Frances Garrett @garrettfrances]

@2023push_it Done! Missed quite a few along the way but glad to have completed 365 today.

[Frances Garrett @garrettfrances]

@2023push_it Oh awesome, thank you! I’m interested in another year long project but wondered how I’d keep track of the days. Btw, I had a rib/pec injury around day 280 so had to stop the pushups, but hoping to do a full set (if possible) tomorrow to complete the year.

1. Thread on the ableist fetishization of so-called intelligence in academia. I just read yet another article that glorifies so-called intelligence, which is a social construct rooted in eugenics.

@PabloRedux @2022Pushups I do them in chunks of 50, plus a bit now. Even still I have to keep a tally on a post-it note to remember how many sets I’ve done! It’s all blurring together. I have to do at least three sets before noon; the later ones are harder.

[Frances Garrett @garrettfrances]

@James_A_Benn Awesome, I do this too. This fall it’s flamenco, starting next week 😅

[Frances Garrett @garrettfrances]

@2022Pushups Starting to wonder what we’re gonna do next year?

[Frances Garrett @garrettfrances]

@2022Pushups And very grateful for the work you’re doing to keep us on track.

[Frances Garrett @garrettfrances]

@2022Pushups I am!
