My latest co-authored article has been published on Japan Forum. We discuss how the relationship between mixed identities and Australia's multiculturalism is not as straight forward as it seems! Thanks so much to my research participants and supervisor :) https://t.co/NQm5M7e5iN

Fellow Emmy voters, I found a gem in the “Short Form Comedy or Drama Series” categories. “Headless: A Sleepy Hollow Story” is fun & clever & among the scripted entries, it stands head & shoulders above the rest (especially the acting). @shipwrckdcomedy #HeadlessSeries #FYC #Emmys

Did no one believe the emperor was divine prior to the Allied Occupation after WWII? Was this a massive American delusion? The short answer is no, but this is a valid & complex question. OP isn't pulling this out of nowhere, the main issue is that it's totalizing. Buckle up!🧵

Makoto Shinkai has been called the "new Miyazaki".

🎬 His new film, Suzume, stands its ground in the large collection of films and literature coming to terms with the memory of Japan’s 2011 triple disaster, write @gwynjapan + colleagues (@UniNewEngland). https://t.co/oRuVpK8b7J

新しいこと始めます。

I'm excited to launch this new series that Hiro Fujimoto, Maho Ikeda, and myself have been working on. This is our inaugural session of experimental "bilingual" seminar series. Use Japanese or English, whichever you feel more comfortable speaking in.

1/23 The book Queer Korea, published by Duke University Press in 2020, has been circulated internationally as the cutting edge publication and scholarship on Korean queer communities. However, it had serious ethical problems throughout the process of its publication.

[Hannah McCann @binarythis]

Gutting to read how casuals have been treated in our university system, and all power to those brave enough to speak out. @NTEUUniMelb is arguing for 80% secure jobs in our EBA, but the Uni won’t budge! https://t.co/VQ21epZrw7
