Check out the preprint for a paper that will be published at #CSCW2025! “Whose Knowledge is Valued?: Epistemic Injustice in CSCW Applications” by Leah Ajmani, Jasmine Foriest, @jordant, Kyle Pittman, me, and @michaelann. I’m really proud of this one, even though I only had a small hand in it.

@lisamelton @lisa That said, lovely to meet you - I'll be over here more to get a feel for discourse on federated platforms, as I have an awesome grad student who is doing cool work on blocklists over here.

@lisamelton @noleli @lisa ah, but IMO there's still value there - transfem literary twitter, in particular, is casually generating insightful trans theory all the time. It also hits two of my research areas, platform migration and user agency/resistance - I'm both impressed by and academically interested in how trans women, especially, are finding new ways to adapt around the encroaching horribleness. Plus, Twitter is still how queer and trans students keep finding me.

I’ll admit: the primary reason I don’t spend much time on here is that transfem Twitter is still going strong and producing instant classics.

I'm currently on the job market, looking for tenure-track academic positions and highly mission-relevant positions outside of academia. My latest papers are a good sample of the kind of work I do:
