I think Korean dramas should be made with (non-American) Korean audiences and trends in mind, not what (non-Korean) American streaming giants and viewers want.
I know this is probably a lost cause because colonial capitalism ruins every fucking thing

I still donβt have words for any of it. Iβve had to form words for work and other obligations. But I just feel like Iβve needed to do more processing in therapy. My heart aches for the families. Elders and children.
The current state of PhD salaries threatens to undermine US efforts to increase diversity in science, Gaynor says. βIf programmes arenβt meeting the basic cost of living, who are we selecting for? People who have financial support or external fellowships.β twitter.com/Nature/status/β¦

Take all the time you need, but donβt project.
NEW WRITING!
I'm part of a majority #BlackandSTEM team that wrote a set of papers on power dynamics, policing and gatekeeping, and socialization in physics. They are aimed at #Snowmass2021 but are broadly useful!
First: a guide on how to read them!

TONIGHT ON THE ARXIV!
Four new papers as part of #Snowmass2021 about social issues in physics.

Monday morning real equity talkβToo many want to default to the perspective that ongoing problems are due to a few isolated "bad actors". Bad actors are no help, esp when they have "voice" & a semblance of power, but these individuals exist in systems that protect & provide cover
Itβs always wild to see Black people jump on this app and trash Black folks and Black institutions for things that are caused by white supremacy and not say shit about the white supremacy
Had the pleasure of sharing time and space with and learning from @BLACKandSTEM founder Dr. Stephani Page @ThePurplePage today at the @TigersAdvance Picture A Scholar event! It was a great day!
In our Office Hours Spaces today, I gave everyone homework:
Rewrite your Twitter bio and make sure it communicates
- who you are
- what you do
- what makes you different
Then, share it with your audience & ask them if it conveys you.
Let me know if you want me to look at yours.
