@jonrbrennan.bsky.socialSame. When I'm checking BlueSky each day I'm usually too wiped to generate any fun lingx content myself, & instead mostly just wind up reposting critiques of AI, academia, & AI in academia 🫠 Not gonna call it a "resolution" but I *will* try to post more about linguistics here in 2026!
Show PostIt is unclear to me how much traction Glossa: a journal of general linguistics is getting on BlueSky. I am thinking of switching communication about new papers to LinkedIn, which gives better insight into the # of views garnered. Give us a like if you want Glossa to stay on the Blue side of things.
Show PostHAPPY NEW YEAR!! Our family tradition is to play board games and eat junk food till midnight. The children didn't annoy each other, nobody got upset when they lost, and everybody had fun and laughed a lot. Feels like a good omen. Here's to hoping 2026 brings more of this kind of joy and harmony!
Show PostWhat a stupid take on the part of Jon Stewart and his buddies. An alternative assumption they could make about a person wearing a mask (and what goes through my head) is that they’re super courteous - they’re getting over a cold or flu and want to make sure they don’t give it to you.
