Hey horror community, we need to have a talk... It's time to collectively drop the use of "spook" and "spooky". Here's why. Article by @sharai.bsky.social #horrorsky

Remove Spook From Your Vocabulary Today

It’s officially Halloween season, and a great time to remind everyone that the word “spook” is a slur. Like many words and phrases in the English language, racists did what they do best and ruined it....

I have no idea if any archaeologists are connected to me, but if that’s you, check this out.

If you’re an archaeologist and have never done Skype A Scientist, I urge you to give it a try. It’s a lot of fun!

Sarah McAnulty, Ph.D. @sarahmackattack.bsky.social · 6d

Here I am. Once again. I'm out of archaeologists.

We matched 576 groups w/archaeologists, leaving 13 groups unmatched. This brings me pain! We've never run out of scientists like this before. 598 requests for one category is A LOT. But still.

Archaeologists 🥺
