Anyone out here know a scholar working on alt-right meme culture? Would especially be great if they have expertise in DH and/or social media network analysis!

ISO freelance/remote work: I recently moved for personal & research reasons and it’s been financially tense, would love and appreciate any leads on work. I’m available to write, edit, transcribe, translate and anything connected to that.

My last paycheck having been in July and my next one being in September should show everyone how completely unlivable grad student “salaries” are.

Putting this out there (summer edition): in need of a side gig(s)/freelance opps — whether local to atx or remote! I’ve got experience copy editing/writing, archival research, audio editing, and a quick learner!

Would appreciate any leads 🫡 help out a broke grad student 😭

All students have to do for my class is watch movies and tv episodes and talk abt them for 10 minutes and they’re still using ChatGPT to give them summaries instead of ACTUALLY watching 😭

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.
