Yes yes yes! @srtoliver.bsky.social your work inspired my PhD students to consider speculative geographies and world building to challenge and consider change. #literacies

A5 I agree, @kpsinedu.bsky.social and I see this often happens within digital or affinity spaces. Sometimes when things are pulled into classrooms, that organic student-centered agency is lost. I think maintaining students’ voices has to be central rather than predetermined by teachers #literacies

I want to hear this convo. Can I be a fly on the wall? #literacies

Ooooh!! Start with whichever franchise or city looks good to you. I like my housewives completely unhinged. My engagement has also shifted because I will concurrently listen to podcasts that discuss highlights of the episodes and seasons and participate in all forms of memefication . #literacies

I cannot multitask. I have to be all in and watch later. @kpsinedu.bsky.social please take notes for me. I need a full report of Mary Cosbys confessionals

A2 watching my son in particular take up so many forms of literacies in these fandoms highlights the possibilities and the nuanced discourse. His engagement and commitment to these passioned groups highlights so many important literacies that are overlooked in school settings #literacies

A2 I’m not gonna lie, I’ve gone deep into fandom communities particularly around Real housewives (SLC specifically), fourth wing series, and Taylor swift Easter eggs . What’s been particularly fun has been to see how my own kids have entered fandoms like wings of fire and WWE #literacies

A1 so many favorites! This semester I taught a critical issues PhD course and I got to fangirl by reading some pf my favorite scholars @deroomat.bsky.social @karismjones.bsky.social @wargojon.bsky.social @joshcoleman.bsky.social @scottstorm.bsky.social @amystorn.bsky.social @srtoliver.bsky.social

Exactly. I have felt less alone by engaging with my fellow #literacies community. This has to be a collective response. I nominate @wargojon.bsky.social as host!

I also think my kids were swimming in that pool when the photo was taken.

Especially right now. I am finding it particularly challenging to navigate as a scholar, teacher, and university employee. How can we continue this critical work in #literacies when words and voices that matter are being stripped away.

THAT’S right!! @rabani.bsky.social and @karismjones.bsky.social and I are pumped our special issue will be coming out @cite-ela.bsky.social very soon!! #literacies

Brilliance Amy! I really loved the multi-SIG biz meeting that happened at AERA with the media learning SIG. So much overlap and connections to take place.
October 29, 2025 at 12:49 AM
Agreed! To extend- I’m also trying to make explicit and visible my literacies with my pre-service teachers. Highlighting all the ways that literacies count in and outside the classroom

I agree. Sounds like a fabulous idea for a future #literacies communications chair (Writes in notebook)

Yessssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!

As a former member of the GSB podcast team, I always felt so excited to participate, celebrate, and support the #literacies chat team. I loved the synergy when our monthly events coincided!

Not at all! Hard same!! #literacies

Yessss!! I just put my feral children to bed. I can still hear their pitter-patter of feet upstairs.
