Here's a write-up of my keynote from #DH2025, since academic publishing is slow and this was written for right now. roopikarisam.com/talks-cat/dh...

A really lovely night celebrating the release of Dilemmas of Working Women at @argobookshop.bsky.social with a reading (in Japanese as well as English 😅) and a great discussion with @cecilyraynor.bsky.social (who also took the pic of me with my translated babies)!

Thanks to everyone who came out 🥰

Somewhere in the historical centre. I wish I had written down where!
