this reminds me of how in Spanish the nonbinary/gender neutral pronouns are accidentally gendered as well: ele vs elle depends on the gender of the person. which i find hilarious how much it defeats the purpose of the neutral pronouns

i will say. due to 3 nonbinary talks in a row. i think we gotta theorize nonbinary better in sociolinguistics. nonbinary is not "a" "gender" #nwav53

In her #NWAV53 plenary, King discusses an example of a juror being dismissed from the pool due to forestressing in the word police (so PO-lice), because the prosecutor claimed that the pronunciation showed animus towards law enforcement. And this is exactly why I study prosody!

my favorite aspect of working with social media research so far is that i get to chuckle in between coding Instagram memes for elitism because the memes are still hilarious

I am really excited to have my first post here on Bluesky be to officially announce I will be attending the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign this fall. I am so so excited to study under the same academics that inspired my passion for sociolinguistics 🩵
