August 2021: Duolingo talk and Lingthusiasm on NPR

August 2021 newsletter: Duolingo talk and Lingthusiasm on NPR

I did a talk about How Linguistics Can Help You Learn a Language for Duolingo! It was part of their annual public fan event, DuoCon, and my talk was alongside fancy people like Trevor Noah and Sohla El-Waylly (please note increasingly fancy fellow linguist Jessi Grieser, who gave a talk about language and belonging, which I also recommend). The talks were all put online after the live event and…

Stephen King collection. At some point I'll organize the shelf so you can see all the books properly.

Today’s tasks will include looking for books to read for March ✨. February has been such a good reading month for me . I only read Jade Legacy this month but it’s a 700 page book so that counts as at least two books IMO 😂. Im still not sure about my next read but I’ve got a few books in mind 😌. What’s on your TBR for March? - #bookloversunite #bookwormsofinstagram #bookingforfun #prettybooks #bibliophilelifestyle #bookshelvesofinstagram #booknerdsunite #bookshelfies #newbookstoread #noshelfcontrol #bookbloggersofig #booklovers #bookworm #alwaysreading #booksofinstagram #bibliophilelife #bookshelves (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CahkhkVLQNj/?utm_medium=tumblr

Oh don’t mind me, I just wanted to show some autumnal appreciation for these beautiful bookspines 😁. I know that everyone has moved beyond autumn and on to Christmas colors and themes but I’m still stuck in the fall🍂. Also, I’m loving The misadventures of awkward black girl by Issa Rae, though I knew that I would. What are you reading today? Have a absolutely wonderful Sunday ☕️🍂. - #bookloversunite #bookwormsofinstagram #bookingforfun #prettybooks #bibliophilelifestyle #bookshelvesofinstagram #booknerdsunite #bookshelfies #newbookstoread #noshelfcontrol #bookbloggersofig https://www.instagram.com/p/CWRGEeArfan/?utm_medium=tumblr

Happy holidays bookstagram! Ace of spades by Faridah Abike-Iyimide was my favorite YA of this year! However, I didn’t see a ton on mentions or fanfare for this gem. This book was definitely the most underrated book of the year for me . It’s dark academia, teenage angst, suspense and thriller done to perfection 👌🏾(for a full synopsis see post from earlier this year). What book/s have you read this year or in years past that you feel are underrated? Have a happy Monday bookstagram ☕️. - #bookloversunite #bookwormsofinstagram #bookingforfun #prettybooks #bibliophilelifestyle #bookshelvesofinstagram #booknerdsunite #bookshelfies #newbookstoread #noshelfcontrol #bookbloggersofig (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXttnqSLmXj/?utm_medium=tumblr

June 2021: texting periods, LingComm21 meta posts, and finally a new bookshelf!

June 2021: texting periods, LingComm21 meta posts, and finally a new bookshelf!

I’m quoted in a New York Times Wordplay piece about ending texts with a period. Now that Because Internet has been out for two years, I can attest that people have successfully used it as a way of opening up cross-generational conversations about changing texting norms. Gretchen McCulloch, the Canadian linguist and author of “Because Internet,” dedicated an entire chapter of her book to…
