If any publications out there want to commission a piece on the NikacadoAvocado situation - about him banking 2 years of videos and then posting after a dramatic weight loss and saying it was all an act… hit me up.

I was interviewed for the @mamamiaaus podcast @thequicky about tradwives.
Today is another day of being thankful for a very cool job (@Flinders) where I get to talk to talented, wonderful people about the things that I’m obsessed with.
Listen on apple podcast or Spotify!

New article out this morning! The comments on Facebook I woke up to are big mad and I had a good chuckle.
Go! Read!
Nara Smith's stylised look is part of a carefully honed aesthetic. Her glamorous outfits may be antithetical to the practicalities of the life she presents, but they are integral to her brand, explains @edithjhil @Flinders theconversation.com/tiktoker…

I’m writing an article on Nara Smith and while doing some reading to see what takes people have been taking, I’ve noticed no one is talking about how she never takes her rings off?
Kneading dough? Rings. Cheese from scratch? Rings.
This has to be an alternate universe.

The time during my PhD that a STEM PhD student asked if I knew what a journal article was 🙃🙃
humanities scholars see a STEM topic they don't understand and think "damn, guess i don't understand that. they must be smart" while STEM people see a humanities topic they don't understand & go "they must just be making shit up"

There's been a rise in TikTok trends of “testing” a partner’s loyalty or the strength of a relationship
🍊 However, as @edithjhill + Lydia Woodyatt (@flinders) explain, these "bird tests" and orange peel "theories" can be harmful to you and your partner. theconversation.com/no-getti…
New one out with @LydiaWoodyatt!

New article out in @ConversationEDU talking about how we need to protect child stars, both in the film industry and online.
Quiet on Set, a new documentary about Nickelodeon, raises questions about the protections in place for child stars – both in and out of the film industry.
🎬 In the age of social media, writes @edithjhill (@flinders), this is an even bigger problem. theconversation.com/quiet-on…
Some days I really love my job - on @JOY949 talking about the Nickelodeon Quiet on Set docco, Jojo Siwa’s TikTok infamy, and @purplepingers excellent work around shit rentals and vacancy rates during a housing crisis.

Brains trust!
I’m looking for an article to use as an example for an interdisciplinary workshop.
Ideally:
- Written from 3+ disciplinary perspectives (clear, separated sections)
- A summary/discussion of them combined to show the working together
- Short(ish), easy language
