The Humanities Faculty at Utrecht University is recruiting to 40 new Assistant Professor positions, including eight new jobs in Philosophy. (Feels unimaginable that a UK university could do this.) uu.nl/en/organisatio…

Two class ideas: 1. Intro to Philosophy via autobiography using Amelie Rorty's Many Faces of Philosophy (underrated collection) 2. 20th C Philosophy via just the APA John Dewey Lectures

If you were building a library that focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion, what’s two books that need to be there? ( think wide genre, not just creative nonfiction or sociology, etc )

My latest on design and justice! It is an expansive review with a wide range of audiences in mind including grad and undergrad students in STS, HCI, and Design. tinyurl.com/43dev3ap

What is a reading, activity, lecture, etc that you are most excited about this semester? Or if you’re not teaching, would be excited to implement?? For me, it would be using a scenario building deck of cards called “STS tarot” in the futures lab.

"... respecting the dignity of the patient as a knower suggests that expertise should also include the expertise of patients—on their body, their experience of pain or joy, and how they weigh the risk of harm against benefit." - Ṣẹ̀yẹ Abímbọ́lá thelancet.com/journals/lance…

"With dignity-based practice, patients would also influence what evidence is generated in the first place. Gaps in clinicians’ knowledge inform research questions; and so should gaps in patients’ knowledge."

“In ethnographic research and in classroom conversations, we engage each other not to come up with definitive answers but to disrupt dominant ways of knowing and explode any notion that there is only one way to move through the world.”

Ned Dodington (author: How to Design with the Animal) prompted students in my #designethnography class to sketch the Umwelten of rabbits, turkeys, squirrels, and cats to "get out of those tropes of what we think the animal would want." #anthrotwitter STSpedagogy #designeducation

Got a copy of proof’s of historian @bcwaterhouse’s _One Day I’ll Work for Myself: The Dream and Delusion That Conquered America_, which will be out in January. It’s a really great history of fantasies around small business and entrepreneurship since the 1970s.

There’s still time to apply for the NSF funded postdoc at James Madison University! joblink.jmu.edu/postings/14692
