We've been quiet lately as we get down to the work of preparing our special issue with New Media & Society, as well as the usual end-of-term frenzy. @HarryTDyer and I wanted to give a shout-out to our amazing reviewers and authors. #thankyou #understandingthesocial

There is plenty of room (and an urgent need) for research towards understanding the nature of how publics interact in Canada’s narrative of the #petrostate and #UNDRIP #TRC @UNHumanRights

Immensely pleased and grateful for @KCarrie, who just presented our paper ‘Issue mapping (anti) colonial public’s on Instagram’ at @SocialDigitalA2. Potent that it falls on today’s day of action supporting #WetsuwetenStrong #notresspass

Tumblr’s language is “straight up sexist.” Brilliant talk by @ysabelgerrard on social media’s algorithmic conflation between eating disorder hashtags and other gendered hashtags, like fashion. Concerning and all too real @SocialDigitalA2 #UnderstandingtheSocial

Five more days to #UnderstandingTheSocial! Can't wait for @ginasue's keynote: 'Toward Network Solidarity?' which positions empathy and Durkheimian solidarity as crucial correctives for 21st Century social cohesion. On fire y'all

Looking forward to starting #UnderstandingTheSocial with @couldrynick's opening keynote about the impact of data & mediatization on the 'social': 'Deep Mediatization: Towards A Datafied Social Order'. Important ideas to begin 2019.
