'The Antinomy of Emergency and Its Repetitions in India' is now published with Law, Culture and the Humanities. I show how contemporaneous precarities and states of exception played a constitutive role in the shaping of the emergency provisions of the Indian Constitution. 1/2

Last I checked there were three tenure-track comparative literature jobs on the market this year. Really gross to watch a comp. lit. professor help nail the coffin shut on her own field. With friends like this who needs enemies? Utterly shameful. An embarrassment.

She’s still doing a million views an hour. Insane. There are people in Indonesia studying her thesis now. It’s the most downloaded research in her field for the last 100 years. Her citation count 10x-ed and her h-index is now higher than Einstein.

Thrilled to say I passed my viva with no corrections and am officially PhDone.

Great talk by @thariel who among other things explained so clearly the contentious terrain of decolonial pols & in a generous Q & A engaged with the nature of decolonial tools available to us for doing and thinking. @shubranshu1234 thx for organizing this @HaSSCornwall #needed

Nuanced and powerful talk that unpacked the trajectories of decolonisation - attentive to its appropriations, cautioning against its romanticisation, and recognising the value of engaging through critical intimacy. Thanks @thariel for your generous engagement with a packed room.

Since there is some confusion about the nature of my research, here is the abstract for my PhD thesis, which I hope will provide more context for anyone interested in learning more about my work!

For doing, "politics of smell": effing bonkers this site is and what it encourages.

To be clear, this is where I draw the line. This is abhorrent and illegal and no one should ever have to deal with this.

in the wake of the recent appalling misogyny towards women in academia / women with PhDs, i thought I’d re-share my blog post about the reality of being academic women in the 21st century vortex that is the manosphere philosopherscocoon.typepad.com/blog/2023/05/w…

Starting next week @CIJ_ICJ will hold a two-week hearing in the climate change advisory proceedings. Today the Court met with the scientists who have authored various Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (#IPCC) reports. I find this unusual and very odd. 🧵

Three days before the ceasefire during the 2006 war with Lebanon, the Zionist Entity went for maximum damage by pouring 4.6 million cluster bombs on South Lebanon—as a form of ecological terrorism. These kill Lebanese accidentally to this day. (Khayyat)
