Really delighted to be working my way through this one. Among other things, I love how @drjonessoc.bsky.social weaves together autoethnography, history, social theory, and qualitative data to create something so intimate and human and real

Just reviewed the proofs for my chapter in the forthcoming SAGE Handbook of Queer Studies. It drew on unpublished data from my recent book to consider post-identity sexual politics in the digital era, with a focus on how social movements for LGBTQ+ people and sex workers overlap in significant ways.

Abstract submitted for ASA 2026. I feel pretty good about how my paper/first chapter is shaping up, and it's definitely the best solo-author work I've ever submitted to a conference.
