I'm a linguist and I do science communication full-time!
I cohost @lingthusiasm.com, a podcast that's enthusiastic about linguistics, and I wrote a book about internet language a few years ago
Lately I've been getting into making zines about linguistics too!

If you know a teen who's interested in linguistics, one place to direct them to is the Linguistics League!
Just had a chat with one of the current organizers who confirmed they're still active (4 generations of students so far) and planning some events for upcoming months!

I got reminded that I literally brought my friends to a Star Trek linguistics panel at DragonCon, then ditched them when they went to a Star Wars party so I could go to the Star Trek dance party.

This is a first for a MIT Press journal I think. Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics is limiting submissions from first authors to one every three months in order to deal with the flood of LLM generated papers coming in. @mitpress.bsky.social
TACL will allow one submission every three months from first authors, with some exceptions

"Human writing has a certain variety. It’s almost ineffable. Linguistics attributes this to the concept of “bursts” in writing. Humans think as they write....They don’t think in uniform patterns, which results in uneven sentences."
