What I'm learning at #SWCC2026 is that much as linguists have science envy about how much the general public knows about science generally, scientists have space dinos envy about how certain fields are better represented in #scicomm

Feeling heartened by the Fireside chat with Nahlah Ayed, host of CBC Ideas, at #SWCC2026

"We're making hour-long episodes for people who want more depth than is possible from a 2 minute video"

Excited to be attending my first @swc-can.bsky.social conference today and tomorrow!

If you want to chat language, linguistics, or mythbusting, do say hi!

Also giving a talk about mythbusting and emoji this afternoon

*I did one at WCSJ in South Africa last year, so this is technically true.

Honored to be chosen as a speaker at SWCC 2026 in Montreal (June 15-16), where I'll be speaking about Climate Change. More specifically, the role fiction, and the creators who create it, play in advancing understandings of the climate crisis.
