Shameless Self-Promotion Sunday

Jill

Promote yourself. (Or somebody else.)

Netiquette reminders:

  • we expect Content Notes as a courtesy to our readers for problematic content in linked posts and/or their comment threads (a habit of posting only triggering/disparaging links may annoy the Giraffe (you really don’t want to annoy the Giraffe)), Content Notes are not needed if your post title is already descriptive of problematic content.
  • extended discussion of self-promotion links on this thread is counter-productive for the intended signal-boosting –  the idea is for the promoted sites to get more traffic.  If it’s a side-discussion that would be off-topic/unwelcome/distressing on the other site, take it to #spillover after leaving a note on this thread redirecting others there.

  3. More than 40 women have now asserted that Bill Cosby sexually assaulted them. In response to this evolving story — and those of other public figures similarly accused — I wrote a link-heavy challenge to the kinds of doubt and regret people often express whenever rape allegations are made against a celebrity.

  6. I’m trying to fight OCR’s rejection of my complaint against my school, Carnegie Mellon. I developed PTSD from what CMU did. My parents are not supportive–they’re outright abusive. I’ve been writing about the legal fight on my blog. The most recent post, though, is about the abuse I suffer from my family. My degree is in psychology/decision science, so I’m intending to do a full analysis of their behavior in the next series of posts while I wait to hear back about my legal stuff.

  8. I just published a book called THRIVE: HOW I BECAME A SUPERHERO which is an account of my suffering that I transformed into personal growth and empowerment. It covers topics like molestation, misogyny, sexuality, whiteness, class, unemployment, homelessness, childbirth, college rape, victim-blaming, healing, and self-acceptance. It is for anyone who needs a reminder that suffering is not the end, or solidarity, or a possible path forward.
