My husband and I have COVID. We’re well past a year into this pandemic and many who will read this are vaccinated, but it seems important to say a few things (again) about this awful disease. (1/n)

In sum, and yes, this is the point: Get vaccinated if you are lucky enough to live somewhere that has then. Wear a mask. Avoid this awful disease to the extent you can. (n/n)

Sidebar: Vaccination is not yet a possibility here. The pool of vaccines is finite, and the rest of the world is scrambling to get what the US, Canadá, etc haven’t bought out. It makes me nauseous that the US has so many and still people refuse to get one. (4/n)

My co-authored chapter (with the wonderful @liendonicolas ) is online today with the Oxford Handbook on Latin American Politics. If you want to know more about party change and adaptation in the region, this is (if I do say so myself) a helpful overview:

Made it to Syracuse! Since I am child- and partner-less until Friday, I plan to cram in about two weeks of work in four days (in addition to teaching at #IQMR2022 ). That's what I'm supposed to do, right?

Here we are at #iqmr2021 --talking now about when and how to do digital fieldwork and what might be lost (or gained) in translation as a result. So happy to be an instructor here for the next few days after a truly formative experience as a student ten (!!) years ago.

My grades are in! Things that got me through the year: My kids & partner; wine; Brandi Carlile; yoga; Forward Space; wine; patient colleagues; therapy; wine. Nearly all of these things come with great privilege. I am very grateful. Also, good riddance, 2020.

UTDT is full of excellent and accomplished political scientists (and beyond) who will push me to be better at my job in all of its aspects. Their student body is top-notch. I am excited to continue to grow here. That said…
