Hello, this is a blogish apparatus about theory + praxis in the social sciences and humanities in scholar.social form.
We tweet...errr...toot--many things.
The editor has a background in anthropology, philosophy, and semiotics.
We also exist still on twitter at https://twitter.com/IflTheory

@bgcarlisle it will be up on The Geek Anthropologist soon, I will be trying to shout into the void about it once it is out lolol :p.
@IFLTheory
I fucking love theory also. I'm a sociologist. You're awesome!
@elliottdunstan

there is another good open source one floating around but i cannot find the link right this second, i will shoot it to you when i do.
for some theory sort of coming out of the various paradigms related to the umbrella i would also check out
@elliottdunstan
if it is some philosophy just coming out of the domain of digital media and humanities and so on you are interested in in addition to methodology, i also recommend ian bogost-- his twitter is great--and so is 'alien phenomenology'
@IFLTheory Hey! Studying #anthropology radicalized me far beyond what any of my teachers probably would be able to admit they were going for, but I suspect this is where they were expecting/hoping I'd go.
I glad I got into social justice stuff instead of going to grad school though. The white kids from my school who went into grad school didn't come out very intersectionally knowledgeable in a practical way so I feel like I dodged a bullet there. But anthro gave me a good start!
@IFLTheory Hi welcome :)
