i found you! But where are the rest of us? Can you point me in the right direction?

@anxiousfuel there's definitely cultural anth folks hanging around, most of them just don't have dedicated anthropology blogs! (Not that my blog is always strictly anthropology these days, though I try to keep it mostly on-topic)

Some the cultural anth focused blogs are @michiko-anthro, @anthroanonymous, @anthroaddict, and @anthropologyapologist

There's also a few museum blogs like @museum-spaces and @museeeuuuum which aren't technically anthropology or archaeology but obviously have a lot of similarities with both.

Some of the people I follow who post anthropology content along with fandom, cats, and other stuff: @jangojips, @rhysintherain, @fatehbaz, @ahgoodthesea

I know I'm missing people/blogs, so please sound off in the comments! Also I know there's some of you out there that I don't follow and I'm always looking for more anthropology content :)

TURNS OUT THERE'S AN ARCHAEOLOGY COMMUNITY ON TUMBLR

[loventhngmore]

Yesterday the clouds may have been thick and dark, the rain may have dropped a bit, but it was such a perfect day. I feel like the last several weeks I’ve been on autopilot with my own routine. I haven’t been cooking as much. I haven’t been able to get to my yoga classes as often. So I took the opportunity yesterday to level set. I made lots of food. I went to yoga. And with just that small bit of attention on my old routine, I already feel more prepared to approach this week. It was a good reminder to check in. To prioritize the things I feel are important. Both with my family and myself. How was your weekend? ♥️ . . . #lnmcloset #levisjeans #anthroaddict #freepeoplestyle (at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/loventhngmore/p/BxZt0fZA5DT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5ki40d6r8xsv

So you have blog recommendations, especially about anthropology?

My blog recs include, but are not limited to, and in no particular order:

@museum-spaces (museology and museum sciences)

@archaeologistproblems and @archaeo-geek (archaeology)

@rivkahstudies (linguistics)

@anthropologist-on-the-loose (anthropology)

@bi-archaeologist (archaeology)

@micewithknives (Australian archaeology)

@anthroaddict (anthropology)

@arkyholic (archaeology)

@invisible-goats (museums and anthropology)

@metasavant (archaeology)

@saintartemis (museums and archaeology, textiles)

@door-into-summer (classics)

@wafflelovingbatgirl (archaeology)

My recommendations are archaeology heavy, since that's my own subfield, but anyone else who falls under the anthropology umbrella is welcome to sound off in the comments.

17 Questions and 17 People

Tagged by both @adisasterfromkansas​ and @chaotic-archaeologist, thanks muchly!!!

Nicknames: None, really. In Italy my friends called me Emi (pronounced e-mee), but now only a few select people use it occasionally.

Height: 5′3″

Hogwarts House: It varies depending on who you ask. Let’s say I’m Gryffindor because that’s what child-me would have wanted. 

Last thing I googled: I’m honestly not sure? I think maybe the feather locations for Assassin’s Creed 2?

Song stuck in my head: The Criminal Minds opening theme because my roommate has been watching it as background noise while she works from home, but I’m currently listening to Rhiannon Giddens on my folk and folk-adjacent playlist.

Number of followers: 3,274

Amount of sleep: Eeesh, uh, it swings wildly between “way too much” and “not nearly enough” 

Lucky number: None really

Dream Job: Getting paid to meet and connect with people while immersing myself in new cultures, while also somehow doing something that helps people like teaching

Wearing: Jeans and sweatshirt. Super exciting.

Favorite song: You truly expect me to have one single favorite song? When I don’t even have a single favorite music genre?

Favorite instrument: ...either clarinet, ukulele, or voice, since those are the ones I play, but there are SO MANY super cool and interesting instruments out there. Like, have you heard a musical saw? Or a guzheng? The list is endless

Aesthetic: The kind of person who always wanted an ~aesthetic~ but could never pick just one

Favourite Author: Mhm, difficult, but my standard go-to for this question is Terry Pratchett.

Favourite animal sounds: That little chirppy sound cats make when they see something interesting

Random: Idk, I spent way too long on this? Writing is hard. For many reasons, but mainly because I can second-guess and double-check what I’m writing, whereas talking I can just say it all and once I’ve said it, I’ve said it. Oh! How about: in the mid to late 19th century, the city I lived in had more millionaires per capita than any other city in the country.

Tag 9 people you'd like to get to know better/catch up with!

Last Song: The Willow Maid by Erutan

Currently reading: I have a pile of books by my bed that makes me feel guilty every time I look at it.

Currently watching: I watched Epic (2013) for the first time and I’m so sad I just now watched it, it’s so good!  I might finally give in and watch Bridgerton...

Currently craving: I really want a brownie! 

I'm tagging: @chaotic-archaeologist @cuddlewumpus @rainmonarch @anthroaddict @rougeminded and anyone else who’d like to join! just say I tagged you!

This might be a weird ask but I've been following your blog the longest on archaeology tumblr (archaeoblr?) and I need someone to ask so. I'm a trans man who is currently going to school for archaeology and I'm working on coming out more and by the time I graduate I want to be out to the school and all that and enter the field as an open trans person but I'm worried about transphobia and I was wondering what your experiences have been w/ that? Or like. Idk things you've noticed wrt that? Thanks!

I’ll begin by clarifying, in case you didn’t already know, that I’m also a trans man.

I think that archaeology is actually a pretty accepting field, given the emphasis in anthropology disciplines of trying not judging others. Archaeologists I know are pretty chill hen it comes to most things ranging from tattoos and dyed hair gender identity and sexuality. 

I’m casually out, and in addition to me my department also has a lesbian and someone who uses they/them pronouns. Every single person that I’ve met in our department has made an active effort in trying to make sure that everyone feels safe and respected. (I can’t vouch for this being the same everywhere, but my experience has. been very positive).

If you start the coming out process in your environment and find that they aren’t supportive, I would encourage you to look elsewhere. There are absolutely places that will support and affirm you, so don’t feel like you have to “make it work” wherever you are now if you feel unhappy or unsafe.

I know you may have heard this before, but I feel like I need to give some health warnings as part of my answer.

Binding, if you choose to do so, will limit your lung capacity in a very meaningful way. You will need to pay attention to this if you’re doing fieldwork so that you don’t over exert yourself and wind up in serious trouble. Additionally, wearing an extra layer will make you more vulnerable to becoming over heated and you need to take that risk seriously.

If top surgery is ever something that you consider, you will need to plan around field season either by not working or having the operation during the off season. It’s a big surgery and you need to give yourself time to recover, for both your health and optimal results. 

Finally, I’ll end by tagging some other archaeologists so that they can respond and hopefully give a larger sample size of what it’s like for LGBTQ+ people. I’m not going to speak for the gender identities/sexual preferences of anyone because I don’t want to assume, I’m just hoping that they can talk about the attitudes in their workplaces.

Maybe the Bronze Age is still alive in our hearts. -anthroaddict

But do you use bronze as your primary metal??? No? That's what I thought.

-Reid

[chaotic-archaeologist]

do you have any recommendations for good archaeology focused tumblrs? every time I try and search the tag all I end up with is photos from museums and while those are pretty, I'm really after a more archaeologist makes bad jokes kinda vibe ??

Oh boy, I’ll try to get everyone but I know I’ll miss some. Feel free to reblog this if I didn’t tag you.

@midden-maiden @art-thropologist @archaicbookworm @buckets-of-dirt @anon-e-has-a-tmblr @sinovenatorchangii @archaeologistproblems @archaeo-geek @saintartemis @anthroaddict @bi-archaeologist @fixomnia-scribble @cousinnick @anthropologist-on-the-loose @enkidusbi @tarivin @tarantula-hawk-wasp

Those are just the ones that I can think of off the top of my head. Archaeology tumblr exists, you just have to... ahem... dig a little to find it.
