Hello 👋🏼 I’m Jesse Lawson, and welcome to my blog.
You might know me as Dinner Pancakes on TikTok, where I publish educational content and commentary related to disinformation and social media.
Here on my blog you'll find my more exploratory, in-depth work. I like to reflect on what I call The Means of Connectedness, technologically-mediated realities and third spaces, as well as lenses through which to understand our collective experiences as the ever-nascent actors of the American zeitgeist.
My academic background is a mix of sociology, English, higher education, and counseling psychology—all of which are rooted in psychoanalytic and critical feminist perspectives.
LAWSONRY is a blog about things that are important to me, like:
- Social information platforms and the realities we construct with them
- Misinformation & disinformation on
- Politics & public policy
- Ethical product leadership for technologically-mediated reality construction
I also publish a weekly column called Jesse's Weekender, which is more of a free-flowing unpacking (unraveling?) of what's been on my mind between issues.
WHAT READERS HAVE SHARED:
- By the way, you've actually rewired my mind.
- Your communication style has been transformative. Your "student" POV guided me through the first civil political conversation I've had with someone I love that I'd lost to MAGA. Grateful for you.
- Your analysis is concise, respectful, and compassionate.
- I love the way you approach everything with kindness and reason.
