I’m curious: What discipline is this dissertation in?

Feminist blogging. But it’s complicated, if I tell you more it’ll be googleable and I am waiting for someone’s OK before I post a link to it so that you all can read it. Because personally, I am very troubled by the idea that someone participates in the blogging community (which is what the author does/ did) as a peer, an equal of sorts but is in fact documenting everything to advance her career. And additionally, when there is no provision in the text, no statement made as to the subjects’ awareness that they were being “studied”. I find that very dehumanizing.

For the past decade and a half I have been making all my content available for free (and never behind a paywall) as an ongoing practice of ephemeral publishing. This site is no exception. If you wish to help offset my labor costs, you can donate on Paypal or you can subscribe to Patreon where I will not be putting my posts behind a lock but you'd be helping me continue making this work available for everyone. Thank you.  Follow me on Twitter for new post updates.
