Вчера защитники России решили захватить власть в России. Поэтому другие защитники России полетели убивать первых защитников России, но те их сами убили. А Герой России Пригожин ехал убивать Героя России Шойгу. Из-за этого Герой России Кадыров ехал убивать Героя России Пригожина. А ещё из-за этого Герой России Бортников возбудил дело против Героя России Пригожина, но тут же закрыл его. Потому что самый главный герой России Путин сначала гарантировал, что предатели понесут наказание, а потом гарантировал, что не понесут. А на тех самых первых защитников, которых убили, всем наплевать. Главное, что все защитники и герои, и можно продолжать гордиться тем, какие у России героические защитники.

Or the other thing... worrying?? I am not sure yet.

I am terrible at Twitter, but wow I am grateful I had it last night. Reassuring to see I wasn't alone in my complete bewilderment.

@UmaPradha1 Well deserved!

What a lovely surprise to learn that I've been nominated for the Inspiring Teaching Delivery award in the 2023 Student Choice Awards at UCL! 🥰 Really encouraging to get even just nominated

Off to London to teach on the Education During Emergency Situations module, and watching this on loop on the train because I am a consummate professional: instagram.com/reel/CnK9w3TJJ… Laughed so hard, I think the other passengers have taken some steps back.

Today has been one of those full-on days, where there have been a million tasks, and yet I haven't gotten to any of the work I actually had scheduled in... It's going to be a late one, I think.

An important response to the Taliban's ban on women's higher education by MA EID's own Shurha Koofi. There isn't enough attentionon this story. @CEID_IOE @IOE_London blogs.ucl.ac.uk/ceid/2023/01/0…

Seconded. Even if you're only picking it up now, this is well worth reading.

After an evening of reading predictions of imminent state collapse and civil war in Russia and its geopolitical implications, I'm picking up "My name is Lucy Barton". I don't know how I would sleep without literary fiction.

Another lovely one

A gentle reminder to my MA EID students, and anyone else who needs it @CEID_IOE today as we head into term 2, from the creative mind of @lizandmollie

Well, this was wonderful. Special thanks to my @CEID_IOE MA EID students for motivating me to read this over the break. Looking forward to chatting over the book in January.

This article was brilliant. Highly recommend.
