Emily Falconer

A beautiful sunny Autumn day for the Level 5 @UniWestminster Food tour of Soho. The Sociology of food, taste and consumption through a journey of bakeries and coffee.

@mermhart Really enjoying your new book (in audio format). You have a skill of bringing warmth and humour to the otherwise dark and serious despair of chronic illness. Thank you- it’s a comforting listen. #Ihaven’tbeenentirelyhonestwithyoh

@katbrown I may have to watch the Prime of Miss Jean Brodie this weekend in tribute

@JackieKayPoet @BBC1 @bbcarts @bbcstudios Absolutely amazing Jackie- it made me feel incredibly emotional thinking about all the chapters of your life and how they come together- and how much you make me think of Ingrid too xx

It was an intense process - my whole life squeezed into 45 mins! Be curious to hear what you think! Thanks to the fab Lou Lockwood and the whole crew! 👏🏿👏🏿

@criminographer I’m so so so sad to hear this. The pain you’ve had to bear is so cruel. What a delightful child and thankful she lived with such joy. X

We are devastated to say that our beautiful Isabelle died in the early hours of this morning. We are absolutely broken. However, we want you all not to think of her death, but to honour her by living life as she did: fearlessly, joyously & spontaneously.

The truly magnificent Jackie Kay talking about ‘May Day’ at @TheSocReview #UndiscipliningII

This truly was an incredible session, and like nothing I have ever seen at an academic conference before. @TheSocReview #UndiscipliningII

💫Outstanding sessions at #UndiscipliningII yesterday incl beautiful curation by @McknightUlla on song, race and reproductive violence, young co-researchers and @CaitlinFNunn on migration, ancient objects and museums and @JackieKayPoet on poetry, love, loss and politics 💫

@Nigella_Lawson Nigella, since you introduced me to this anchovy and mascarpone combo I now actually use this for loads of dishes- mushroom stroganoff, pretty much any pasta dish, sauce for chicken…. It’s a heavenly and simple combo.

#RecipeOfTheDay is a pasta dish I return to often, as I know many of you do, too: Gemelli with Anchovies, Tomatoes and Mascarpone! nigella.com/recipes/gemell…

@princessjack This really resonates. During periods of chronic illness I know and feel that exercise, fresh air, movement etc is what my body and mind needs but I just CAN’T physically do it. It’s cruel. Solidarity to you.

Exercise is the most important thing for my health, yet my health is stopping me doing the exercise I need. Ffs.

@DrBEvans Hope you’re on Beth. I have had it 4 times now, and each time it’s taken at least 10 days. Everyone v different etc, but there seems to be a widespread misconception it’s all over in a few days and back to work we go.

A week with Covid, still testing positive, still off work, still coughing. Speaking to friends and family in other countries who can access anti-virals it’s so frustrating eligibility in the UK is so narrow. Wiped out and concerned about ME relapse. Fed up now.

And I will say it again, Sociology is one of the most important academic disciplines. It teaches you to be critical and to question everything. And that is why it is under attack. Solidarity to colleagues @SociologyGold

@EmmakJackson I can’t believe it’s come to this. Furious solidarity with you all.

@princessjack @AnneLouiseAvery Those strawberry Lindt ball things are the most addictive things I’ve ever eaten….

Arrived home to a wonderful treat!! Thank you @AnneLouiseAvery 🦊💗

A piece of feminist history came up on my phone memories... @the_FSA committee 11 years ago! @EmilyJSFalconer @ProfSrilaRoy @katesang @Finn_Mackay @PerrierMaud @drclaireocall @b_lockyer @Joparsons @Helen_snaith, Trish Mitra-Kahn & @KatyaSalmi (not pictured), & me 😊

Such an excellent day in Leith presenting at the Scottish Smellscapes event with the University of Edinburgh @WillTullett @_NinaJM. Thanks to Xuelei Huang and Isabelle Darmon for the invite.

What a joy to be part of The Smell of Scotland project Workshop 2 today. Thanks @WillTullett, Xuelei Huang, @EmilyJSFalconer, @marisawlsn, Isabelle Darmon and all the other participants for the fab activities and papers!

@criminographer The magic of Bluey! You’ll get many more years out of Bluey. My 6 year old and I still love it.

I had precisely 3 and a half minutes of complete peace and every second was glorious 😅❤️❤️💙💙

The brilliant @DrHEHolmes presenting ‘Mundane materialities of nothing’ at the @C_S_J_R event Routines, Rhythms and Affective Intimacies

@ThurnellReadSoc You were sorely missed Tom! Hope twins are better today

Missing the Routines, Rhythms and Affective Intimacy in Everyday Life symposium which I helped organise with @EmilyJSFalconer. Home with poorly twins (both now sleeping off a fever) rather than off to London for the day.
