All of this maths discourse! No

@AvantiWestCoast Hi, I’m on the Preston-Euston Avanti service 11:18 and stuck on the train at Tring station. Is there any update on when we’re likely to move again / if we will eventually be allowed off the train to take alternative routes? Thanks.

CALL FOR PROPOSALS NOW OPEN📢 Radical Histories is a bold new series by Manchester University Press for work that reshapes how we understand resistance, activism and the people who dared to challenge power. It brings together innovative, field‑defining research on individuals, communities, movements and ideas which challenged political, social and religious authority. Radical history covers the history of popular collective action against power in its many forms. The series aims to champion work that disrupts established narratives and methodologies, opening space for new perspectives, new archives and new ways of writing history. With a global remit from the early modern period to today, the series foregrounds hidden, marginalised and previously unheard voices, geographies and sources.

Salt chapel double act. Loved seeing my ' Beneath the Jetty' photograph paired with an amazing painting by Andrew Hall of the same scene at low tide, at the 61st Essex Open launch. The huge and diverse exhibition is up until February @BeecroftGallery #estuary

I’ve a new book being published! ‘From the Sea’ is a journey into watery and endangered worlds & includes stories from Eating to Extinction + new material. Most thrilling is that it’s part of a series: ‘Oceans, Rivers & Streams’ which explores humanity’s relationship with nature

Whoever coined the term coined the term coined the term coined the term

What a lovely gesture from @dunlinpress sending me a bonus book to dive into with my order of @LuciaDove's Vloed. And very beautiful they both look. Can't wait to get reading!

@TomChatfield @dunlinpress How lovely! They really are the best. And thank you so much for ordering Vloed.

@jodie_l_marley Congratulations Jodie!!

After the riots by Maccabi supporters the mayor of Amsterdam banned all protests in the city, Pro Palestine protests happen daily in the center so also today with extreme police presence.

Turns out the terfs don’t know what a woman is after all

Imane Khelif was assigned female at birth. She’s spoken about being initially banned from boxing by her dad who said it wasn’t for girls. The attacks on her show that transphobia doesn’t only hurt trans people, but also other women who don’t fit conventional ideas of femininity.

sorry I’ve been at dinner. Assuming Olympics uproar tonight is around that bloke who flew from Amsterdam to London in 2014 to r*pe a 12-year-old girl?

@miaminjungyou Sooooo amazing!!

The Dutch have surrounded a group of England fans in Dortmund and started playing “Hey Jude” with them. Great to see both sets of fans enjoying the day creating a fantastic atmosphere together. 👏
