@sociallecturnal Congratulations!!!

A bit of good news to start my leave. I have successfully evidenced Senior Fellowship of HEA, and the panel noted a particular commendation for my work supporting neurodiversity. Hugely important to me for obvious reasons, so I very much appreciate the recognition.

Why are some UK universities leaving their staff with £0 at the end of the month in a cost of living crisis? And what does this mean for other sectors? A quick recap 🧵 1/

@LayeredStrange Twit?

As many now know, Ruth Perry, sister of my friend Professor Julia Waters took her own life following the brutality of an Ofsted inspection at the Caversham Primary School of which she was headteacher. This must never happen again. I stand with Julia in the following:

A sundown or sunset town was a town, city, or neighborhood in the US that excluded non-whites after dark. The term sundown came from the signs that were posted stating that people of color had to leave the town by sundown. A THREAD!

Double take of the day. (So far, it’s still early.) Rishi Sunak’s local electricity network has been upgraded to meet the power demands of his new swimming pool. Maybe read that twice.

A river of boiling shit flows through your town. You haven’t seen a tomato for 18 months. MOTD is 3 minutes long and narrated by a parakeet. Your salary is paid directly to British Gas. You solve a riddle to speak to a GP. You feel people come here because they want an easy life

BBC will not broadcast Attenborough episode over fear of rightwing backlash #Echobox=1678460674" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theguardian.com/media/2023/mar…

Teachers are going on strike tomorrow and it's going to mean hassle for lots of working parents. Do you support the Teacher's strikes?
