Maybe the Mayans weren't saying the world would end in 2012, maybe 2012 was more of a recommended best before date

Very happy to have been awarded the inaugural IHR Inclusive Histories award, which will allow me to write a crucial contribution to histories of development in India recognising the agencies of marginalised and underrepresented actors @KingsCollegeLon @kingshistory @jonewilson

If you’re feeling the sense of impending doom, you can find me over on bsky at calyxrose bsky.app/profile/calyxr… 😘

@sarrah2q It’s got to be done!

@calyxworld Now you're just bragging. (Good)

Rough day at the office

@rafalpast Lmao never mind the waitress just brought us a shot glass each of rakomelo so she didn’t have to drink alone

@rafalpast There will be this evening, dw 😉

It’s a historian’s *actual job* to rewrite history. I wish people would make the slightest effort to understand that. People have been in the place that is now Britain for thousand of years longer than white skin existed.

followed the tt trend and asked my dad how often he thinks about the Roman Empire… his answer? a very defensive “probably not EVERY month”

@Dr_Jenny_Morris Also lmaaaaaao just realised you’re already 130 pages in

@Dr_Jenny_Morris Not to illwish you but like can you legally do this if you have a literary agent? Feels like it would be against the rules

Heheh

@friccar_ @Dr_Jenny_Morris @KNLitAgency Iirc there was a burnt wine cork involved, and it was all entirely Jenny’s idea

@calyxworld @Dr_Jenny_Morris @KNLitAgency Were you playing that game with the beer can and the candle? Or is this just your face of a weekend?

So bloody excited to announce that I have a literary agent! I'm now rep'd by the awesome @friccar_ at the @KNLitAgency. I can't wait to work with Francesca and the team to bring my weird murdery ideas into the world!
