Factually correct #AcademicChatter

This guy seems like a bad dude but given he previously worked in brownface its not surprising. At least it sounds like everyone found it awkward and i feel like thats an improvement on perhaps 10 years ago where i could have imagined a lot of people laughing www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The cookie on the bag vs. the cookie in the bag.

I remember reading a piece in @economist.com recently about how Netanyahu is addicted to crisis. Looks like that is true.

*reads any news*

Trump’s go-to line about every foreign policy crisis and war - from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, to October 7th, to the Israel’s devastation of Gaza - was “It would never have happened if I was president.” Welp.

Not sure if i saw @carladenyer.bsky.social in E&C or if i am just delirious post-night shift

The most disturbing thing about the winter fuel debacle is the chilling effect it'll have on any government which tries to think rationally about pensioner benefits and intergenerational fairness. We really are in the Nanny State now. New writing from me. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

Ironic sloganeering in the Highlands.

Really interesting and I think very insightful thread on Mumsnet about just how entirely different the intergenerational financial experience has been:

Tomorrow is probably the first time in a long time that I can’t be bothered to watch #WWDC25

I have seen three patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension in the space of a week. Before this week I hadn’t seen any. Like London buses I guess

Big fan of this definition of "white British" that excludes the King

on.ft.com/4kuLiOM @gideonrachman.bsky.social absolutely correct about the chicken-in-chief. How long before FT journalists are banned from entering the country though.

Today marks the end of Jewish American Heritage Month, Illinois. I won't be silent in the face of a continuing record rise of antisemitism in our nation. There is strength in our faith, and we can always find strength in one another.

Lots of Bluesky vs Twitter chat today, so let me just point out that Bluesky is not currently awash with accounts trying to monetise and weaponise footage of a horrific incident in Liverpool, nor indeed is it full of deliberate disinformation about that incident. So that's something.

on this Bluesky Talking About Bluesky Day I would like to add my view, which is: please can everyone stop saying "booo people are too serious on here" and just start actually posting silly stuff instead, this is social media, be the change you want to see in the world, stop whingeing
