Incredibly sad as we face 6 more redundancies in History at UoLincoln on top of the loss of 3 valued colleagues (via voluntary severance). We've always punched above our weight in terms of research + teaching and this is such a sad comment on all of that work and UK HE overall.

St George's Day is a good day to remember that the massive rise in English identity, about which a thousand op-eds were written, turned out to have happened purely because the ONS moved it above 'British' in the list of answers.

is a fantastic documentary so far. Another case of collusion that stinks to high heaven. No wonder the British gov wants to draw line under investigations, when the 'slow waltz' of lumbering probes wasn't enough. The callous disregard for families. Barbaric.

Three hundred bodies exhumed from a mass grave *in a fucking hospital* including the bodies of medics *still in scrubs and wearing handcuffs* and the loudmouths are sucking up all the energy arguing over whether students and other people are protesting the correct way

There's nothing better than a black and white widescreen film. Especially if it's a Regalvision western or Tohoscope samurai. So I compiled a list. 278 films, from Napoleon to Mank. What did I miss? Please, no comedy answers, I beg of you. letterboxd.com/claxtondog/lis…

Very strange watching Swifties ‘re-act’ to new songs on TikTok aside from being a level of performative I’ve never seen - they were acting like these songs were something like another jigsaw piece in a Marvel franchise instead of an album.

went to a viewing of but i’m a cheerleader last night and afterward during the q&a, natasha lyonne threw her leg over the side of the chair, unearthed a wrapped snack from her bag, and while consuming it spent several minutes googling facts about dinosaurs - it was incredible
