Oh, and 10% have reoffended.

A further 10% have absconded.

Disgusting decision. There are questions that so-called hard science cannot answer. Social Science and humanities research is necessary.

Watercolour self portrait with a not very flattering expression.

Ink and watercolour selfie. Showcasing the lovely blue suture beside my eyebrow that people seem to assume is a piercing. Yeah, nah! I would look even more pissed off if it was a piercing. No offence to those who have one, it’s just not for me.

“Othering” is a theme in qual data I’m analysing at the moment too. I’m investigating experiences of just in time academic support for at risk first year students. Domestic students: “Not useful for me but I can see how others would benefit.”

Academic Integrity starter pack. I’m re-sharing because Bluesky has nearly doubled its users since this was made go.bsky.app/HYEuCiG

A colleague’s peer reviewed article was plagiarised and published in another journal. It was submitted for consideration by the plagiarists six days after being published open access by my colleague. Lawyers are now involved. Anyone else had this experience?

All I ask of Winston Peters is that he demand David Seymour be made Minister of Underpants! 🙏 #NZPol

I just got asked to review and it had some substantial pay associated with it. Amazing how much that changes how you think about it and the time it takes. #academia #review

No message. Just a greyed out post button.

One of our Masters students is recruiting mental health professionals for a qualitative study on how they experience working with clients dealing with eco-anxiety/climate distress. Details below.

There’s horrible stuff, yes. But my fantastic #academicintegrity network are still very active over there and I don’t want to lose them.

Well, I do like to believe I am groundbreaking.

My account is not new, but I can no longer post or comment.

Hmmm. My account is definitely not new.

How are my Aotearoa friends managing to tweet and comment on x? I no longer have these options because I refuse to pay $1 per month to Musk.

Three weeks ago I decided to work 40 hour weeks instead of my normal 50-60. I knew I wouldn’t get through my workload . No surprise what isn’t getting done.

Don’t be a dick.

That’s it. That’s the policy.

Duck face attempt?

Made my 17 year old very happy by giving him my original 1980s Sony Walkman. Made myself very happy by finding a Fun Boy Three cassette tape inside it.

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

‘It’s destroyed me completely’: Kenyan moderators decry toll of training of AI models Employees describe the psychological trauma of reading and viewing graphic content, low pay and abrupt dismissals

Currently going through several thousand responses to a survey about the use of AI in academia. We have known about the human exploitation cost for several months at least, and not one academic raised this issue. #Disappointing
