8 years ago, I submitted my PhD thesis. Since then, I've:

• Lectured >5,000 students
• Given >40 talks at conferences/workshops

And published:
• 13 research articles
• 3 book reviews
• 7 general audience pieces

This is the kind of thing that winds up philosophers who pay attention to skill (i.e. me) no end

G The Guardian • @theguardi... • 4h Al-generated British schoolgirl becomes far-right social media meme The Guardian Al-generated British schoolgirl becomes far-right social media meme Amelia, created to deter young people from extremism, has been subverted...

Every few weeks if you forget to keep a close eye on the UK, they get up to some real fucking bullshit
