I'd like to argue that he is, in fact, just a baby.

Someone recently told me I should study something more relevant, and with more contemporary applications than the history of eugenics.

A lovely group of students and I have been working very hard to bring this conference to life. Please share with your academic circles!

53 pages in. It's starting to feel like a hot pile of dumpster trash, which I think means we're almost there.

I watched two episodes last night! It's absolutely unsettling. Couldn't help but admire the smooth transitions between characters/storylines

I'm 26 pages into my thesis and the reality of how long it's going to be is starting to set in. In other news: I will be doing a PhD next year

There is a method to my madness.
I have not yet been able to access it, but I know it's there.

Your first draft doesn't have to be perfect. But mine does. And if it's not I might die.

The research group I work with publishes a lot of edited collections and we've been wondering how we deal with AI generated content. It's a tricky ordeal

Funny how "We're in Plato's cave talking about The Office" also works.

Summer in Europe is basically what keeps me going at this point.

My new vibe for the foreseeable future is "summer in Europe" and I'm not mad about it.

ME: *writing in my journal with the sole aim of pissing off future historians and archaeologists* I returned to my home - which is built in the usual style - by the normal way, and prepared and ate dinner in the way I often but not always do

Get you an academic support system so good it makes your impostor syndrome go away and pushes you to apply for a PhD. #irishstudies #history

"But being Irish, and superstitious, we touch wood" - Emily Murphy in a letter to A. W. Coone of California.

I've been struggling to find hints of Murphy's Irishness and what it meant to her in her life and work, but it is appearing as a constant undertone on her personal correspondences.
