I love this tree outside my place! I will certainly miss her!

Why does this dog remind me of Tilda Swinton?

Just finished watching the 2nd series of 'Stuff the British Stole' - a fantastic fantastic programme, presented with humour and compassion by Marc Fennell. Hugely important history that we must come to terms with. A must watch if you're into provenance or postcolonialism! #arthistory

Overheard: "You know, it's like you remember your first chocolate chip cookie, but after hundreds of chocolate chip cookies it's just another cookie, you know"

Probably the most American analogy I ever heard.

Hunting for treatos

I was out for a walk with the pup today and we saw a gofer! Never seen one in real life before - thought it was a cat initially! I guess Spring is truly here 🤞🏽

Giant gold balloons, one in the shape of a big 3, the other a big 0.

No better feeling than helping one friend (overseas) surprise another friend with balloons for her birthday #TinyJoys

Photo of Ertha Pascal-Trouillot in front of Haiti's flag. She is a Black woman with black hair.

#OnThisDay, 13 Mar 1990, Ertha Pascal-Trouillot became the provisional president of Haiti.

“I accepted the position in the name of Haitian women. I did it as a service to my country. I did it with love and determination.”

Someone has just had a haircut and looks very handsome! #dogs 🐶

Behaving like kings right before the Ides of March has always historically worked out.

some helpful reminders:

-not all jews support israel
-criticizing israel is not the same as being antisemitic
-being pro-palestine does not equal being pro-hamas
-arresting someone for being pro-palestine is a violation of the first amendment
-violating someone’s first amendment rights is bad

Recorded a few months ago. This aged…. poorly.

Then you can change something easy, rather than confront the more challenging issue - the structures of ableism that shape the way we frame cognition and human behaviour. 3/3

As Christopher Faraone has argued, they seem to have found it too socially useful to completely let go of the idea. The vaccines thing for autism seems to be similar. If you frame autism according to the medical model of disability as something "wrong", it's good to have something to blame 2/3

The persistence of the autism and vaccines connection reminds me a lot of the idea of the wander womb in ancient medicine. Medical authors persist with the idea long after dissection has revealed that it isn't possible by claiming that even if it doesn't float it must shift one way or another 1/3

It's my flex around my physician parents - improved by adding Greek into the mix too.

The Ides of March 44 BC is notorious as the day that Roman senators wore pink to protest the actions of Julius Caesar

A compilation of photos of various crime scene dioramas that Frances Glessner Lee created.

It's #InternationalWomensDay! The forensic scientist Frances Glessner Lee created real crime scene dioramas to train homicide investigators in the 1940s/50s. She was troubled that patrolmen and detectives rarely knew how to secure a scene, or identify key evidence in a forensic investigation.

Teaching Latin at the moment and I think one of the most valuable things we're doing is talking about different logics of expression. Places where Latin makes subtle distinctions, but we can't in English and vice versa. An important exercise in flexible thinking!

Hoping to curate an experience here closer to those I used to enjoy on different platforms - positivity & good vibes. To that end, here is dog
