I got given talk to type as part of my learning plan for my PhD and it’s actually quite good. Its not perfect but it does a job. talk-type.com

I love this

First Annual progress review for my PhD done. Into the second year. It was such a helpful process that helped me to articulate what and why I’m doing what I’m doing. #phdlife #scdtp #universityofbrighton

It’s a beautiful thing 🙃

Love a nice pen. Which one is it?

I start crocheting at this time of year. This year I’m attempting stuffed things instead of blankets 😧

This book is on my fellow PhD students desk, I read the back today. She says it’s one of the most telling books she’s read

The people yearn for (democratic) socialism (this one will make you cry)

I don’t know about those specific people might feel, but there may be personal reasons, health reasons, any reasons really. Get an honest ref and it doesn’t really matter why they left their previous job. Ask them at interview.

Nicole is so intuitive, her posts really resonate with me as a late diagnosed woman.

Found out this year, 50 something woman, only because I was in the assessment with one of my kids. A change of career helped me unmask. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been with my life now 😃

I won a prize! #SCDTP #phdlife

Horrendous views on the lgbtq+ community, particularly trans people.

I have one name for you that makes me never vote for you, and I joined the Labour Party to vote you to leader. And that is Rosie duffield.

This is ridiculous
I’m doing a PhD and I only have a C at GCSE level

Still buzzing after the success of this - there’s work to do before the next meeting.

I held the first autism advisory meeting today. A group of 5 young people and me. They were engaged and invested in my research. They gave me so much to think about. What a privilege it was to discuss ideas for data collection and research qu with them. They’ve made my PhD so much more meaningful

JK Rowling pledges to keep up fight against SNP trans policies Author vows to bankroll campaigners after Scottish government fails to pay group's legal fees in Supreme Court equality case

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Never aim for outstanding all of the time, I always said I teach an outstanding lesson 5% of the time. I also teach a really shocking lesson 5% of the time. The rest of the time I’m teaching good lessons, and that’s ok.

Tawny owl

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

They all left teaching, like me because as head of pshe I couldn’t cope with the bullshit. (Among other things)

The football World Cup will be fun 🤷‍♀️

Did taking paracetamol when I was pregnant make me autistic too? I didn’t find out until my kids were adults… asking for a friend 🤷‍♀️

What Ann says ⬇️ is important. Great thread

Congratulation, I too am a female autistic PhD researcher, and have thought along similar lines. I’m just glad I’m not in the US

This looked fab

This looked great

Fair. I’ve left labour. Is this my new home? Possibly.
