1st workshop of the new job didn't go without issues *but I did fix them.* Now I need to figure out how to add more hours to day the day to claim the TOIL back that was accrued in the week 🙃

i don’t feel right calling it burnout i was never properly fueled and lit to begin with

Fewer first-generation female graduates have children, study finds Women who were the first member of their family to gain a degree were found to be less likely to choose to become mothers

It's quite sad that this wasn't framed positively. I was only talking to someone the other day about how every other woman in my family who is my age (and much younger) is a SAHM, and it's cool I had the choice whereas my mum didn't.

I don't like Guiness, so seeing as I've got a cold and it's medicinal it's a whisky with the duvet on the sofa to binge House of Guiness for me

Eek nope but it's not a stretch to imagine it. What a world we're diving into

It makes sense when you consider that women are less likely to enter middle leadership and be in a position to rewrite those modules, and even if they're Heads of Dept they essentially need to want to do it for free. It's a huge endeavour on top of an already high workload

“Male loneliness” is a vague, empirically unfalsifiable Potemkin village of an argument meant to smuggle yet more anti feminism into popular consensus.

AI-Generated YouTube Channel Uploaded Nothing But Videos of Women Being Shot YouTube removed a channel that posted nothing but graphic Veo-generated videos of women being shot after 404 Media reached out for comment.

This is terrifying and yet everyone simply says 'it'll be everywhere, there's no avoiding AI'

Taught my collie to play football. Now she won't come inside without a kick about

Interesting new public history strategy?

Me on campus at 7am tomorrow with three more school visits to go this week..

Or you could just fund it?

Text reads: he was convicted in august 2018 and was ordered to carry out 300 hours of unpaid work. A 3 year non harassment order was also granted to prevent him from contacting either of his victims. How many of watts friends knew about his previous convictions? The far right claim to protect women and children yet they are willing to platform someone who has convictions for domestic abuse. Photo is a screenshot of josh watt retweeting Chris Houston saying he is his number 1 fan

Text reads: it is therefore not a surprise that John watt supports the “justice for innocent men Scotland” group that some survivors have labelled “rapist support group” for their targeting of victims/survivors of sexual assault when perpetrators have been convicted Image is a video still from watts podcast where he says “so now we’ve got a man in jail for potential hearsay”

Text reads: watt interviewed one of the organisers of the group who stated that convictions for rape and sexual assault are higher to “control the population by decreasing birth rate” and to “break down the family unit”. And given Watts history of domestic abuse it’s unsurprising that he commented in relation to a convicted rapist “so now we’ve got a man in jail for potential hearsay” Image same as on previous slide

Photo of Watt’s tweet with selfie at Perth protest. Text reads: the far right make a mockery of true justice for victims and survivors

Saw some ads for them on tiktok shop. I wonder if they come up more if they're viewing reform-esque content

It feels like this winter will be a tipping point, and I know many people feel the same. (63% to be precise)😅

This makes me sound like a boomer who misses work because it's their only socialising and maybe I'll get used to it

This feels like a confession but I hate working from home. I miss the structure and routine of going into school! Maybe it's because I don't have a separate room/workspace (kitchen table that's a room everyone walks through' or just a me thing but who do you guys talk to all day?

Anyone who doesn't acknowledge the urgency of poverty, climate collapse, human rights, counterinsurgency, and tries to WhatAbout Zack isn't really interested in making things better

Historians, politicians, journalists… Do you need a researcher?

She does give off 'posh woman who tells sex stories at a party to be salacious' not 'literature fan who monologues about the importance of faithfully retelling the classics.' I think if you want historically accurate period dramas we need a nerd to make them

I haven't particularly liked Emerald Fennel's films, so I'm not defending it as a fan, but all of the Wuthering Heights furore makes you wonder why they'd produce an accurate version given how much hype the anger about inaccuracy creates

Last week I went around my dad's house to help him clear his unopened letters and do life admin. Sitting amongst a pile of unopened bills and not managing to finish a single conversational point, he throws in 'I don't know what I did for you to end up taking that adhd medication' 😂

First (half) week not working in schools and remembering I'm allowed to eat, drink, and go to the toilet whenever I liked was such a treat 😂

David Bowie's final project was a musical set in London Shortly before his death, the star wrote dozens of notes for a musical set in 18th Century London.

Fab thanks!

Perhaps a silly question because I am aware of maps, but if you were looking to base yourself somewhere in Cornwall for a few days, where would you go? Never been so want to drive around a fair bit 😄

If they don't let me reopen one of my old email accounts, I'll be kerry.love4 😂can't stay away

Back to work tommorow! Starting a new job roughly once a year for the past few years has taught me the importance of always doing your hair for the new ID picture
