My Twitch harassment/stalking story is live now at Rolling Stone. Itโs an intense read but Iโm proud of it.
Thank you to the women (and man) who spoke to me for this piece. Youโre brave and bold and badass!

Now to start coding themโฆ
I donโt post a lot-frankly, I donโt do anything exciting enough to warrant it-but I do have a website chronicling my PhD research if anyone wants a read: sites.google.com/view/uninten...

25.10.2023 19:11 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Today I attended my official induction to Cardiff University as a PhD student. Itโs a little surreal seeing my place of employment through the student lens. I wonder whether experiencing it from the other side of the counter will change my practice?
Anyway, it was fab and I feel excited. ๐
Iโm not surprised that existing research around the unintended consequences of playing video games is so negative. Disappointed, but not surprised.
Canโt unintended consequences be happy accidents too?
