Wither patriarchy & anti-feminism? I have just read two very different articles; “Real Masculinity Terrifies the System” positing “There is a war on men" and "What is ‘Toxic Femininity’?” arguing society will crumble with the “shift female dominance.” Are we really back in the 1990s? #medievalsky

My gift to all my friends, cat-lovers or not, going back to their offices and classrooms. A feline survival guide for the neo-liberal university. Plus it is clever and light-hearted and will elicit a smile on this Labour Day weekend. Stay safe out there. #medievalsky

#medievalsky Tonight I am being interviewed about popes and conclaves (Monday, May 12th, at 6 pm) on the Brian Crombie Hour Sauga radio 690 am or watch the episode on lnkd.in/g9_8b6gE

Opened a mystery box and found this! A medievalist’s lifetime in one volume. So happy to see this between covers. Thanks to everyone involved. #medievalsky

Opinion: Ever since the Middle Ages, papal conclaves have been rife with intrigue The secret ceremony that elects a new pope has changed over two millennia – but our fascination stems from real historical evidence

My contribution to providing an historical context to conclaves beyond a vague “ancient tradition.” #medievalsky

I recognize the guide in the photo. He was fantastic!!
