The problem is far bigger than Jeffrey Epstein | Rebecca Solnit Treating the scandal as an aberration misunderstands the global epidemic of violence against women

A statement about how Katy brand told a producer that she believed Russell brand was an abuser but producer didn’t care

Put up by Katy Brand today - this is the story over and over again

A Good Day ‘I suddenly had one of those I can’t find words for it one of those moments of joy I suppose it is.’ Fiction by Caryl Churchill.

holy shit nobody told me there was a new Caryl Churchill short story that you can just, like, read granta.com/a-good-day/

I beg of you, nonfiction writers, breathe life into your prose! Ignore the professor in your brain that's always ready to mark something as too colloquial. Make it read like something written by an actual human you might want to talk to at a party!

New research reveals the 30 critiques holding women back from leadership that most men will never hear Researchers reveal the characteristics that cause women to be overlooked for leadership roles.

Reminded of this today.

We found, there’s always a reason why women are “never quite right” for leadership roles".

A red wall covered in blue and grey graffiti. In the foreground there is a black sketch of a glaring face and the text: ‘EVERY MAN DIES NOT EVERY MAN LIVES’. There are also the words ‘NECK FACE’ and ‘SCOTLAND 21’ in black below.

As part of our ongoing exploration into ‘liveability’, we’ve asked our #DiscoveringLiveability team to keep an eye out for any images that they think speak to liveability in some way. First up, this graffiti artwork was spotted on the streets of Edinburgh by one of our team members last month 📸

Alongside my PhD, I also provide communication & admin support for this brilliant research project! Give us a follow if you’re interested in research on alternatives to #SuicidePrevention and ‘liveability’ 😊

I say this to all my male followers with love in the same way I do with my family and friends - have those uncomfortable conversations with the men in your life. Don’t allow the casual misogyny in conversations. Challenge abusive behaviour. Do the work. It’s on you. It always has been.

reading about the Pelicot case always fills me with misandrist rage anyway but christ I could do with fewer men posting "wow, to think men can do that :(" today and more men actually challenging other guys in their-day-to-day lives, having the uncomfortable chats, stepping in when needed, etc etc

Ahhh thank you!

Hi Sally-Anne! I’d love to be added please 😊

Stage Blood: Vampires of the 19th Century Stage by Roxana Stuart is great! Also a chapter by Jan McDonald called The Devil is Beautiful - Dracula: Freudian Novel and Feminist Drama 😊 I have a pdf copy of that if you can’t find it anywhere!

"The problem is the feeling of working on something bad is completely indistinguishable from the feeling of working on something difficult."
