Whenever there is organisational misbehaviour, there is someone who excused it. It’s banter. Or they grew up in a different era. Or people are just too sensitive. Or they really didn’t mean it like that. Or that’s just how they are and you should just ignore it. 1/

When people feel that they won’t be supported if they challenge misbehaviour, when there is a belief that complaints won’t be taken seriously and nothing will be done, that’s more than a problem with individuals; that’s a problem with organisational culture.

I have watched so many women full professors leave - depressing to see that reflected in these stats 👇👇👇
"Women full professors are 19% more likely than men at the same career stage to leave academia, as compared with 6% for women assistant professors and 10% for associates."
Women faculty feel ‘pushed’ from academia by poor workplace climate
The gender gap in faculty attrition worsens after tenure, according to a new study

I'm not gormless. I've studied media manipulation and propaganda my entire adult life. I've run long campaigns against Murdoch media. My expectations *are* low. But seeing *literally everyone* lie and cover up the genocide and colonisation of Palestine is unforgivable. I'll never see things the same

👀 lots of folks QT'ing to say: women — submit your manuscripts! I think what has to come first is: universities, fix your gendered service and teaching inequities, and society, balance out your care work, so women *have time* to write the damn manuscripts. So many women colleagues are BURNT OUT.
There are still a few weeks left in the year (though December is generally a quiet month for book proposals), but it looks like I’m going to close out 2024 with around 80% of total book proposals coming from men, 18% from women, and 2% from persons whose gender was not apparent/obvious.
