Back home from Manchester, where I had a great day at a British Association for Applied Linguistics SIG conference.
Catching up with old friends and colleagues after many years was a real treat, as was meeting new ones. Loved every second of it.

Federal judge orders Colorado district to return banned books to school libraries
The order prohibits the school board from removing books “because the district disagrees with the views expressed therein or merely to further their preferred political or religious orthodoxy.”

Still in awe of how Susan Hunston is able to get her complex messages across in an accessible manner without compromising academic rigour. That’s a genuine art and craft (yes, referencing Landau) of conferencing! Time well spent at @rc21project.bsky.social

Thrilled to see that, although commercial lexicography is on the verge of extinction, academic lexicographic projects are still being discussed at conferences! Ulrich Heidi’s research sounds fascinating.
