Come for research on inequalities, public health and abortion. Stay for knitting/football/allotments/swimming/grief.

What are we DOING here? We're just meant to sit and act like this insane plagiarism and climate threat that requires more money than anything has ever cost is worth it? Are we meant to pretend that ChatGPT is worth this aimless, meaningless destruction of capital and our environment? For what?
Yeah I need way more money than anyone ever got before. I need it because my shit is difficult right now. But it's important in ways even I haven't been able to work out. OpenAI is a serious business. Help me. Please help me please my serious company is so good. Help me

Tonight at @lshtm.bsky.social Collage Club: reworking a beautiful Landworker’s Alliance calendar. Lovely way to decompress after a busy day and long supervision!

Some nice trees between home and the library. Grateful for my corner of London.

Given it is such a universal experience, I’m yet to see many people talk about the experience of doing a #PhD whilst grieving.

I’m going to start a thread of my reflections- I may or may not add to it. #Grief is so lonely and even if it helps just one person then it’s worth over sharing! 🧵

I have no idea how far my reach is currently…But if there is anyone out there considering an @nihr.bsky.social doctoral fellowship, I’m very happy to share my experiences and help where I can. Please get in touch if that is you! #phd #fellowship

V interesting work coming from Rishita- do check the job requirements and eligibility before you inundate her with questions!
i've a tiny grant for a new study exploring how abortion pills "testing" in Great Britain functions as a moralising & disciplining force, reinforcing abortion stigma & acting as a mechanism for reproductive governance. I'm hiring a part-time RA for it: shorturl.at/AgWcB @kings-sga.bsky.social 1/

Thanks @lshtm.bsky.social for putting my "accidental aRt" up in the new building at Tavistock Place! I knew GCSE Art would pay off some day.

👋 hi, I’m Rebecca!

Professionally, I’m interested in health inequalities and how health systems (re)produce them.

Personally, I’m a keen knitter, lover of the outdoors, and am often pining for the east coast. 🌊☀️

I haven't seen one out there yet, so I created a Sexual and Reproductive Health starter pack! Let me know who I missed that's here.

Looking forward to building back community here, especially as we gear up for these next few years.

This was exactly the kind of thing I meant www.theguardian.com/world/2023/n...
Worth remembering that these are the cases brought into the public domain. I shudder to think what is happening that hasn’t been surfaced yet. Anyone in the community who is complacent about the need from decrim really needs to reflect on their position.
