So here’s the thing: I, a certified Disabled™️ Person, do not actually care if anyone fakes for an extra 20 minutes on the test. I care deeply about how the fear of that very thing puts up flaming hoops disabled people have to jump through.

Maybe listen to disabled folk on this one.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

Strike fatigue is real. Especially when we continue to see that strike action doesn't give any real results.
Unfortunately the HE 2025 ballot failed at 39% turnout. I have written about why and about what desperately needs to change in UCU's national structures off the back of this result. Some HEC members need to chi up and understand their role in all this, and how disconnected they are from members.
The HE Ballot failed, now what?
If you’re reading this it is because today the UCU’s 2025 national ballot over pay and conditions in universities has failed. The last time…

I hate to pull the immigrant card, but as an immigrant, it feels awful when elected MPs say I ‘need to go home’ and propose stripping me and all other immigrants of all our legal rights to live here. No, anywhere immigrants move is their home. The UK is my home.

A ★★★★★ review of High Noon (1952)
Sort of a classic Western, sort of a psychological thriller, but above all a profound treatise on hypocrisy, cowardice and duty. For that reason, it is probably more relevant now than at any time sinc...

You won’t remember most of the papers you read.
However, you’ll remember who made you feel like you could keep going.

A very good omen for Small Blue butterflies.

Kidney Vetch is the sole foodplant for the larvae of Small Blues - the UK's smallest butterfly.

Seeing this flower in abundance on the chalk grassland bodes well for the species.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖
