Wondering what it might be like to work as a mid-career or senior researcher in Australia? UNSW's Green Fellowships are 1 or 2 year positions, open to those at least 8 years post-PhD, with the possibility of converting to permanent UNSW employment.

Green Fellowships | UNSW
The Green Fellowships Program is a prestigious initiative that welcomes academics from outside Australia whose research aligns with UNSW’s strengths and strategic priorities.

Grading and googling hallucinated citations, as one does nowadays, and now that LLMs have been around for a while, I've discovered new horrors: hallucinated journals are now appearing in Google Scholar with dozens of citations bc so many people are citing these fake things

Happy to share my review (that was well late, sorry) of @glexareen.bsky.social's book "Statehood as Political Community"

He may be a moral philosophy bro but his outcomes and ethics are sound in spite of that. The book is excellent and well worth your time

End-of-year drinks with the whole Called to the Bar crew 🍸 We grade 2025 in international law (spoiler: some marks dip below an F), talk “gangsterism as international law”, advisory opinions, Gaza, Ukraine, climate, and whether the UN era is ending.

Everyone imitates Tolkien all the time except when it comes to the one way it would really matter: making the protagonist of your novel for children a short, fat, 50-year-old man who doesn't want to do anything.

Television. The best British satire was “yes, minister“ and “yes, Prime Minister“. The best mainstream American dark comedy was “Don’t Trust the B**** in apartment 23”.

The decision of the adjudicators is final and no correspondence will be entered into.

I will come and do a guest lecture online for anyone, anytime, about this, for free. For any class.

I will tell your electromotor physics class about trans rights.

I will tell your paleogeology class about trans rights.

Just ask me. I will do this.

Editor: why did you opt for using animus furandi over animo furandi in your discussion of the history of the law of piracy?

Me and @pagingdrpaige.bsky.social : because both are generally considered correct but spellcheck wants to turn "animo" into "amino".
