Open Access no less! Kingship, identity, masculinity, and food. It was so great to collaborate on this wonderful piece of research. 👑

It’s invisible to most people in the UK, but any TikTok post that’s remotely political is flooded in the comments with bots saying variations of “vote reform”.
And that’s just got to be swaying young people who haven’t got party loyalties or who don’t consume mainstream media.

Managed to convince 0% of my students to use footnotes in their dissertations this year. Sad face.

Box for Broadcasts is supposed to have everything that was on TV isn't it? Year upon year I end up having to drop clips because they disappear from what I thought was an archive.

I am very honoured to be working with Jin to lead such a brilliant DH centre. We're already busy behind the scenes making plans for a great year for #DH!
We’re thrilled to welcome our new Co-Directors:
@jin-gao.bsky.social & @adamcrymble.bsky.social

Together, they’ll be leading the Centre into its next chapter of innovation, collaboration, and digital scholarship. The future is #DigitalHumanities

Vote for Sarah and vote for early career candidates. They very rarely get elected in the RHS
This is your friendly reminder to VOTE in the @royalhistsoc.org Council elections. Not necessarily for me (though if you felt moved in that direction it would be appreciated), but for any candidates you feel represent you and your experiences of 'doing' History. #skystorians #academicsky 🗃️

First university merger announced in the UK. People in HE will have feelings, but I don't think this is the last.

One vice chancellor.

UK's first 'super-university' to be created as two merge from 2026
Universities are facing ongoing financial worries, with the regulator saying other mergers could follow.

A loss for web archiving but I can see this becoming a wider trend to protect against big AI
