And that’s a wrap! Doing a PhD with @markhailwood.bsky.social and Prof. Jane Whittle (with Dr. Tyler Rainford, left, as my PhD brother) was the absolute best. I may not be in academia, but you can bet I’ll still be infiltrating @drinkingstudies.bsky.social anyway 😂❤️

Last night I joined a careers panel. 70+ students came - incredible!
But imagine my face when I learned that *every other panellist* had brought a 15min speech WITH SLIDES 🥴 Anyway here I am waving my arms about to try and distract from the fact that I was easily the least organised person up there

Being pragmatic today: making a bed for the cat on my desk, so she won’t sit on my keyboard ❤️

This is so excellent! I was *just* looking for something like this, as I wanted to find a bunch of images for a public talk I'm doing on International Women's Day. Favourite early modern image so far:

More proof that cats are excellent: one has wandered into the gym and made itself at home in the adults lounge. I wish you all the confidence of a cat ❤️

Thanks to the excellent guidance of @markhailwood.bsky.social and Prof. Jane Whittle, I am officially PhDone! The past four years have been some of the best of my life, and I genuinely loved my project (on women’s work in 17th C alehouses) from start to finish. Cheers 🍻
