I have access and am happy to help if you DM me what you need!

yeah that’s a full rewiring. I now can’t watch anything that involves kids in any kind of perilous situation, or indeed anything meaningful about human relationships in general 🥺

Thank you!

Revisited Bitches Brew, On the Corner and Live-Evil this afternoon. Don’t know JDJ’s solo/bandleader stuff - any tips? - but those Miles records are so good

Solidarity with the strikers!

All good here, cheers 👍 busy with work and kids, but enjoying the latter especially (work is fine too, tbf, but also a yearly grind of new things in new places…having fun with research though, when I find time - finishing thing on trans ppl and psychoanalysis in the 60s-70s, a new area for me)

Congrats Matt! Was brilliant to hear you (and @julialaite.bsky.social) on the book, and to learn more about an area I walk through on my commute. Am just starting chapter 2 🏢

The Oakeshitt lectures

Also as part of the series John Gray and Robert Tombs on Raise the Colours as part of “the English revolutionary tradition” 🙃

Looks really interesting Liam, looking forward to reading!

Looks great Charlie, will read. Congrats

So sorry about the laptop!! And also sorry to hear you were feeling ill. We all really enjoyed the paper.

Not sure about the Rosenberg book - been a while!

Also Anat Rosenberg's book on advertising and British modernity might help?

Think @claireljones.bsky.social work potentially useful here. Also maybe Harry Cocks' on lonely hearts ads, e.g. Jnl of History of Sexuality article on 'Sporty Girls' and 'Artistic Boys' and Ross Brooks - and Lisa Sigel on 'London Life'. All touch on sex/euphemism/alibi including through ads I think
