A very happy new year to everyone. I wish and pray that 2025 is the year when the world finally decides to take a chill pill, stop going into wars, stop killing innocent people and children, stop burning the planet, and people start being kind(er) to each other. #HappyNewYear #Peace #Kindness

A great blog from @lydiaarnold.bsky.social on the ‘Pedagogy of Letting Go’ - relevant to a range of issues in #HigherEducation #TertiaryEducation and worth a read.

Sade on the radio on Sweetest Taboo, reminded me of the mother of all misheard lyrics, another song of hers, Mousse Vapourator, or was it Moose Vaporator? Yes, it was fun as a teenager in Uruguay trying to make sense of lyrics in English. I thought Duran Duran were rather political with "No Tories"
