Hi everyone! I'm currently looking for participants for interviews for my PhD research. I'm working on the history of the LGBT+ community in rural Ireland, the way being in rural Ireland impacted the community and how the community impacted rural Ireland, 1970-2000.

I’ll be forever mad that use of the em dash has become a “telltale sign” of GenAI responses. As someone who frequently uses the em dash - and has since before GenAI was a thing - it feels like it’s muscling in on my turf. Back off, robot! The em dash is mine!

I’m delighted to have unknowingly carried on the long and proud tradition of Donegal people coming to Galway to get degrees in the university. If you’re from Donegal and interested in history, then it’s really your duty to do the MAH in UofG! Sorry, I don’t make the rules.
University College Galway as it was then seeking students as advertised in Donegal Democrat in 1928. Lots more material and archives available @uniofgalwaylib.bsky.social. Please contact sarah-anne.buckley@universityofgalway.ie or tomas.finn@universityofgalway.ie if interested in doing an MA or PhD

The top 5 of my Spotify Wrapped this year was the Pet Shop Boys’ “Go West” and then all Broadway musical soundtracks, so I may have some news for my wife’s gender identity.

I remember learning about the Age of Exploration in secondary school and just being in awe at the idea that an Atlantic crossing went from being a months-long gruelling endeavour to something you could do in a few hours in relative comfort. Dunno why exactly, but I was hooked from then on.
Dear fellow historians: I recently asked my undergraduate students what sparked their interest in studying history. Two of them mentioned the film Titanic! Now I'm curious (and will let them know): What sparked your interest in studying #history?
