Writing an narrative academic CV is a wild experience of imposter syndrome meeting documented academic contributions. I'm glad it's Friday, because I'm going to need to sit down for a bit and think about what I've done.

In other news, I'm applying for my first Assistant Professorship. Wish me luck!

Delighted to see that @vigilantproject.bsky.social has made it to BlueSky. This Horizon Europe funded project is doing incredible work to detect criminal activities linked to disinformation across Europe. Some fascinating research coming out of this team. Well worth following.

My cousin and their partner wrote an important letter today to @newstatesman.com about their unacceptable endorsement of anti-trans rhetoric. I’m very proud of the two of them for speaking up and eternally frustrated that we are still fighting these battles in 2025. #lgbtq #humanrights #newstatesman

I'd like to share one of my greater achievements this year- the Queer Justice Index.

Myself and @gary-munnelly.bsky.social created a measure of the relationship between political corruption and LGBTQ+ inequality, through data collected by @ilgaeurope.bsky.social + @anticorruption.bsky.social.

Brilliant work by the ATHENA team went into this analysis of 32 case studies of #FIMI yielding in several insights into these attacks on democratic societies. Our press release contains a summary of findings, but the full report will be available on the website soon

A friend recently sent me a point cloud she generated of an 18th century Swedish tallship using LIDAR. I wanted to try converting it to a 3D mesh that we can use to build an immersive virtual experience. So here's a render I managed to generate of a rooster carved into the ship's hull #dh #blender

At the request of absolutely no one (I am bored to death in IAD), here is yet another starter pack!

People and projects in Linked Open Data! Hopefully this is of service to Digital Humanities folks.

Apologies if I missed you, and please let me know if you want to be added.

Hi folks! I'm a postdoctoral research fellow in the ADAPT centre in Dublin. Fundamentally I am interested in finding ways to make it as easy as possible for people find answers to questions. I currently help to combat disinformation, FIMI, and hate speech through the VIGILANT and ATHENA projects.
