Archivist with a love for #histmed, surgical, sexual health, and #histsex collections; if it's in a jar I'll probably love it. She/her. Aprendiendo español.
Oh bloody hell
No no no begs every archivist. You are never going to be able to find anything. Please don’t start using emojis in file names. Who asked for this? What fresh hell is next?

Parents, make sure you're careful this Halloween! Inside this Snickers we've just found the 1444 map of Boarstall, one of the oldest maps of an English village and a fantastic example of late medieval cartography.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.
Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

As a frequent user of the ponds, it disgusts me that terfs are taking a beautiful place and pouring their hate into it. Please fill in this survey if you want to protect this space for all women and make trans women feel. PS the ducks think terfs suck. And the friendly fox. And the crows.
The Gender Critical have already inundated this survey with their disgusting views on banning trans people from using the ponds.
Would be a shame if we inundated with trans positive views on not banning trans people.

Throwing paint on a plane is terrorist violence but trying to burn down asylum seekers accommodation or wanting them or trans people assaulted or dead is just reasonable legitimate concerns of the people
The gov really are just saying calls for violence against certain demographics are okay actually, more than okay, reasonable and maybe even policy ideas
