At my university for about six months they were very sure what we did in the school of human tities.

It seems that someone called David Mayer has succeeded in bringing OpenAI to heel. It's impossible to get the chatbot to generate that name.

Each of these documents is 10,000-15,000 words long. I've spent today proofing, standardising, cross checking them all. I'd have gone mad if it wasn't for Ants Canada videos on Youtube (www.youtube.com/@AntsCanada)

(PS Ignore the absolutely insane nesting folders - it's been a long couple of weeks)

It was a fun conversation at the launch of our book Reading #Instapoetry! Lots of interesting suggestions for future directions from the attendees. Many thanks to @eliterature.bsky.social for organizing this event.

LOVED this book. Very insightful on the rhetorics of white innocence.

Fun fact: when we were asked for suggestions for cover designs for our open-access collection Reading
#Instapoetry, we just sent the lyrics to Bo Burnham's song "White Woman's Instagram." I think Annabel Hewitson, the cover artist, really understood the brief. Gorgeous, innit?
