It’s hard to find joy in the season this year. Not a moment goes by where my heart isn’t heavy.

We continue to hold hope for the end of the unimaginable suffering endured by too many while we sit at full tables and hold our children while they sleep peacefully in our arms.

To freedom. To peace.

Get yourself friends who sit with you (in that grief) for an entire afternoon while you present the same thing over and over, purely, & simply, because they want to fight alongside you to succeed.

That is also love.

It took a village - and @silviasteininger.bsky.social.

We don’t talk enough about the immense grief the last months of a PhD brings about.

My dusty, heavily highlighted first year copy of Turpin & Tomkins (‘07) doing some heavy lifting this week.

Deeply confused 19 y/o me is replaced by deeply confused 35 y/o me.

Remember also thinking (after doing 1st year at University of Malta)… where have I heard this one before and why? 😬

I echo @cohelongo.bsky.social here on pathologically being incapable of not following ideas into drafts into files that become ‘draft (80) final final’.

Here it goes:
1) working on colonialism and colonially in EU constitution(alism)
2) inter-imperiality is the shadow that keeps following me.
Bluesky academics, let's get to know each other! Quote this & tell me: 1) a project you are working on & 2) an odd idea/theory you aren't working on but keep thinking about.
Here's mine:
- Whether we can have statehood without inhabitable land.
- The legal-philosophical symbolism in Wagner's Ring.

If anyone is going to put me in a starter pack, can it be one that puts me in a group of people who can teach me how to finish my PhD, stay sane and raise three children?

Thanksinadvance.

*taps mic*
Err, hello, my name is Jenny and I’m looking for starter packs on EU legal studies, critical legal theory, postcolonialism, decolonial approaches. Help a lost woman out, 🦋?

Still have no idea how to use this thing. Now I know how my granny feels operating WhatsApp.
