University of Leeds is hiring: Professor (Teaching and Research) in Psychology

When the person in your friend group who had the Seychelles destination wedding is in charge of planning the school trips…

That’s great news! 🌿🕊️✨

Centring lived experience voices like this can reshape our knowledge and transform how we understand recovery. Well done David! ✨

Fantastic to see some of our CASSPPR team - @nisanalici.bsky.social and @evepea.bsky.social - presenting their research at the BSC Symposium at @uniofnottingham.bsky.social this week!

Great day at @uniofnottingham.bsky.social BSC Symposium yesterday, some brilliant and thought-provoking work presented. And - slight flex - also presented my own poster of research into prevalence of reported sexual crime against minors.

Extremist groups in Europe and North America that have specifically targeted gaming communities and infiltrated them by using memes, humour, and gameplay experiences as a way to groom younger players before being introduced to radical content. apple.news/ATNzfHUbgTH2...

Me, going through cell after cell of formulae in my excel spreadsheet and finally finding a rogue - instead of = sign: “oh I see what—“ My brain:

Vale, Ozzy Osbourne. Travel light.

If anyone is annoyed that it’s raining this evening… sorry, it’s my fault. I installed an irrigation system in the garden today. #TemptingFate

Brilliant news, David, and well deserved! Great to see #LivedExperience and #RecoveryInformedResearch recognised at this level. Congrats! 🎉

Congratulations Dr @robyn92.bsky.social! 🎉🍾🥂💐

It’s amazing what a letter from reformuk will motivate you to do (other than rush straight to the bin). I just signed @reformpoliticalads.bsky.social’s petition calling for laws to introduce factual accuracy in political advertising. And then I rushed straight to the bin.

This is what happens when I go out unsupervised (mild edition) #gardeningUK

Excited to finally be presenting some of my research to @cassppr.bsky.social colleagues this afternoon - looking at the prevalence of reported sexual crimes against children (what’s reported, how old they are, and what happens after reporting) tough subject but very necessary. #DerbyUni #Criminology

Was great to see that mine and Nick Blagden's paper on therapeutic and rehabilitative climates in prison was published yesterday! #DerbyUni #CASSPPR www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

When did people stop saying nuclear and start saying nucular? Did we really all* just mimic George W Bush so much that we internalised it? *except me, as I’m clearly vexed by it

Wondering if this might be useful for anyone on the @cassppr.bsky.social team?

after hearing from several of you last night, i think i have a general structure for this. it's subject to change based on feedback, but if you're a current, fired, or currently-being-litigated federal worker, i want to hear from you. here are the details.

@sigersonic.bsky.social anyway, how is new job?

This is really excellent news, David! 🎉

An exciting opportunity has arisen for three Research Assistants to join Dr Kyle Treiber and a team of senior researchers in the Institute of Criminology to work on the third phase of the Peterborough Adolescent to Adult Development Study (PADS+). www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/50125/

Me: I’m feeling motivated, I know, I’ll do some stuff on my data project for the seminar My computer:

Fantastic start of #CASSPPR seminar series earlier this month. @nisanalici.bsky.social spoke on #TransitionalJustice and the Kurdish conflict in Turkey. Her work on the Truth & Justice Commission shows why grassroots actors must lead justice efforts and demand accountability. #HumanRights

Honestly, checking the “stay signed in?” option is my new “close the lift doors” button

Interesting findings from the Australian Institute of Criminology on child sex offenders & radical/fringe politics - the majority of people who viewed child sexual abuse material in the last twelve months also viewed online content they described as fringe or radical. www.aic.gov.au/sites/defaul...

@sigersonic.bsky.social ey up, la

Yes it’s cold but the morning walks have been lovely and peaceful…

@dremmascobie-scott.bsky.social hello gorgeous! x

I should not have picked a movie based on it being only 97 minutes long. Boneyard is singularly bad. It crams in every jaded gravelly cop/ recalcitrant sex worker/murdered female family member trope possible, and the dialogue… 😬 I’m beginning to wonder if it’s actually some strange art experiment…

Quite randomly, after never hearing the expression before in my life, I’ve heard “the fox knows many things, the hedgehog knows one big thing” twice in the space of 24 hours (#theSerpentQueen & @tomchivers.bsky.social book, “Everything is Predictable”). My own personal Bayesian probability problem!

This looks like a terrific read, Robyn! (In fact, the whole book looks great, one to add to my reading list for 2025) 📚
