Hello! I am sharing information about my @researchireland.ie project Locating Loss: histories of infertility in landscapes and spaces. I would love to connect with researchers/ practitioners from a wide range of backgrounds and disciplines, so please share widely! Sharing again for morning Bluesky!

Another excellent, stimulating episode

A "Happy" New Year from Death Studies Experts ... I think they are living beings chatting about some good stuff

Best way to start 2026! It was a joy to be invited to The Death Studies Podcast @deathstudiespod.bsky.social 😄 The podcast, hosted by the amazing @drrenskevisser.bsky.social and the incredible Bethan Michael-Fox, is great for anyone looking to know more about death in a deeply entertaining format 🤩

Whilst it is a time where most people are looking back, we start 2026 by looking at the future! We interview @joshuahh.bsky.social about postmortal futures, immortality imaginaries, future collective death, de-growth and more! open.spotify.com/episode/1zmt...

Happy New Year! We love sharing these pro-book posters from the Works Projects Administration Poster Collection in the Library's Prints and Photographs Division. Of the 2,000 WPA posters known to exist, the Library of Congress's collection of more than 900 is the largest.

🎙️Plan for a coffin train I mention on @deathstudiespod.bsky.social! This would have transported corpses ~30 km from Paris to Méry-sur-Oise, where Haussmann planned to build a 5k-acre Necropolis (that’s roughly 45x the size of Père-Lachaise!) to accommodate Paris’s dead for the next 600 years 🚂⚰️

Always a pleasure to nerd out over cemeteries and data!

Had a great time chatting with @kpalex91.bsky.social :)
