Three absolute legends and a great cover. All signs positive! #envhum

Everyone is, quite rightly, taking issue with Trump's complaints about a museum saying "how bad slavery was" - but it's also worrying that he is annoyed that a MUSEUM is saying "nothing about the future."

Amazingly proud of our daughter Marion who has published this article with @nichecanada.bsky.social! A new generation Jørgensen academics has begun! @dollyjorgensen.bsky.social

Can someone who knows more about dogs than me confirm what breed the dog in this picture is? Looks a bit Shiba-y but not sure (I think this is New York City in 1916, as featured in Vanity Fair. Its for a thing. #dogs #dogsky #dogopolis #envhum

One positive of being very vocal about the type of tea I like to drink during lectures and seminars. #academicsky #envhum

One of the largest removed sections from my PhD thesis to book rewrite is the bit in the intro where I basically just apologise for not writing about .... everything ....in detail.

Screenwriting - I was SO bad, but had great fun trying to write a comedy about 5 teenagers in a band called "The Idealists"....

An open letter has been launched today (27/7/25) for members of the UK academic community (academics and other university staff) to sign, to press the UK Home Office to facilitate safe passage out of Gaza for 40+ students with offers for UK universities. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I literally used this image in a lecture about genocide a matter of months ago....

The legacy of this Labour party will be facilitating genocide and criminalising peaceful protest. Fuck them. #yourparty

British surgeon Nick Maynard explains how Israeli soldiers target Palestinian children at food distribution sites in Gaza, changing the location of gunshot wounds at times, such as aiming for the head one day, the chest the next, followed by the legs or genitals on other days. 🤬🤬🤬

Historians: this is a worrying development. Historians use the Hansard to analyze what was said in parliamentary discussions. If the Hansard is subject to editing out things that are politically unacceptable at the time, we (and future historians) have a problem.

There is currently an exhibition of my research in the Robert Frost Library at Amherst College which showcases some key findings from their archive of Indigenous literature. I was attempting to tell a short history of Indigenous automobility in literature using just four items: #envhum

Such a thoughtful parting gift from the Indigenous Literature Collection at Amherst College, combining Indigenous road narratives and pets in cars in a book I can read to my daughter!

My talk at the Amherst College Summer Bridge school aimed to show incoming first year students that archives and archivists shouldn't be feared, and was not ruined by the fake taxidermy fish in the corner (an April fool's side hobby of Emily Dickinson's).

Every time I visit Stavanger airport, I get chance to reflect on how hard the Wren has been mugged off with it's scientific name. #envhum #troglodytestroglodytes

Early start as I travel to Amherst College, MA for the culmination of my MSCA project on automobility in Indigenous American literature: a summer school at the KWEC archive featuring a talk from "Indiginerd" Lee Francis (Laguna Pueblo). More to follow! #envhum #literature

We are hiring a new PhD student in the history group @unistavanger.bsky.social. There are several possible topics, including «Intersections between history education and education for sustainable development/environmental citizenship», which should be interesting for the #envhist #envhum crowd.

Morning #envhums folk! It's another beautiful day in Stavanger with blue skies and hot (for Norway) temperatures. We haven't had any meaningful rain for weeks. And whilst most people are loving the sunshine, the vegetation that makes Norway so green is not so happy...

See you there! #ecocriticism #envhum
