I’m so sick of these stories. I’m exhausted, enraged & frustrated. Misogyny in medicine kills. The patriarchy kills. The health gap kills. We all have these stories. Some of us are lucky enough to survive, but many aren’t. Tell your stories. Keep screaming until this never happens again:

Cancer changes you forever. Even if you’re lucky enough, like me, to have the type of cancer that can be cured. Your body is not the same. Life is not the same. It can feel very isolating when friends and family don’t understand this. #graphicmedicine #cansky

I hope you have someone who can be there alongside you through these difficult times. I hope that if help is available, you are strong enough to ask for it and accept it. 4/7

this is the story of how the so-called word gap came to be embedded in England's education policy, and how it (re)normalised discourses of linguistic deficiency which framed the acquisition of 'more words' and 'better words' as a social justice tool www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.

My teacher bestie is leaving. Not just our school, but education. She is one of the best, inspirational, creative teachers I know. A sad day for all the children she could have taught. Hopefully everything she is hoping for will materialise. This could have been prevented. Look after your staff!

Had quite a few people ask for my @LitdriveUK PowerPoint. #LitdriveCPD25 Here it is: dropbox.com/scl/fi/j10pbmn… Probably will make very little sense without my commentary so will blog about it at a later date. Got 60 English Lit Paper 2s to mark by Friday.

I didn’t post anything yesterday as I was rushed off my feet but in the best way! The Litdrive conference was incredible and I’m SO thankful to everyone who made it happen. Now for a day of doing nothing at all 😴🙏🏻 #LitdriveCPD25 @litdrive.bsky.social

‘Arts & Humanities researchers …find themselves increasingly having to produce outputs in their own time…Such circumstances make it feel odd to decouple Arts & Humanities researchers from their outputs…egregious when that decoupling means those outputs cannot move with the researchers who made them’

Woop 🔥🔥

‘there is now a worry that REF2029 will enable a different injustice: that institutions can hold onto the outputs of staff they have sacked, while making it harder for them to gain new academic employment because they are no longer linked to the work they created.’ This must be changed.
