I have a few DJ mixes on Mixcloud: www.mixcloud.com/SemaphoreSou....

Happening next Tuesday! Come talk to me about free ways to tweak your research recordings so your transcripts are more likely to be done right, the first time!

Upcoming online talks on Evidential Pluralism: Lindley Darden, Rani Lill Anjum, Caterina Marchionni, Isabel Hanson, Nancy Cartwright, Jacob Stegenga. All welcome. jonwilliamson.uk/mosep

I'm not sure how many more times we need to see/hear about violent men calling women "bitch" as they assault & even murder them before we accept that misogynistic slurs aren't neutral.

Call for papers open for a thematic workshop on phil of emotion at @uniofnottingham.bsky.social — deadline is next week! More details: philevents.org/event/show/1...

Radio 4 and BBC and Channel 4 News and all the papers completely skewing the Peggie story so your average person will have no idea what actually happened. Doesn’t this make you furious? Integrity in journalism is dead, not just in the US

Always amused (not amused) at how regularly the idea that there is a 'right' amount of mental ill-health in British society and that we must somehow return there. Declaring the correct amount of mental ill-health based on what you are prepared to pay to mitigate its effects isn't how reduction works

Artists PLEASE I am begging you to use alt text on your art. I want to support you and RT your art but I'm not going to if it does have alt text, and there are so, so many people who feel the same

I am happy to be part of the organization of the next Causality in the Sciences conference in Sevilla, focusing on cases from medicine. Mark your calendars for October 8-9th 2026. Deadline for abstract submission: March 8th. More details here: eventos.us.es/142286/secti...

Heads up 😅 Sex Matters have launched their own MP letter-writing campaign insisting on trans segregation, an exclusionary Code etc etc 📝Let’s make sure our letters outnumber theirs+++ Template here! If you’ve already written, grab a mate & get them to write too 🤗 actionnetwork.org/letters/scra...

List of good reasons to have fireworks:

www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home... Hmmmm. "The Home Secretary has said it is unacceptable for a European human rights watchdog to “question the validity” of the Supreme Court ruling". Except the Commissioner didn't question the "validity" of the Supreme Court ruling, he questioned its fairness.

Great Yarmouth is set to host the biggest neo-nazi music festival in the UK for over a decade. The Home Office has the power to block entry of overseas bands, which will scupper the promoters plans. The link is a quick way to email the Home Office: hopenothate.org.uk/2025/08/28/g...

I want to explain a few things and then it might be clearer why UK trans people are upset. In 2001 I married my wife, Sylvia. In 2005 I started medical transition. (1/13)

The BBC has covered our study on medical power and #LongCovid. It’s a shame they didn’t name me and got my university name wrong, but nonetheless, good to see some MSM attention www.bbc.com/news/article...

71% of disabled people want to use more sustainable modes of transport, but face needless barriers such as overcrowding, missing announcements and a lack of lifts. Public transport must be accessible, so we can all make choices about how to travel.

TW. Needs to be widely shared with cisgender people, especially politicians. Utterly horrifying that Britain has come to this- that most of Britain is just looking the other way while a whole community is being eliminated from society because of lies and hatred. transactual.org.uk/wp-content/u...

New arrival: Final installment of my trilogy on the ripple effects of American pragmatism.

Hi #philsky, I'm searching for philosophies of complicatedness,- so not philosophy of complexity, but specifically complicatedness. There might be an overlap, but it seems rather complicated. ; ) I would love to discover philosophies or philosophers who wrote about this matter.

JUST OUT! PhysioEthology: A posthuman perspective on physiotherapy www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... This paper discusses the mounting challenges facing the physiotherapy profession and possibilities that may open up in response #planetarycrisis

Chronic illness runs our life, it almost always comes first. It’s miserable. We can’t plan anything. Most of us say no to social events, holidays and other commitments because the stress of knowing you MUST do something is awfully hard on a person with unpredictable illness

Every single non-disabled person who is supporting the PIP cuts should be handed a £15k “disability costs” bill each year and asked how they plan on paying it. Because people don’t really need benefits? You’ll be able to find £15k on top of rent, food, utilities and your summer holiday? Right?

Most non-disabled people tend to imagine disability in terms of simple, obvious things - a single part of the body not working the way it does in others. In reality, most disabilities are complex, with multiple problems interacting to make basic tasks impossible. #disability

🟣 Write to your MPs. We need to keep the pressure on them. TakingThePIP has a letter generator which will generate a letter for you to send to your MPs in just a few clicks: takingthepip.co.uk/write-to-you... Taking the PIP has a list of petitions you can sign: takingthepip.co.uk/sign-the-pet...

Wouldn’t it be nice if disabled people, for once, weren’t some political football, but taken as real people with real lives and expertise and views who warranted not just concern but consultation and dare I say, respect

Today the rights to The Philosopher Queens have reverted to me and Lisa. Soon you'll no longer be able to buy the book in the UK. We sold thousands of copies more than we ever expected, and we are so proud of this book.

Got to see a fox cub up close yesterday. vimeo.com/1089201797

Good to see my local university hosting this event. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

She's an amazing fox. Despite having lost an eye a few years ago, she continues to be a great mum. This is a bumper year for her - she has 5 cubs. No wonder she needs a snooze!

One of the foxes we share our garden with.

Proud to have been apart of this team. Research methodology matters. Policy should be based on methodologically sound research. Our results show the many methodological flaws of the Cass Review. Check it out ⬇️

Why it's essential we make more accessible work for disabled people. We're doing our small bit — but it shouldn't just be down to disabled people to create the work for ourselves

“You don’t look that sick to me” No kidding. I’ve got an invisible illness and have spent most of my life learning to hide it. Why? Because people don’t want to see it. They expect you to hide the pain, fatigue & loss of function. To put on a happy face for their comfort.

My son is part of a student project team @riverboatgames.bsky.social at Abertay Uni #Dundee 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 who have built this game … offering training for all humans who wish to serve in the Inter Galactic Postal Service 🪐👾🛸👽

Really good from Laurie Penny on trans panic and 'sensible' people lauriepenny.substack.com/p/terf-islan...

Is now the time to act? In this video I explain what the Supreme Court judgment does - or doesn’t say - about intersex and non-binary rights, and whether it changes the law there. #intersex #nonbinary #supremecourt #equality #women #lgbtq #trans #humanrights

The UK Supreme Court’s transphobic ruling on the definition of woman last week is a defeat for all women—even, ultimately, the self-described feminists celebrating it, and the women who will gain in the short term from their alliance with the carceral state. my latest for @thenation.com

Want to contact your MP about the Supreme Court ruling? @transsolidarity.bsky.social has created an MP letter template to help get you started docs.google.com/document/d/1... 🙂💪

Thousands show solidarity at #TransRightsAreHumanRights Demo in Parliament Square.

Today's the big day! There are 22 planned protests all over the UK and even one abroad! Find out if there's one near you here: whatthetrans.com/compilation-...

I will be attending this protest today. We need urgent action to protect trans human rights. See you there. feministgenderequality.network/urgent-parli...

Now is a great time to be supportive of trans people you know, or those you don't. Actually, always is a great time to speak out against the goddamn lying ghouls trying to pretend trans people are some mysterious threat to anyone, and not just people trying to live their lives.
