Rabidly interested in many things. Reader. Science. Technology. Medicine. Law. IP. Communication. Fiction. Not always in that order. Generally tired but feigns enthusiasm.

I’ve posted this before but the light was perfect today- a little Victorian cat paw in a brick at the front of the old Norfolk & Norwich Hospital. As this is on the front-facing corner of the main gates, the bricklayer quite clearly put it there on purpose, at a height where children would spot it.

This is a terrific read, highly recommended. There's a bit in it where @thecelticist.bsky.social laments how Queen Medb has been rebranded as a #girlboss which must have been very cathartic to write.

Dr Elizabeth Boyle took a sabbatical year in 2020/1. Her break coincided with the Covid-19 pandemic and she used the year to reflect upon her life and to interweave her personal reminiscences with academic writing about medieval Ireland for a wider readership.

some Halloween tips:
don’t turn away older kids. let them have fun for as long as they can
don’t turn away kids without costumes. You have no idea what their situation is
if you view halloween as a chore, just shut your door and lights instead of being grumpy at kids

MM refusing to do anything on climate shows that he puts disproportionate weight on the opinions of lobbyists for data centers, car manufacturers, dairy, etc cause support for government action on climate change actually unites people across the country..so who is he talking about?

Banksy just solved so many academics' dilemmas over a book cover. They even get to make a knowing aside about the gavel.
