Our convenor, @lauragraham86.bsky.social, and @lawandsexuality.bsky.social are co-editing a Concise Encyclopaedia of Gender, Sexuality and Law. Laura and Chris are seeking additional suggestions of entries to the encyclopaedia. See attached poster for full details and get in touch if interested.
Looking forward to connecting with folks at #LSACHICAGO2025 I’ll also be presenting my paper ‘Straight After the Bombs Fall: Queer Legal Praxis and Planning for the End of the World’. Come say hi! Check out/ ask about my recent co edited GSL textbook at the EE stand.
First time back at #lsa2025 Chicago since COVID - been a while! Is there still an LGBT social one evening? Anyone know the details? Thanks!
I find myself on some odd email lists but this is spectacular miss-targeting by one PR firm. Does feel a long way from Big Break… 🎱
Proud supervisor papa…

Had a lovely time on @myprideradio.bsky.social tonight talking about my research on chemsex & consent! Special thanks to Steven for having me on his show :)
I got this at a recent event but - I’m just going to fess up to my stupidity - what the heck is it? Guessing not a coaster… 😂😂😂
Really impressive Democrat response from Elissa Slotkin.
As one fire goes out in my inbox, another one begins. The balance of the universe 🔥 🧘♂️ 🔥
Even by my usual standards I’ve managed to inadvertently make myself look a right plonker an epic number of times today. Not yet 11am 😂😭🤷♂️🤦♂️

I think the final ep of Big Boys is one of those absolute greats. Beautiful and powerful. Thank you @jackrooke.bsky.social
My awesome PhD student. Do reach out to him if you think you can help with this research 👇

So proud and grateful for local North East cultural magazine @thecrackmagazine.bsky.social to feature my participant recruitment poster in their February’s edition! Don’t forget to check out this month’s queer listings, pages 58-59 😉 This is cool. Thanks so much for the support!! 🤩
It’s rare I do a “reply all” mistake but of course when I do it’s to several hundred people 😱🤦♂️🤦♂️

Friday eve journey and catching up with the latest @wonkhe.bsky.social podcast and the freedom of speech legislation changes. Interesting discussion.
How’s your Friday? #WinterSun The face of a man taking a break from the Sun but listening to the absolute bangers from the pool DJ 🎵 ☀️ 🌊
Yes, I assume so in that rather odd passive aggressive way 😂
The they could definitely swap that up for “no smoking. [add menacing voice] it’s the law!”
“Any passengers who still wish to travel on this flight…” Why do airport announcements say this? “I was sat in departures and thought nah mate, now you’ve asked I’ve changed my mind.” Yep, I’ve hit that point of delays where my usual sunny disposition (😂) is looking decidedly overcast 😭😭😭
It’s a bit snowy in Newcastle this morning, and the roads are crazy - do not even attempt to drive anywhere right now if you can avoid it!
Last day on campus. Just one meeting. Can I actually progress my long to do list? Thoughts and prayers…
Ok *deep breath* so this term has been one of the best in years. I have some new roles at work that I love and it’s also been a few months of physical change thanks to exercise, a new diet and yes the wonder drug that is Mounjaro. So here I am today in my (baggy) Student Union top from *cough* 2000
Urgh. I’m hoping these will last. The sound is just so much better and they’re so much more comfortable compared to the old style ones but yea, if I lose these I will have to re-evaluate (or find an income generating venture!)
Well I went back to the last location on find my (now it’s actually daylight) and no sign so I now feel I’ve been mugged at the Apple Store. Lessons learnt! 😂
