Bonny Astor of Thought Experiments in Pubs fame says that the conversations we have when we do #philosophy together make for powerful and meaningful connections. This is how I feel about our summer school #EPICBertinoro: we connected #epistemicinjustice #philsky

Getting Out of Blame: Excuses, Forgiveness, and the Deep Self
We often feel that what we have done is somehow not in keeping with who we are. This tension, or incongruity, between the person we take ourselves to be and what that person has done seems to matter…

Are you ready for the event of the year, #projectEPIC summer school? @lalumera.bsky.social and I are excited to host participants from all over world in Emilia Romagna where we are from! 18 talks in 3 days, all on #epistemicinjustice in healthcare & its various applications #philsky #EPICBertinoro
Philosophers have mostly neglected breakups, despite their impact on our lives. Our next workshop aims to catalyse more research into the ethics of breakups.
New publication!✨ The Harms of Self-Help Discourse We argue that self-help (given its core principles) blames victims and causes epistemic and affective injustice w/ @sallylatham.bsky.social & @almagro.bsky.social 🔓 doi.org/10.1017/hyp....
Last week, we were delighted to welcome Amalia Haro and Marcin Lewiński (NOVA University of Lisbon) to TeC-FiloLab. They gave a joint talk on illocutionary force, followed the next day by Marcin’s talk on charity in interpretation. Many thanks for two days of great discussion!
@isernmas.bsky.social presenting today her work on obstrectic violence and affective injustice, on the various way women are emotionally policed and harmed while going through childbirth. @epsse.bsky.social #philsky #philemotion
Getting ready for the EPSSE annual meeting at the very picturesque town of Eichstätt, where our president Imke von Maur has put together a fantastic pre-conference workshop on philosophy of place — don’t worry if you have missed it, it will turn into a special issue of Passion!
This is finally out! I fixed multiple typos and added all the literature that came out during the unusually lengthy production process. Very apt that it comes out on the first day of EPPSE! Here’s a free link to the published version: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/author...

Just accepted: my Phil Compass article on affective injustice! It synthesizes the debate into an overarching definition ('the unjust interference w people’s affective lives, w regard to their own affective practices or through those of others') & brings out many connections between existing views/1
Once upon a time, I approached biologists @biotay.bsky.social and @auersperga.bsky.social with some crazy ideas on how to test for animals’ concept of death. Many years later, our first study with the stellar cockatoos from the Goffin Lab is finally out! (More to come)
1/16 Do other species understand death? In this study with cockatoos, we approach this question from its foundation, by studying one of its central components: sensitivity to the permanent loss of a function. I will explain it in this thread (with videos) (paper) www.nature.com/articles/s41...
My latest article in @theconversation.com explores some of the ways using AI may undermine intimacy. AI might promise to make things easier but I suggest there is value in being curious, figuring things out, and failing, especially in intimate life. theconversation.com/as-ai-plays-...
As AI plays a bigger role in relationships, true intimacy is getting lost
The normalisation of AI to mediate and shape intimacy arguably erodes self-curiosity.

Well it’s super fucking surreal to be able to share that I’ll be starting a Leverhulme early career fellowship at the university of Nottingham in October 💫 I’ll be arguing that sometimes we believe strange things because of how deeply they resonate 🤓 #philsky
At #EPICJune2026 Ellie Byrne develops ameliorative strategies to address #epistemicinjustice based on what she calls “ground empathy” #philsky
Great talk by Jodie Russell on how to teach what #epistemicinjustice is using games that are engaging and help apply the concept to concrete cases #philsky #EPICJune2026
At today’s EPIC project meeting @kmurphyhollies.bsky.social proposes an amelioration strategy based on resisting the trade-off between being rigorous and being kind #philsky #epistemicinjustice #EPICJune2026
Remember that paper that said that men need romantic love more than women that made the rounds last year? Well, Carme and I have a different theory. It was great to think together about psychology and philosophy and to find out about FOBS (fear of being single)

Does how quickly we choose to save one entity over another reveal how much we value it? Dani Martín, visiting PhD student from the University of Granada, presented his work on using forced-choice dilemmas and reaction times to map how we prioritise humans, animals and plants relative to each other.

Is curiosity a good motivation for travelling? In my new article I argue that this depends on how we understand curiosity, with a lot of help from Maria Lugones’s work on ’world’-travel and @perryzurn.bsky.social’s view on feminist curiosity. Free to read:
