"I have no plans whatsoever to abandon writing by hand and brain. I strongly believe that we need to continue asserting human voices, amid the cacophony of 'slop'. If we stop writing and thinking for ourselves, then what is the point?" I added an AI use/automation disclosure page. eve.gd/ai/

Live anywhere near Mansfield? Make sure you visit Mansfield Museum from this Saturday. That’s the opening of my exhibition: The Wonderful World of the Ladybird artists. Sneak preview today. It’s looking grand ☺️ Free entry

This petition needs as many signatories as the Exeter one. Please sign and share — don’t let Hertfordshire managers get away with this just because a Russell Group one took the spotlight. #UKHE

Shocking news about redundancies in the Humanities at the University of Hertfordshire, despite their exceptional research activities. I have signed the petition against these actions: it would be great if you would as well: c.org/kDQynZV7J4 @bbkhistorical.bsky.social @bisa-bkk.bsky.social

'What is perhaps remarkable about the Exeter cuts is that they are targeted at some of the university’s most successful departments, many of which turn over a profit even after they have made enormous and increasing contributions to the central university budget.' Read, rage and weep.

The Crisis in Britain’s Universities

The cuts that have been proposed at the University of Exeter demonstrates the crisis of purpose in Britain’s universities. Should not universities also be places to prepare for "eternal dwellings"?
