I've got my ticket for the Editing Festival this September, aka the CIEP annual conference! It's the only chance I get to see most of my #edibuddieswww.ciep.uk/events/ciep-...

My husband enjoyed The Last of Us, so I thought he might like #Fallout too. We're now two episodes in and we are both hooked ☢️

I can't say I was avidly awaiting a TV series of #Fallout, but now that it's here I had to watch it! I've only seen the first episode but I think it's off to a good start. The civilian and military bits both had a decent backstory with a 'what the f**k do I do now' cliffhanger.

I've been thinking about what media will persist for historians of the future. Will they be able to access our digital data? Will overhead projector slides be the enduring media of the 20th century? Will they be bamboozled by a Walkman and assume it has religious significance?

Back to school with a bump with an unexpected *double session* for today's A276 tutorial. It was great to be able to go into more depth than usual, but I wish I'd read the description more carefully beforehand!

It's Black Friday, so I've bought myself... a course in ancient Greek! Thanks @classicsacademy.bsky.social!

Just finished watching Bodies. I loved it. It's definitely worth a month's subscription to Netflix. I've also caught up with Heartstopper and Sex Education and now I'm watching Wednesday.

Tokens and Social Life in Roman Imperial Italy is now out for purchase in book or e book form, or as a free open access piece online (!!): www.cambridge.org/core/books/t.... Hoping the book will spread token appreciation - they may be small and poorly preserved, but they are still great. ;-)

I've turned Netflix back on so that we can watch Bodies but so far I'm catching up with Lupin and Sex Education and Heartstopper. Any other recommendations while I have a subscription?

Lovely day here in the Northeast

Sarah Anderson's comic. Her main character walks out side eating ice cream and thinks "it's so warm out!" and then, concerned, "but it's winter." Cheerfully, she thinks "nice to be outside," but then "it's not normal." Then cheerfully, having some ice cream, she thinks "lovely day" and also "THE EARTH IS DYING."
