Further to my tweet about the PhD opportunity - it isn't as obvious from the advert, but the funding unfortunately isn't guaranteed as the project goes through a competitive process for funding following applicant selection.

celebrated my phd graduation a few weeks ago! pictured here using my degree certificate to hide my pregnancy! while I’m overjoyed, it’s also been bittersweet for a reason many people (esp. British academics) would do well to care more about:

Staff not allowed to shut the doors in the freezing cold @TheWorksStores this weekend - shocking waste of energy and money in a #ClimateCrisis and #CostOfLivingCrisis. Plenty of other shops keeping the doors shut, shape up @TheWorksStores

Staggering new chart from the IMF. We all know that increasing energy costs hit low income households hardest, but in the UK that impact will be the second biggest in the world, and the differential with the best off will also be the biggest. What is the gov’t going to do?

Great thread!
What is causing the energy crisis? Why can’t the government just make it go away? It’s complicated, so let me try and explain. Including what the government should do, could do and can’t do. 🧵
Great video in keeping cool in your home :)
