The best tribute to Dolly Parton is that she regularly and repeatedly refused to have anything to do with Piers Morgan

RIP Dolly Parton.

Never met her, never interviewed her (despite decades of unrequited requests) but thought she was utterly fabulous in every way.

Ciao, San Marino! 🇸🇲 Another microstate added to the list. Lots of walking and plenty of hydration breaks today, but the stunning views made it all worthwhile. #SanMarino

After a long semester, and before the madness starts again in September, a bit of sunshine, good food and time in #Rome and #Italy sounds like just what we need. 🇮🇹☀️

There are many questions to be answered. What happened to Professor Jason Arday is deeply disturbing, and the level of scrutiny he faced was unprecedented. Many posts and comments were racist and dehumanising. RIP Jason.

One of the most rewarding aspects of raising a bilingual child is watching them begin to use both languages. Our 2-year-old is now counting in #English and #Spanish, and every day he surprises us with new words in both languages. #bilingualism #parenthood #toddler 💙

I was asked to peer review an article for a journal in my field. On reading the first few pages, it soon became clear that it had been written with AI. Needless to say the quality was bad. Result: Reject. Lesson: #AI can be useful, but don't let it write your paper for you. #academia

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels. Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on. And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking. Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy. It's a power grab.

As much as I dislike Maduro's regime in #Venezuela, make no mistake: the US armed aggression is not about "liberating" a sovereign country, it's about seizing control of its oil reserves.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Right. The UK-EU deal seems promising, especially for exchange students and young(ish) workers. It remains to be seen whether such a 'deal' will translate into more EU students applying to British universities over the next years. #Brexit #EU #newdeal
