Maybe its the overcast sky, maybe it is writing about imagined futures, but I've finally got around to looking at the interesting work on existentialism in IR (e.g. 👇). To go along with it, a great comic: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

That this is a typical 2025 headline makes me sad.

For what it's worth, our MIR seminar on Policymaking in Practice, w/ @justinalger.bsky.social and George Mina, had a great discussion in-person in class yesterday answering the big question: 'What is IR for?' The campus was also packed with students

Happy that the first Technology, International Relations, and World Order (TIRWO 👇) book with @routledge will be coming out soon! @clebinder.bsky.social's book will be examining the production of EU borders, security, sovereignty and political community via lab politics of border tech 👏

Working on a talk for VCE Global Politics teachers on disinfo, misinfo, uncertainty and IR. Want to use a clip from 'They Live'. Made mistake of reading comments on Youtube. It seems lots of folks think it is a documentary. And now I'm going to lie down.....

One of the ISA hotels is trying to freeze our panel and audience. Room is maybe 65F. The hotel kitchen is next door to the panel room. Don't eat the burgers!

Gather from folks at the bad place that the new Imperial College London logo redesign not going over well. Are they just going for a retro/8-bit vibe?

There are some great Lyle Lovett songs that hit the mark (If I had a boat). Pete Seeger had an extensive catalog of children's songs. My kids also like some Philip Glass 🤷‍♂️
