Wonderful end to a great day celebrating 💯 #WomensLibrary at @lselibrary.bsky.social @fotwl.bsky.social with Sally Alexander & Mary Evans reflecting on their interactions with its collections & archivists. It shaped their scholarship & feminism & this in turn influenced those coming in their wake.

As the storm comes in, as good a time as any to say why I'm not saying much about politics right now. I refuse to hand over my attention to it. I'm well aware. But I'm choosing to imagine, live in, and work hard for, a positive future here, where we find ourselves. Resist, dissent, solidarity all.

When I'm feeling at a low ebb and a bit burned out, Tim Robinson's writing is a good restorative. And his maps of the Burren, Connemara and the Aran Islands are just magic. Always loved this quote by him: "Irish placenames dry out when anglicised, like twigs snapped off from the tree".

We are in awe of the determination & bravery of Nikita Hand as she endured the civil process to seek justice for the brutality she received at the hands of Conor McGregor. We hope that the verdict today gives Nikita a sense of vindication and will help her healing and recovery.
