Think I’m hitting peak PhD. Three weeks until submission suddenly feels like an incredibly short amount of time. The urge to panic is very real 😱🙏🏼

Luke the Nuke in the crowd is somehow reassuring #mufc

My nerves are shredded. The fighting spirit out there is unreal…and whatever the result, that’s massive #mufc

Some excellent editorial in the Observer today…tougher times really do lay ahead. www.theguardian.com/football/blo...

From bad to worse. Good on Wolves. At least someone got a new manager bounce.

Beatles 64 has some lovely footage. Most enjoyable.

This is getting better. Would be great if Mason Mount got one in now…and a hatrick for Razzy, obvs.

Had a lovely time on BBC Radio just now, chatting about ageing, lads mags, returning Christmas presents & cancelling plans at the last minute. Always great fun to see Jo and the other guests 🙏🏼🥳

Just been to the lido where the temp has halved (from 14 last time I swam, to 7). Only managed five minutes and a post-sauna dunk, but they were five glorious minutes in the sunshine 🥶 ☀️ 🔥

Can’t stop thinking about the plot line where Mrs McMahon is routinely drugged so her husband can cavort with his mistress while she sits in front of them, catatonic in a wheelchair. Nothing has ever said “education” more than that spectacle, tbf.

In my profile pic, I am dressed-up as Harley Quinn. This is not my standard look. Just saying.

So the 7th World #Journalism Education Congress will now take place in San Francisco in August 2025. The theme - “is it time to reboot #journalismeducation?” - could not be further up my alley. Going to give it my best shot (the abstract & the spectre of an 11 hour flight…the latter is not my forte)

Classic Monday scenes: @beardoftooting.bsky.social is laying on the sofa quoting the Daily Mail (“Gen Z are ruining sandwiches with woke fillings”) and Mumsnet (“oooh…theres a baby era piercing scandal!”). If Bluesky fails, he will keep me up to speed with all the must-know news.

Back in the UK, ready to dive back into my #PhD “writing up” phase. Now I can stop fantasising about who could have finished my life’s work posthumously if the plane went down or I fell off a cliff… No getting out of it. Definitely going to be me 😜 Hope to find more Blueskiers into #creativity btw.

I do hope the no1 movie on Spanish Netflix - ‘Hot Frosty’ - is available when I get home 🔥🥶

Perfect afternoon in Ibiza. Sun shining on the hotel pool and a garden wedding reception in full swing. The turn - a solo violinist - slightly affecting the vibe with his staccato version of Smooth Criminal. And they say romance is dead?

Last day down Ibiza…should I purchase this cardigan and bring the vibes home? It’s very me…

Hello to all the Reds and thanks for following me back. Hope the switch to Bluesky will coincide with better times ahead for us all ❤️ Looking forward to watching together here on 24/11 ⚽️👀

Three days left in Ibiza and then I’m full-steam into the last three chapters of my thesis on journalistic creativity & journalism education. Headline: I’m reintroducing the term ‘eudaimonia’ to the masses (lol). Feels like Bluesky will love it…

Johanna Payton @johannapayton.bsky.social · 14/11/2024
Highlights of the day so far: finally getting my paws on a bottle of Dos Hombres mezcal and clocking a life-size Bumblebee (the Transformer) on a luxury apartment terrace in Talamanca. Ibiza delivers again.

Ibiza, on message. So great to be here taking a breather from my research…and out of season, when the number of tourists is sustainable. We’ve had a super warm welcome on our favourite island 🍒❤️ #ibiza

Today is the day I joined Bluesky live from Ibiza. A change is as good as a rest, so they say.
