Last week was our uni's staff awards and I was really honoured to be Highly Commended for both my teaching and also my work on Campus Accessibility. The celebration was rather undercut though, by the stage not being accessible to me, which is particularly ironic given one of the awards I received!

Wonderful to see continued support from staff and students for @hwucu.bsky.social's 5th day of strike action. Our menagerie of picket animals is growing by the day!

A picket line at Heriot-Watt University. Around 40 picketers stand with signs and are joined by picketers in inflatable costumes - a T-Rex, a chicken and a bee.

Why yes, that is my shoulder featured on BBC News. Will happily autograph any shoulder pads upon request.

Yet another fantastic turnout at @hwucu.bsky.social's final day of action for this first week of strikes. Incredibly grateful for all the #UCU members and staff who showed up as well as significant numbers of student supporters for the third day running!

Another absolutely incredible showing on @hwucu.bsky.social's picket line today! We fell one short of yesterday's 60 people in our daily photo but 59 people + 1 dinosaur is perhaps even better! 🦖

Absolutely fantastic to see such a massive turnout for @hwucu.bsky.social's first day of strike action. An excellent showing from our members (and lots of messages of support from those striking from home!) and a wonderful number of supporters too!

Today is a very good day. My partner has returned from Chicago with a very cute #AstroBot figurine and a few hours after that my new AstroBot controller arrived!

Today we discovered that our #corgi - a breed that has been honed over countless generations to herd cows - is allergic to cattle. We have many questions, including - but not limited to - when did he meet a cow!?

Research can often feel pretty gruelling so it's a nice change when something works and your output literally gives you two thumbs up! (yes, it's technically more like "two thumbs to the side" but the wrists are constrained to be at the bottom so this is as good as I can hope for!)

Two 3D graphs labelled "Handshape 6" and "Reconstruction - Code 40". The graphs show dots corresponding to locations on the hand. The two graphs look very similar and both have the fingers tucked into the hand with the thumb outstretched.

Love? Completed it mate.

It turns out that Love isn't all you need when you're halfway through a Lego set that isn't built from the bottom up.

A Lego L and E from the Robert Indiana "Love" sculpture is supported with a skinny tower made of assorted and mismatched Lego pieces. The Lego sits in a display case illuminated by LEDs in the colours of the trans flag.

I always set myself the final end goal of creating a retirement village for my beavers - with everything supporting it run by bots

14 months ago, as Equalities Officer for our #UCU branch, I raised concerns about the misuse of these essential accessible parking spaces. After an extremely protracted battle, permanent signage has been added and a commitment made to enforce blue badges

Not sure it's fair of the BBC to label John McDonnell as far left
