Reconnecting with family is one of the reasons i came home 😍
This mornings walk. I used to live in a little shack behind that big house but it’s gone now
Sunday walk -around Minnamurra Headland in Dharawal Country - just south of where I lived before I went to the US
I’m glad Maxx is here because I’m about done with the people
I wrote 1200 words today for a truth telling report about the impact of doomed race theory and British colonial hubris (yeah I’m glad they lost the football), now decompressing with Middlemarch and Maxx and waiting for the rain
Working at UniSQ Ipswich campus today which used to be a psych hospital and now has a beautiful library with a garden inside
Monday morning, no more jet lag, back to work
I can’t believe I’m at the rugby next to someone yelling Allez in a kiwi accent
Don’t really see any reason to get out of bed….
Sunny winters day in Brisbane, working on my recovery
We are cancelled. It’s shocking to see the way people treat ground staff when I’m pretty sure they’re not the ones who fucked up the plane
Tying up my thoughts from a long trip to the UK with a few hours respite at St Pancras. I’ve got a lot to think about.
Gave a paper about my new project this morning in this beautiful old building. Gorgeous day in Leeds
Pretty campus! @universityofleeds.bsky.social
Beautiful trip to the North Yorkshire moors today will be moving here to write my debut novel obviously
I am neither religious or into medieval history beyond The Name of the Rose but even I said “Holy Mary Mother of God” at the sight of York Minster
Yes I participated in the commodification of Frida
Starting the morning with a little light reading
Another hot day in London, grateful for an air conditioned place to work
Good grief I’m such a nerd. I am happier to know that the Wellcome library is open on Saturday than I am at the thought of going to the V&A. That gives me three days to get through piles of books like this
Hooray finally at the Wellcome Collection for the first time. This is for a new project on child mental health and colonialism ….
