I like to think the trees are saying ‘good to have you back’ after being off campus for a week 😁 @OpenUniversity @OUGradSch

The scarcest resource in life is not time, energy, or love. It's attention. Succumbing to distractions is a decision to lower your cognitive, emotional, and social intelligence. Concentration is a precious commodity. Your most important priorities deserve your undivided focus.

So my mum sent me these leggings because she recons I have the personality to fit them. Makes me want to use the word ‘groovy’ for apparent reasons 😁😁

Had an awesome time with Prof. Sara Haslam and a few @OU_FASS PGRs at our in-person w-i-p session today. The conversations went very deep and it was awesome to have a safe space to share challenges on our PhD journey that we don’t always get to voice.

The focus on South South (intercontinental) and North South migrant flows is quite novel

Are there any guidelines for what one can/can’t put into a presentation to an academic audience? I swapped a wordy PowerPoint page for this👇🏾 for the methodology part of my presentation today 😁

The comments are making my eyes sweat 😅 Never go into a debate feeling you only have the facts. (I understand the serious issues underlying this debate but I’m reposting this clip for the comedy as an aspiring carpenter)

Amazing that Talk Radio: 1) Voluntarily chose to put this out. 2) Apparently believed this made the guest, rather than the host, look bad.
