I've used Bitly for QR codes before and their blog says they let you do 2 dynamic codes/month on a free plan. I've also used Adobe to generate free codes, but I think you'd then need to create a permanent URL and redirect form there. There are probably better options out there!
You can join the discussion later this week, on the rise of "Global ‘Anti-Gender’ Politics: Nationalist, Populist and Feminist Convergences". This 2-day conference is free, online, and features 5 panels + a keynote by @reproutopia.bsky.social. Hope to see you there! #AcademicSky #PhilSky
A timely intervention, analysing the metaphor and coloniality of the possessive paradigm of rights. A Wynterian reading of Lugones' critique of purity, the paper challenges claims of a zero sum clash between trans women's and cis women's rights, proposing enmeshed rights as an alternative. #PhilSky

Thank you to Tim Huzar and everyone who contributed to yesterday's Critical Intersections Symposium at KCL, it was brilliant! Next to me here is Luqma Onikosi, whose fascinating paper explored the concept of "African Philosophy" and called for its recontextualisation within "Pluriversal Epistemes".

And a huge thanks also to @ucddublin.bsky.social, the conference co-organisers! There's never enough characters in a post...
Massive thanks to @thebsp.org.uk and conference committee for accepting my talk at #BSP2025UCD. I'll be speaking on "Ontological pluralism and phenomenological realism in trans-inclusive worlds of sense". Congratulations to all speakers, I look forward to meeting in Dublin! #phenomenology #philsky
New book, available for free for its first 2 weeks! Thomson is an incredibly clear #Heidegger commentator, esp. on #technology, onto-theology, and the History of Being. He's critical and thinks the "unthought", offering a "heterodox, left-Heideggerian postmodernism"

Some cool new art/sculptures along the Black Rock boardwalk in Brighton: "Black Rock Beachcombers" by Anna Dumitriu and Alex May. 3d-printed collages, this one's kind of like how I imagine The Borrowers would build bird houses 🔨🐤 blackrockbeachcombers.co.uk
Got it ordered to my uni library, and am now just waiting for it to arrive! Looks like a great collection, well done everyone involved!
A blue sky fit for Bluesky here in Brighton. Has Spring finally sprung?

In a 1923 lecture, #Heidegger paused momentarily, asking "Problem: What is woman?" He then very quickly and casually returned to the history of "the concept of man" 🤔 So much for the question of Being... www.google.co.uk/books/editio...
There are so many reasons to question Heidegger's selective, speculative, and problematical "histories" of Being and philosophy. The 1923 claim that "the history of the interpretation" of Genesis 1.26 "begins with Paul, 1 Cor. 11:7" is *wild*, and only the latest of such claims I've discovered.
So, a mouse got into the house... 2 things I've learned about mice: 1) They love mixed nuts, and will chew through several bags to reach them; 2) They're anti-EU apparently? #BrexitMice
