‘The book’s limits keep crumbling: 𝘖𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘢𝘭𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘝𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘮𝘦 is starting to circle ideas about our interwovenness as people, and what we owe to one another while we are stuck in this container together.’

I keep wondering the same thing
Absolutely horrendous night in Doha - loudest explosions yet 😔
"This entire process was never about me, never about any threat to the public and never about 'terrorism'," Mo Charra said.
"It was always about Palestine and about what happens if you dare to speak up. About what happens if you can reach large groups of people and expose their hypocrisy."
Brilliant article
One thing that makes this war even worse is that it’s happening in Ramadan- by the time it’s time to break my fast, I’m so stressed by the sound of explosions I feel too nauseated to eat and I’m too wired to sleep. Tough evening
My husband has lived through the first gulf war, an ISIS siege in Syria, the Russia- Ukraine war and now the Iranian missiles over Doha. If anyone from Netflix wants to make a movie out of his life story, we’re ready to hear your pitch 🫠
Awful morning in Doha of one loud explosion after the other. Building shaking. 😔
In Ramadan as well. What a ghoul.
Ted Lasso is actually getting me through living in a war zone atm 🥹
okay, Ill bite.
What do you think the point of reading for and writing a literature review is? The process of reading and writing is crucial for THINKING. Your ideas are shaped by all of this, offloading it to gAI, no matter how "good" you think gAI is at it defeats the purpose entirely.
when you are an author (or a student) putting in texts even "just for editing" into gen-AI, you are at risk of plagiarism bec this is how the algorithm works. in old-fashioned academic integrity lingo, you participate a mass "collusion". we end up with 30 essays with the same structure & argument
Thanks so much Sen 💚💚
In Doha: I’m Libyan, husband is Syrian, closest friends here one from Gaza one from Bosnia. Why do wars and genocide keep following us? How may times must we start from scratch?
It’s been one of the most difficult days here in Doha , just non stop sound of explosions and it’s so scary. Hate it so much. Hate that this is happening YET AGAIN
Thank you!
In Doha. It’s not feeling very good.
Good morning 💚💚💚
Most beautiful thing you will read

Ramadan Kareem to all those observing, may it be a month of peace and blessings
Fantastic analysis of the case by @alangreene.bsky.social
Here are some thoughts on the Palestine Action ruling for the @lrb.co.uk. The ruling shows the importance of the UK Government's national security assessments being challenged - which doesn't happen enough under our current system.
‘I just use AI for brainstorming’ : an actual academic.
Like, how are you openly admitting that you are outsourcing the most important part of your job, thinking, to a plagiarism robot? Are you not…ashamed?
