This imp’s response tells you just how much the Trump administration cares about casualties. Not a jot.

Outstanding
Thrilled to be speaking in this beautiful space, #ConvocationHouse, for the #OxfordLitFest 2pm, 24 March, about #AgentZo, a story of female heroism & achievement.
But you could get a ticket just to enjoy this room… part of @bodleian.ox.ac.uk, adjoining the Divinity Schl but 2 centuries its senior!

This made me swear out loud. What a clown!
I know Germany is working very hard on its vergangenheitsbewältigung but come on! Perhaps not DB’s finest hour… other than the obvious of course.

Something as heinous as the Milice in #WW2 France doesn’t just spring forth fully formed and ready to do evil - so let’s go back to #WW1 and find out what the deal is…

@lmbd1418.bsky.social read an interesting passage in this book. A woman in a highly dangerous situation finds solace and comfort in caring for her donkey. She does get away with her donkey. Very touching.
#OnThisDay in ’91 Ayrton Senna won at Phoenix in the new McLaren MP4/6, one of my favourite #F1 cars: high-revving 3.5-litre non-turbo V12; 6-speed manual ’box; big front & rear wings but no other wings; fat slicks; brilliant, iconic but simple livery; oh... & it sounded awesome!
For people who don’t take allegations of violence against women seriously:
I visited a few years ago, very interesting.
Listeners will see our Apple Podcasts feed on their apps have now updated properly - apologies to those people affected, but you can now enjoy our discussion with Walter Reid.
Enjoy
A question for gamers and for those who know the industry. I hate multiplayer games. There is nothing in them for me…and yet this is pretty much all that is offered on consoles now…games for 12 year olds when there are plenty of folks with a lot more £/$ who’d like something different I’m sure…🙄🤷♂️
Thrilled to have been awarded a Vandervort prize for my recent article "The Invention of the Kamikaze: Dissent and Resistance in the Japanese Military" by the Society for Military History, as one of the two best articles last year in the Journal of Military History!
It was my pleasure. Introduced me to host of characters I would encounter in further reading.
Is there such a thing as a good and reasonably up to date book about vehicles that have been used by the UN. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever even seen a book about the history of the UN per se…anyone read a good one?
@andreawulf.bsky.social many thanks for Magnificent Rebels, fantastic book.
Thoroughly enjoyed the pod. The problem with WSC and India is nuance; public doesn’t like nuance. I bought Walter’s book Douglas Haig: Architect of Victory in 2006. As I recall a good book and refreshing change from ‘Blackadder’ caricature.
Opposition to the United States' military action against Iran has risen by 10pts among Britons over the last week

The key message here is the total collapse of my ambition to buy fewer books in 2026. 2
Picked these up today. The Deserters is Booker long list nominated and it intrigued me. Alone In Berlin was on impulse. Mind you I do think it might have been recorded by Katja Hoyer a wee while ago. 1
