Amazing, haha

I'm going up to Newcastle for an afternoon/evening next week, any recommendations?

Nice!! And yes, I reckoned that Obama was pretty much the most idea candidate ever for president and yet he drone bombed children, among other things

Obama made me an anarchist. That and a fairly drunken and sleepless night talking with some anarchist archaeologists

Myself and @mtrc.bsky.social are running a workshop on Games and Archaeological Play (GAP) at FDG 2026!
Short papers of up to 4 pages are due by April 5th. We are interested in any work that broadly relates to video game archaeology. See the full CFP here:

"Air raids are not only wrong. They are loathsome and disgusting. If you had ever seen a child smashed by a bomb into something like a mixture of dirty rags and cat’s meat you would realize this fact as intensely as I do." - J.B.S. Haldane, 1938.

There’s a military installation 100m from my daughter’s primary school. There’s a WWII bomb crater in their playing field. Ffs people. Like anything could ever justify this shit.

What began as a reply expanded into broader thoughts about the Guardian article on repatriation of human remains.

One aspect of this whole thing is the need to invest in deep, meaningful, collaborative, international historical research, looking at multiple institutional archives (not just in museums) and personal ones where available.

YAAAAY congratulations!! So very pleased for you.

Slide that demonstrates that mental models suffer when an archaeologist just uses photogrammetry. The slide text says: Model of mental model creation during photogrammetry Relatively little interaction with complex mental processes that are key to interpretation in archaeology

Teaching Fieldwork & Digital Recording in our special topics module today. I'm still forever salty that one of the reviewers made us take this figure demonstrating the failings of photogrammetry for the creation of mental models out of our Aide Memoire paper. 🏺

As is often the case sadly

Muna in the sunshine in front of her title slide for Wadi Gaze with the textures and histories of a river map.

Our third CISA seminar and the brilliance of Muna Dajani and how to speak of a river! Oh how she presenced that 9km of the Wadi in Gaza - people and heritage and ecologies!!
A big thank you to our amazing audience for their thoughtful questions and insightful discussion -

Our H&S team would absolutely freak out

Love a thread full of north arrows

post a meme made by you

Haha me too

Yeah, it looks like they took some photos from Bikaner Camel Festival and made a fiction ethnography. Interesting, no?

I know, right!

I love it so much!

tbh I do know what camels smell like haha

A photo of a camel being led by men. The camel has intricate patterns cut into its hair.

Everyone once in a while I come across something that reminds me that we have no idea what things looked like in the past.

My daughter is 9 and she’s really enjoying the Ministry of Unladylike Activities series

Glad you are okay. ❤️

Ah I meant to say right. It’s like I’ve been up half the night looking at the news 🤪
