This is probably my favourite this year so far

The working title is 'Epistemic injustice is smol'

Oh yeah, his work is excellent - if I manage to record a new breaks mix any time soon, I plan to have a couple of his joint tracks with Rick Carbonell on there. I really liked 'Set Me Free' last year too (though it's a bit fast for me to put on a mix).

I've heard of the meat if that's a clue?

I'm starting to suspect I might not be the next David Lewis after all

This was finally released today, and I immediately grabbed a copy because it's a spectacular piece of work - string-laden, cinematic breakbeat goodness that I just want plugged straight into my veins

I'm at the dangerous point of writing a paper where it is written 'in my head' and so I feel like I'm on track to finish soon, but in reality I haven't actually put a single word down on the page and so I'm just being complacent despite knowing how this has worked out for me every other time

I'm older, and also have no idea what/who Josh is talking about

Remembering the event which happened 30 years ago today, and which changed Scotland forever. The families of those involved campaigned hard to make it much more difficult for such an event to ever happen here again, and undoubtedly thanks to them so far it has not.

'Whitesand Bay, Cornwall.' (c1914) There is an obvious overlapping with Laura and Harold Knight's subject matter, but their approach was different. In Laura's work, we can feel an immediacy, Harold is more restrained, meticulous and his work rarely involves people.

Publication day! It’s been a long journey to get to this point, and I’m grateful to everyone who’s supported that, and to @routledgebooks.bsky.social for publishing it.

Jeff Buckley - Satisfied Mind

Whenever I feel depressed about not having enough money, I put this song on, so that I can think about how I don't have a satisfied mind either

Delighted to see this volume out and open access with lots of interesting chapters related to the human right to science. My chapter explores the notion of β€˜epistemic jurisdictions’ as a way of better understanding the interlacing of local knowledge and scientific knowledge under this human right.

Nordic Voyage quietly became one of my favourite labels last year, and this is their upcoming 100th release - I'm not sure how I feel about the Powel remix yet, but the clips for the three original tracks, particularly 'Katia', sound absolutely gorgeous. I can't wait to hear some longer previews.

Have you considered just consulting your own intuitions?

can this be a solution?

It does rather confirm where he wants to take all this. But it's very overt and a difficult sell, hopefully in particular to those already going into debt for an education (not that the latter is a good thing - it just might make some pause and think about what their future looks like).
