🚨New Article Alert🚨 Prescribed burning in the English uplands affects the air we breathe, but it remains poorly monitored and under-regulated. Our new paper shows how citizen science, satellite data & #airquality sensors reveal its impact ahead of England’s 2025 policy review doi.org/10.3351/ppp....

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

'very impressive and very funny'. Gosh you are making me blush Oscar πŸ˜‚. I don't think about this specific scenario so much these days, but I definitely think about toilet roll more than the average person now I'd imagine. Get in touch if you want to write something on toilet roll together πŸ‘πŸš½

I don't write much about boxing these days, but I do a little, so watch this space (maybe?)

Sage Journals: Discover world-class research Subscription and open access journals from Sage, the world's leading independent academic publisher.

In a bid to be more active on here than I was on twitter, here's an article I wrote some time ago now. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/.... At a basic level it's about white-collar boxing, and begins to clear up that this form of boxing has a misleading name.

Bluesky feels nice. I'm hopeful. In my first post I'm going with something non-academic: this reworking of/ tribute to Refused's 'the shape of punk to come' is incredible open.spotify.com/album/1fLjNW.... If you like #Refused and want to discover some great hardcore bands, this one's for you.
