"If you've been impacted by recent U.S. funding cuts, we're offering free online tickets for TICTeC, as coming together as a community is more important than ever." ... said no conference organisation for any other country ever!
So there can be solutions to increase participation when needed.
Speaking of impact...
Hope you're well Louise!
Oh I thought you were still in Netherlands but you moved to the UK. Ugh, yes, welcome to this shitshow.
I had to resort to some AI bot on Telegram to get an appointment for Netherlands. It worked. Otherwise it was absolutely impossible.
It's disgusting!

Well then came the era of 'girl boss' which is almost equally annoying though...
Having watched a particularly annoying version of it recently, I can confidently say that it's fantastic that the era of manic pixie dream girl is over!

I'm writing this cause someone who's in a similar situation might see it. The first rejection to this article was the day before my viva and because of that I went in feeling so defeated. Now after all these years, I know how random and subjective this whole publishing world is.
Thankfully, R2 thought that there was much value to record London's policies and the editor also decided to support the article and now it's one of the most downloaded articles in the journey although it's published only a few months ago.
Anyway, after being rejected from another journal last year, I finally sent it to Digital Geography and Society. R1 said that this article could only be an average conference paper with no revision suggestions to improve it. Just kept rephrasing how bad it was in 5-6 different ways in their review.
a particular journal sent me only 1 review that was dismissing the article entirely on the basis of its level of English to the point of being completely insulting without any comment on the content. The editor was similarly rude, and said that they didn't have to provide reviewers' reports (wtf?!).
This is basically from my PhD dissertation and indeed one of the first chapters I wrote. I tried to publish it since 2017 in various journals whereby some gave great feedback and some didn't provide any feedback despite not being desk-rejected.
This thread might seem as humble-bragging, but in fact it's about the reality of academic publishing.
My latest article has become one of the most downloaded articles in the journey right in between Mark Graham and Maros Krivy whose work I truly admire. But listen what it took to get it published:
Encounters with the third kind...
W-A-S-H-I-N-G-T-O-N baby DC!
Love it and was lucky enough to have listened it live last year.
One of my biggest fears is to be asked which department I am working in. "Digital Humanities" makes zero sense to the great majority of people.
When are we going to see Round 2???
