I saw cops remove people from Collingwood ahead of the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne. Interestingly, that time, with the street devoid of its usual life, was the only time I ever felt unsafe in my neighbourhood.
I'm incredibly proud to have co-drafted this important and timely report on the need for states to take responsibility for their role in the torture of CIA detainee Ammar al Baluchi.
A very belated "thanks for the shout out" @pagingdrpaige.bsky.social - I promise I'll do a phd one day...
I REST MY CASE

I do not...
There will be a section describing how Sarahs are high quality but slightly unhinged - designed to keep one on ones toes.
Theory: all geriatric millennials have a Sarah for each phase of their life (may also be plural and overlapping).
I'm currently doing PLT with young grads and nothing has made me feel older than hearing them be nostalgic for the 2010s.
This elderly man showed up to support an anti-trans bill in my home state and then, because he had to wait hours to testify, he was stuck listening to queer folks rally against it

Judith Butler: "Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic, because that means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice, and a third, a fourth, and then what happens?"
Seems like a good first post. In just over a week, Matt Warren and I will be reconvening Untermorast for the first time in 12 months and this one is going to be extra special with @pipst.bsky.social joining us on stage for a trio set. Really looking forward to this one! Details in the image.

Here I am emerging from @pagingdrpaige.bsky.social 's ear
Such a special event - and my first time being in a room full of queer and femmo international law nerds IRL. Total joy. (and not dissimilar to hanging out with radio art nerds). Congrats @pagingdrpaige.bsky.social and @claerwen.bsky.social (+ authors!) on your quiblings!!
MIT has a set of books labelled "Open Access" but it's a little clunky to find them on the MIT Press site, and so I've gone ahead and mirrored 400+ of them here:

I've discovered that if you are a geriatric millennial with particular music tastes and an interest in international criminal law, you can make the algorithm really earn its keep by using the search term "interpol".
