Wondering if I should feel flattered or mortified that colleagues call on me to ask how to invoke existing policy to get things done or get around policy to get things done. And should I feel flattered or mortified that either way, I KNOW? #academictwitter #bureaucratorrenegade

Weird phone response when I asked an AIB Customer Support rep why my card doesn’t work on London transport. He said AIB cards won’t work for that but didn’t know why. ????

Astonished at how broken TFI LeapCard is - can’t easily charge online, stores don’t have top up machines or say they’re broken.

Great roundtable on Bruno Latour. Delighted that @AVastMachine mentioned "Laboratory Life" as one of his inspirations. As an ex-wet lab scientist with a fascination with documents and records, LabLife was one of my foundational works as well. #stsitalia2023

One of the downsides of living near Marlay Park and the summer concerts is that I end up with earworms from has-been bands on Sunday mornings. #rockofages #keeponrolling #genx

Can anyone point to data on how much uptake there's been of grant top-ups (esp. European grants) to employ Ukrainian researchers ? Saw a number of programs advertised, but can't find data on whether PIs applied/how many researchers were supported. Thanks. #academictwitter

I haven't tried for a number of years but attending #STSItalia2023, talking to a student, and an STS friend moving to Ireland makes me want to try again. Who would be interested in a 1 day event, perhaps in March 2024, in getting #STSIreland off the ground?

What travel bag will change my life? Carry on, good backpack straps, looks grownup and not like I'm hiking K2, laptop compartment that can be detached into a smaller backpack (not a tote) so I can go to mtgs/conferences with just the laptop, water resistant, opens fully.

Pro tip: please do your offspring a favor and divest yourself of those hoarded paper clips, handheld calculators, and unused salad tongs. Signed, tired adult offspring of office supplies and kitchen goods hoarders

Home after 8 days of helping my mother unpack her belongings and set up her new place. You'll excuse me if I don't check in for the foreseeable as I need to burn all of my belongings. I may be some time. #decluttering #nothingsparksjoy

What the heck is going on at Stena Line UKIE? My annual trip to Wales is turning into a logistical hellscape of sold-out sailings for foot passengers, mysteriously changed schedules that makes connections with Irish Rail difficult, and raised fares too of course.

I feel that though I've spent much of the last five years studying peer review in grant proposals I actually understand even less now about peer reviews of my own grant proposals. #academictwitter

Why in the name of sweet basil chicken are people still saying "I don't see color" in public settings and not called out on it? #academictwitter
