It would be cool if the people who benefitted from power structures the most understood them a bit better than NOT AT ALL. 🚮

Agreed. Would have been really helpful when I was searching for a therapist.

Two months into PhD lit review and I am already noticing themes: "Oh yay, so much I want to read" "Oh no. How is there so much to read?" #phdchat #phdvoice

Readers are sending me quotables meaningful to them: "We’re all experiencing woundedness—and that’s where the light gets in. That’s exactly how we come together. The woundedness you feel is not a flaw in you, it’s your humanity." Lindo Bacon, Radical Belonging

Me: Okay let's continue that lit review. Great. Wooo. My brain: So. Question: Does a gif move if no one is looking at it? Me: 🙄 #phdchat #phdlife #millennialphilosopher

Great podcast about the experiences/absence of fat people from discussions around fat. Thinking about fat as a temporary place where connection with self and others doesn't happen. Ooff that hit home. If we are on journeys to thinnes how do we understand our experience as fat🤯

Please can I appeal to you to spend just 6 mins today watching this extraordinary BBC film from the Royal London? It is everything. It’s the pain, the striving, the NHS grit, the intubated twentysomethings, the “conveyor belt of dying”. Please watch 🙏 bbc.co.uk/news/health-55…

There's only one rule that I know of, babies — God damn it, you've got to be kind.

Apparently an unpopular and 'un-festive' question but; "Can I take the decorations down now?" 🙃

Hello 2022. HNY people 🙌 Back on the PhD trail⛰️ and feeling the usual NY rush of making changes. At least this year's resolutions are academia based🤷‍♀️ #phdlife #phdchat #nyresolution

When you research binge eating and you aren't sure if an article is good research or just a pleasure not to read fatphobic anger inducing bile 🤷‍♀️ #phdlife #BEDresearch #EDresearch #fatphobia #researcherfuelledbyanger

Reminder: We have absolutely no idea what fat people's health outcomes would look like if they weren't constantly subjected to weight stigma, weight cycling, and healthcare inequalities. (the research we have suggests physical and psychological health outcomes would be improved)
