My friends and ex colleagues from Sociology at Goldsmith's are being made redundant in one of the most incoherent, avoidable and short sighted decisions in UK HE in recent years. I'm gutted for them. And for the future students denied what they offered. This shouldn't be happening.

also useful in discussing the merit and importance of artwork by terrible people. Chinatown (1974, I know, sorry!) was a seminal work in setting the tone and structure of modern cinematic mysteries.

Submitted it with wrong title page didn't I! And this was not evident to me because it's not included in the "pdf proof you just review before hitting submit". Argh.

The headline of this article had put me off reading because universities are so much more than students. Happily the body of the piece reflects this
Makes pretty unambiguous case that we need more funding because "too big to fail"

Reminder that Aaron Swartz was facing 35 years in prison and financial devastation for trying to programmatically download and open the contents of JSTOR, which led to him taking his own life. But OpenAI is going to scrape all of academia and make billions by plagiarizing it.

Does anyone know how much you have to donate to Labour so that you get a tailored policy response to your hatefilled ramblings? I too will struggle to vote for Labour based on their appalling backtracking on trans rights, if I donate Β£20 will Kier listen to me?

(5) This rationalisation is supported by the simplicity and certainty of the Facebook targeted advertising algorithm which produces a coherent audience and interpellates users as fertile subjects whose choices are both biologically determined and only available through clinical intervention.

(4) We say: ART is represented with banal ambiguity wherein potentially disruptive forms of biogenetic relatedness and arrangements of kinship are derisked by an overarching narrative of simplicity and sameness which excludes men, messy genealogies and explicitly queer forms of kinship.

(3) We argue that exploring this topic is necessarily personal as it begins in personal experiences with these technologies, but that it is not inevitable that an autoethnography follows. Cool, right?

(2a) Why would you want to do that? Because expanded biogenetic families is a bit socially risky and points to a different model of inheritance. So it reproductive technologies need to be discursively de-risked to refuse queered outcomes

(2) We argue that these technologies don't just combine in mutually beneficial ways to target the 'right' audience, but that the division of users, bodies, and reproductive imagination into neat binary categories is about controlling the imaginative and social possibilities of egg donation

The article is about what happens when soliciting egg donors meet the shadowy world of Facebook algo-targeting (1) We synthesise literature on algorithmic imaginaries with literature on assisted reproductive technolgies and the construction of fertile, genetically-desirable subjects.

Because of _reasons_ it feels an appropriate time to revisit "One donor egg and βa dollop of loveβ: ART and de-queering genealogies in Facebook advertising" which I co-authored. You can read it open access here: journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

I remember calling the council about my postal vote for EU referendum and them telling me they didn't know if they would all be dispatched at all because there was such huge demand and printers couldn't keep up. Imagine that's a factor again now too.
