Fact: you can tell how close an academic is to a deadline by assessing the tidiness of their work and living environments.
Months away: organized mess
Couple of weeks: very tidy through procrastination.
A few days: bomb site.

This is the highest England mens***** have placed in the World Cup since 1966.
The women’s team came in second against Spain in 2023. Don’t forget that.
France England is always great sports' drama
But my favourite memory was the 2015 game, a few days after the Bataclan terrorist attac. The entire Wembley stadium sang the Marseillaise in solidarity
Gives me the chills every time
A very "cordial" gesture in a very dark moment
For 16 years until 2014 Julie Hesmondhalgh played a trans woman called Hayley Cropper on Coronation Street. Nobody screamed. Nobody rioted. There was no national meltdown. People just watched the show and got on with their lives.
During those same years Helen Joyce worked at The Economist and Maya Forstater was a tax advisor and JK Rowling just wrote books.
Oh and Nadia won Big Brother!
So what changed.
Not trans people.
The only thing that changed was the hate campaign.
Freddie Mercury came to the UK as a kid because people that looked like him were being killed back home in Zanzibar.
In the UK, he formed Queen.
In the UK, he became a global icon.
But he didn’t become British by getting famous. He became British by building a life here.
Wow, what a career! 🙌🏾
Scaz will always be one of the best players I have ever had the privilege of playing alongside. She’s knowledgeable, talented, humble and a great leader. She really does epitomise the word ‘legend’.
Congratulations, @EmilyScarratt on a phenomenal career 👏🏾👏🏾
Absolute euphoria! 😮
Lucy Bronze buries her penalty and Smilla Holmberg cannot hit the target - sending England through to the semi-finals!

I’m SICK of saying it, but I’ll say it again. Asylum seekers can’t claim benefits. You need an NI number to do that. Asylum seekers aren’t staying in 5* hotels. Asylum seekers get £49.18p a week to live on. Could YOU live on that? NOPE. So stop pretending they’re living it large.
