Closing off my twitter threads with proof that this summer I got to the formal end of that part-time PhD💜
As much as I loved my #phdlife twitter community for its support & inspiration all this time, not loving the X vibes these days, so heading back to LinkedIn from now on...

@PhDVoice @Academic_Tasks @PostdocVoice most important skill I learned from my PhD was to apply persistence in spite of the self-doubt

.@aleshadf, our Head of Policy, kicked off the #EthnicityPayPenalty event:

"Feminism has a bad reputation for not including all women. If we don’t explore the differences and how some women are more harmed by the patriarchy then we will never achieve liberation for us all."

love to hear of non-commercialised spaces in busy city centres, including those dedicated to community, quiet contemplation and - for those who wish - prayer.

@stalbansparkrun You're so welcome! Always a pleasure. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️😎🥰

[Dr Mary Ann le Lean @MaryAnnleLean]

I'm glad I could marshal this morning - always a pleasure volunteering at the @stalbansparkrun. You get a warm welcome, a clear explanation, and it's always a joy to see everyone from start to finish. I recommend it to anyone who's able to help out every so often.

[St Albans parkrun @stalbansparkrun]

We're very short of volunteers for this Saturday. Please can you help?

Check out the roster on this link and email us at the address on the top of the page with what you would like to do. Thanks.

1 in 5 men aren’t taking any pat leave due to financial concerns. A system that sets up mothers as the unpaid default carer ‘is at the heart of women’s economic inequality’ says @WomensBudgetGrp. 100%

Urgent reform of parental leave is needed ⬇️

@TamsinRussell @chippedpale I'm just getting my head around Calendly for exactly the same purpose, seems to make sense so far...

Yes, the Coronation music was wonderful. Conservatives have cut arts funding by a third in the last decade. Government cuts to the BBC mean they’re losing 20% of orchestra places. Music teaching in state schools is in freefall.

Who’s going to play at the next one?

[Dr Mary Ann le Lean @MaryAnnleLean]

Came across this today via @1000plateaus (for which, thanks).
Great 33min watch for any 'outriders' seeking to challenge the Common Sense. Just the boost I needed today to wrap up my thesis summary ready for circulation + start prep for @BUIRAonline summer conference presentation

[Tara Brabazon @tarabrabazon]

It is time to begin (again) during this time of fear, despair, loss and disappointment. Why research? Why read? Why write? Why even bother thinking? To answer these questions, let's summon the Outrider. Let's begin (again). #phdchat - https://t.co/254dLPraUX

The delay as the PM decides on Raab's future is stressful for all of us working to deadlines.

But for no one can it be more stressful than the many complainants, left hanging in real-time, as a political figure makes a political decision on a process they were told to trust.

[Dr Mary Ann le Lean @MaryAnnleLean]

I quietly decided at the start of the year not to buy tickets in 2023 to any play or musical that isn't written or directed by a woman.
Very pleased to catch the penultimate show of Sylvia @oldvictheatre the other week😍
Got to admit, though, I'm saving a fortune on theatre tix🙄

I was curious to know, though, why the seasons danced together in a left-right line-up of Spring, Summer, Winter then Autumn; but curtain call was S, S, A, W. Is this a @TheRoyalBallet tradition?

[Dr Mary Ann le Lean @MaryAnnleLean]

Watching the @TheRoyalBallet live broadcast of Cinderella with my adult ballet classmates - in awe of the performances! 😍

I was so pleased to see this news - congrats to all involved.
Made all the @mssocietyuk team's fundraising in last weekend's London Landmarks Half Marathon all the more satisfying. #LLHM2023
