@ChuksLDN @propagandopolis Is it de Gaulle, Chiang, and Stalin vs FDR and Churchill, or maybe Churchill and Roosevelt have already beaten the other three and it's their final, or maybe it's a tag-team with Churchill+Chiang vs FDR+de Gaulle while Stalin is the ref, or maybe it's your free for all rumble...

Hallo @fraeulein_keti. Meine Freundin sucht eine Authorin für einen Oxford Bibliographies Beitrag zum thema Deutsch-Französischer Krieg. Habe mich an Sie erinnert. Interessieren Sie sich? Falls ja, bitte DM an mich.

(Es tut mir leid, wenn es Fehler gibt, ich lerne noch.)

@Merach_ @dwebsterhist Also, sorry for the late reply. I wasn't deliberately ignoring you, it's just that all the academic content on Twitter is very painful so I avoid using the site.

[Isaac Toman Grief @Polscii]

@Merach_ @dwebsterhist @Kyle_Ireton Thank you for your advice. I don't have access to library resources and in any case there isn't really an industry related to my subject—or, at least, one that wants me. I am still very grateful that you reached out and I promise to look into it.

[Isaac Toman Grief @Polscii]

@NC_Renic Exactly the same, even the age (-:

@MuseumCromwell @17thCenturyLady @jdmccafferty @Cromwellorg @HistParl @civilwarcentre @cwpetitions @EnglishCivilWar @UkNatArchives @DrRJWarren @_paullay Yes! I love Mercurius, so happy to know it was first printed on my birthday!

[Isaac Toman Grief @Polscii]

@jdmccafferty So it wasn't just Melanchthon playing the 'literal translation surname' game!

[Isaac Toman Grief @Polscii]

@sharenao Yeah, it's between Richard Grenell and reality

Hi @janeyellene, can you recommend some 19th century-focused accounts to follow? 17th century Twitter seems really active, I want to believe 19th century is the same!

@dwebsterhist I've just finished my PhD and it has already put me right back to the mental pit I was in during lockdown. I've given up on ever making a career. Can't even get a platform, any platform, to say 'yeah those are interesting thoughts based on solid research, we'll publish them'.

@lijukic Can't recommend Iron Kingdom enough ngl

@Mary2Drawz Your cat is wonderful, I just love dogs more. I'm sorry to have broken your combo—but maybe I don't count!

@danbanik Finally got it back, just six (pushing) seven months since submission. It demands complete re-structure, new research, new argument, and in an often very dismissive tone. How does anyone not give up?

[Isaac Toman Grief @Polscii]

@danbanik Thank you, done! If you want to do me and baby researchers everywhere a favour, please ask your senior colleagues to prioritise peer reviewing articles for early careers. 😅

[Isaac Toman Grief @Polscii]

First article of baby academic submitted in Feb, got reviews at the end of Jul in which the best they can say is 'this is half a contribution'. Guess it's time to give up academia?

[Isaac Toman Grief @Polscii]

@FarCanals I could semi-forgive the 'sex appeal' comment as a poor way of putting that even urban professional had serious economic issues and had bigger things to worry about than looking smart ...were it not for the rest?? The only thing I recognise is the litter 😅

@propagandopolis Top ten anime betrayals

@SocialHistoryOx @RGatley Now we've got the answer, can you give us the context?
