@BklynMichael42 @drewharris102 @SocialistFigz @HossRoDah @TheOmniLiberal The revolution may not be televised but maybe it would help if basic history was?

Thanks to anonymous commenter on fb, found a phone number and @vueling have agreed that the flight will be fully refunded - soical media for the win. Vueling - your website needs an overhaul but your customer service agents are lovely :)

[Portia Ungley @Portiau]

oh wait - the links aren't working on your fb bio either - the "this page seems to be on holiday" message is not really making me smile. Give me a number to call through DM so I can sort this out within the 24 hour period

[Portia Ungley @Portiau]

Trying to get hold of someone at @vueling - no means of contact through website where it states "Courtesy period If you made a mistake when you booked your flight, you have 24 hours from the time of purchase to change the date (time or day) free of charge." Reach out please asap

[Portia Ungley @Portiau]

@vueling ooops - the numbers seem not to be at that page - will try fb or insta I guess

[Portia Ungley @Portiau]

@vueling seriously there are no telephone numbers on that page

1/4 This is our a forthcoming publication. It’s still in press. The book, launch in May-June shares ways in which research and scholarship is co-produced, co-performed and proclaimed as particular kinds of knowledges and truths in and beyond the academy is radically changing.

I couldn't figure out where the comma(s) in "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" should go, so I hit myself in the face.

Really interesting thread about why ADHD looks like one thing to NTs but feels completely different for NDs - I often coach using the body's happiness chemicals to undo writers block but am now working on an ND version #watchthisspace @RawLight1

ADHD might be easier for neurotypicals to understand if you know that adhd means that our baseline dopamine is lower than a neurotypical's.

A thread on understanding ADHD a little bit more.
