@lastpositivist My former employer UWA had “pursue impossible” as its motto for a while. A colleague asked senior management at a town hall once: surely that means “take on very difficult challenges”, right? And in response they doubled down: no we mean pursue literally impossible things

All eyes on LSE Council vote on #divestment this Tuesday, 25 June. While @LSENews evicted its own @lse_encampment students on health and safety grounds, it can still choose to join the right side of history. https://t.co/YS79U3dkPI #LSEDivest
