The @monashunilib has opened a very special exhibition "Hoping Against Hope" - a collection that spans 500 years of Ukrainian print culture and displays rare books alongside several spectacular animations and photo voice (it's inspiring!). A highlight is hearing Nick Cave, "be brave, little snails, be worthy of this journey". Kudos to the amazing team behind this exhibition of resilience.

Reflect on your time in school - did you ever encounter degrading language, harassment of teachers, or notice sexist ideologies? It's happening more than you think.

@elonmusk Maintain the sense of community Twitter has built & sustained.

Leverage Twitter’s greatest assets of connection, belonging, & social support.

Alleviate concern & worry that Twitter will disappear.

View a virtual community as a real community & celebrate virtual togetherness.

When a 90s alt/rock anthem now lives rent free in your head because you are a writer/researcher.

PSA: You do belong, you can belong, & everybody is welcome.

We posit that competencies, opportunities, motivations, and perceptions are central elements in strategies that can be used to increase our individual and collective sense of belonging for the betterment of society. https://t.co/JDzhJObfTo

Did you know there's a text-to-speech option for journal articles? Think journal articles as audiobooks!

A new psychological model of peer-review with @waterlego @ProfLeaWaters @ProfLucasWalsh @wehmeye

Totally controversial: In your peer-review, you don't need to write a 1-2 paragraph synopsis explaining to the authors what they did. Spoiler alert: they already know.

A feeling of rejection can dramatically undermine our sense of belonging and can, at the same time, create not only immense emotional anguish but also mimic the experience of physical pain (Allen, 2021).
