Hi Julia,
I’m totally heart-warmed to see how you’re using your blog here; the regularity of the posts is awesome and there’s a nice variety going on; short reflections, notes & links, glossaries of terms… etc.I’ve told a few people that blogging is a practice, like meditation; the only way to do it badly is not to do it at all! Looks like…[Read more]

Hi Ed, glad you got your first post up. Would love to see another one soon. Blogging is like meditation; the only way to do it badly is not to do it at all 😉

Hi Zainab,
I really enjoyed reading this post – and it’s a treat to see your Inclusivity posts coming up on here too. I’ve said to a couple of people that blogging is a practice, like meditation – the only way of doing it badly is not to do it at all 😉 Don’t stress about it having to be thorough and polished… it doesn’t (unless that’s wha…[Read more]

Lindsay Jordan commented on the post, Maskell and Robinson – on HE, money, and professionalisation, on the site Doctored 10 months, 3 weeks ago
Thanks so much for this! I’m writing up at the moment and working on a chapter on secularisation and the disenchantment of the academy… so the essay you sent is strangely synchronous 🙂

Lindsay Jordan wrote a new post, Psychedelics as a technology: Tool or weapon?, on the site Doctored 1 year, 1 month ago
A friend put the view to me recently of psychedelics as a technology that has been advantageous for human evolution, but has also been exploited by some groups to further their own ends at others’ expense.
