Excellent presentation on Refuge Reimagined by @luke_glanville and @markrglanville - I've been in this field for a bit, and this was one of the clearest presentations of Christian responsibility for refugees that I've heard. Convicted!

Thrilled to be joining this amazing conference tonight and for the next three days. Outstanding keynotes and panels, intriguing new formats and platforms. Only three hours to go 😎#MLot21
How great is this? 201 presenters. 45 panels. Workshops, roundtables, and film screenings. Keynotes by Karen Barad, On Barak, Karim-Aly S. Kassam, Rahul Rao and Nisi Shawl. A veritable cornucopia of all things temporal. #MLoT21

This has been a labor of love - a book about #scifi and how it can help us think about future military challenges. Coming in October 2021! https://t.co/W3JM93iQKK

So angry to hear this. Solidarity with colleagues whose careers and indeed livelihoods have been treated so callously.
All of this 👇. At the @GCRFGenderHub we've spent months re-thinking, re-writing and otherwise responding to COVID-19, while this team of phenomenal researchers and partners has also produced critically important work on gender, justice and security https://t.co/VAzXOrBhEQ 1/3

I'm firmly with Shue on this one. The danger, however, lies in the tendency (of some) to overestimate our ability to constrain, to the point where we actually lose sight of the fact that war is "shit", and it cannot be made otherwise (only marginally less "shit").
This description of the laws of war by Henry Shue might be my absolute favourite 😂. I also think it’s bang on.

Thank you @AJ101East for the chance to speak with @ali_fowle about the #MyanmarCoup & ongoing protests in Myanmar. The military's brutal repression of peaceful protesters has been awful to watch, and I'm grateful for the chance to offer some thoughts #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
Who is the Tatmadaw? And why did the #MyanmarCoup happen? Hear from #Myanmar experts @hmarston4 and @JohnBlaxland1 on @AJ101East. Watch the full story: https://t.co/zWokzOMlAr

At @Politics_Oxford we are looking for a top IR scholar who wants to be part - but also lead - a dynamic, excellent and pluralist IR group. We strongly encourage applications from women and/or candidates from Black and minority ethnic backgrounds. Really.

This new @rhyscrilley piece is a thoughtful, insightful assessment of the PCWP agenda over the last decade, but it's also way more than a 'state of the discipline' paper, posing incisive and challenging directions for future research. Essential reading

Way to go @ali_wedderburn on this smart, thoughtful, and interesting contribution to a field that's seldom as much fun as it should be. I'm looking forward to when this "drops". I'm hoping to teach extracts from it for this year's World Politics class.
Proofs have arrived, so I guess now is as good a time as any to mention that I have a book coming out this summer! It's about humour's role in the creation, maintenance and contestation of political identity, and I am super excited to be releasing it into the wild
