Academic writing hot tip: play live piano jazz on repeat while you do those final edits. When the applause breaks out at the end of the hour, it's for you too :).

First year PhD me: Why do I need a research question -- isn't it clear what I'm trying to do??? Final year PhD me, while peer reviewing: Where is your research question? No, it's not clear what you're trying to do!!!!

This story is a humdinger. Evidence for the win!.
It's Friday. Have some history. So you know Hadrian's Wall? Well for over 1000 years everyone thought it was built by someone else. Until, in 1840, John Hodgson, an unknown Northumbrian clergyman published the LONGEST footnote in history. Read on. /1
