1. Dear All Art Galleries: WARNING.
I love you you all. But I don’t care about your beautiful perfect installations. Please place benches there for the disabled and we geezers and who take a long time to look.
(continue to my idiot ultimatum in next tweet.)

So not only does the @univofstandrews think it is ok to encourage students to travel from all over the world, they think it is ok to bring in so many new students that we can't offer them accommodation. Any ideas as to how quarantine will work in these circumstances?

This week alone, I have spent over 14 hours in meetings discussing Diversity and Inclusion efforts at our med school. While important work, I could have used this time for school work and research projects. This is what the minority tax looks like. #BlackintheIvory

So an Amazon exec with absolutely 0 museum experience can become director of a National Museum and yet us with masters degrees in Museum Studies are struggling to find jobs? Completely demoralising to all young professionals. theguardian.com/culture/2020…
