Despite drawbacks, several good points here: (1) Dundee University is genuinely fighting for its life; (2) some uni management teams in some unis are out of control; (3) the multiple UK govts don't even have a clue what's going on, no controls and no plan... (1/2) www.thetimes.com/uk/scotland/...
Nigeria currency crisis leaves Dundee University fighting to survive
Profuse spending left the institution ill-prepared for a sharp drop in foreign students after Nigeria, a fertile recruiting ground, devalued its currency

Are there ideas without people and events, and can events exists without people and ideas? And we need to think about people and what they do. We need a dialectical approach

Another great artist has left us. Among many remarkable accomplishments in an often wayward but always luminous career, Marianne Faithfull gave us one of the finest, cleverest, brightest, darkest, most heartbreaking Ophelias of her generation. Sweets to the sweet. Farewell.

We really enjoyed editing this book. A wonderful set of contributors, all with something to say. Some know Bob some know the songs, some know this and that along the way. Well worth reading, buying or stealing

I was giving my daughter a bath & she asked why I seemed sad. I told her I published a piece of writing & people were reaching out to me with notes about it & some were nice but some were really mean.

she paused & then responded, “can’t you just keep the nice notes & throw the rest away?”
