My husband @mjowen174.bsky.social is very down and it’s difficult to see.
He had a thriving writing business until AI came along but now he’s struggling to find work.
Please repost this far and wide in the hope that he can find some writing work.

About to date some of the earliest pottery in North America! These were tempered with Spanish moss c. 4800 yrs ago. Charred fibers are preserved in the sherd and can be directly dated! Note the swirly linear voids left from fibers that were burnt out in the production process #archaeology #history

Please support the petition against the planned #closure of #Archaeology at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
Archaeology has been a part of Humboldt-Universität academic tradition for almost 200 years, so closing it would break a long-standing research tradition

Most environmental setting sections of recent site forms tend to just copy paste info about the ecoregion and descriptions of the landform are often vague or inaccurate. The industry has completely deprioritized having a deep understanding of place and it SHOWS 🏺

Was, wenn historische Bilder fehlen? #TerraXHistory setzt inzwischen auf #KI​-Szenen.

Historikerin Sabrina Alber übt im @wisskomm.de​-Gastbeitrag berechtigte Kritik: Solche Bilder verstärken Stereotype und verzerren historische Darstellungen.

Recently did such a targeted review and it was the easiest and quickest review ever.
But the editor knew me and my research, so they were also good at their job.

As someone who's edited for a few years I can only say that these personal messages to potential reviewers really do go a long way. Especially when it's multidisciplinary and you only need them to look at the one specific aspect of a manuscript that's from their field.

For the professional body in the host city to withdraw cooperation over organising its flagship event is a fresh humiliation for the group supporting #EAA President Eszter Banffy, and again calls into question their judgement in choosing to confront members over the policy towards Israel/Palestine.
