strange/nice seeing my first bit of PhD writing sneak out into the world. In the newest @QMiP bulletin, @dan_shepperd @DrRachelShaw & I discursively examine @KenLoachSixteen's #IDanielBlake: what implications does the 'immaculate construction' of Dan Blake have for ESA claimants?

Since July 2021, the number of working-age people newly awarded disability benefits has doubled to 30,000. The success rate of applications, however, has remained steady, at around 40%. THREAD on our report on the rise in disability benefit awards [1/5]

not that I’m trying to dismiss the whole concept, just that sometimes the ‘consequences’ (of being ‘gen z’, for example) seem so broad that “generations” end up functioning more like a catch-all, sociological horoscope 🔮
