33 years ago tonight, 14 women went to bed thinking about their finals, future in STEM and the upcoming holiday season. They didn’t know that these dreams threatened a man’s sense of self worth and that they wouldn’t survive to see their goals and aspirations become a reality.

Guns don't do physics experiments, my dude 🙄. But LGBTQ+ people do. Physics is as much about the experiments and theories, as the people who do/come up with them. You literally can't do the one without the other.

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes! 🤯 Even for me as a nest researcher, these are the craziest bird nests I've ever seen. Today my paper came out on this rebellious behaviour. And it's like telling a joke... A thread. 🧵

If everyone who has been grateful for the NHS over the past 75 years followed and retweeted we’d reach a million by midnight. Please take just two seconds to show you care.

Good evening *only* to the random guy in my local wearing a red and white stripy top who has just walked into the beer garden to be confronted by 20 lads in “Where’s Wally?” outfits who, on seeing him, immediately started chanting “ONE OF US, ONE OF US…”

"'Ha ha' and 'he he' signify laughter in Latin and in English, because they are cried out when laughing." Wonderful evidence here in Ælfric's Grammar that 'ha ha' has been the sound and spelling of laughter in English since at least the 11th century and the Old English period.

people often ask me what a postdoc is. simple: a postdoc is something that transforms as a postdoc
