[Thread] I will now explain our new study about people cooperating with honeyguide birds, using Lego and graphs (and Lego graphs). This study was a great team effort: @honeyguiding @honeyguide @jesvanderwal @jesslund01 many not on Twitter.

THREAD: What is happening in UK universities is astonishing. Right now about quarter of universities are laying off staff. Almost all universities expect to make a loss this year. And the entire thing is happening in an effort to deceive the population about migration statistics.

This article resonates. Creativity is an optimistic investment in your future. It's near-impossible to make that investment when (for one reason or another) you are fighting to survive.
