Had an amazing week at @OrkSciFest running the Mission to Mars workshop and explaining the importance of Physics and other STEM subjects to Schools all over the Orkney Islands.
A big thank you to @IoPScotland for funding these sessions.

Awsome to see the Aurora Borealis during @OrkSciFest at the Neolithic stargazing sight the Ring of Brodgar.
Great being part of a program that featured the incredible Sun Exhibition at the St Magnus Cathedral.
Thanks to @UCLan @STFC_Matters @Saint_Magnus @IoPScotland @rwwalsh

Alternatively, could we just have @CarolineLucas commenting on a speech by Baroness Jenny Jones, explaining the urgency of the climate situation?

Never forget, is the exhortation.
I find it helpful in remembering to follow @AuschwitzMuseum .
The sheer day by day relentlessness of the posts honouring the millions of people who were murdered can be uncomfortable; but we should, each of us, support the effort to remember.

Over 32,000 new followers joined @AuschwitzMuseum last week. It has all been possible thanks to your incredible support & engagement.
By amplifying our voice & sharing our words you help the world to learn and never forget.
Thank you. We remember together.

Quote tweeting in the hope it counts towards @tarasyoung “interacting” sufficiently.

Concise, humane, accurate.
If, by some miracle, we hear no more on this subject, all that needs to be said has been said in this thread.

Like virtually everyone else, I know absolutely nothing about the events that have led to the statement by Huw Edwards’ wife. But I do know that he is a superb broadcaster. I know too that he has a long history of depression. He and I have spoken about it often, including in 1/4

Here we have a Tory MP mocking a person with poor mental health. It’s not trolling to call a cunt a cunt, Brendan.
I built my anti Tory platforms after my friend took his own life due to Tory covid negligence and NHS cuts.
You’re the reason people want to twat Tories.

Very excited to get a delivery from BeyondStickyNotes.com, complete with a personalised note from @kellyanagram encouraging me to post a picture of my fave card. I’ve cheated, and this is a pic of my *2* faves! Thanks to @LockhartL for inspiring my purchase!

This is a brilliant illustration of just how stupid and morally bankrupt are the arguments of people pushing Ukraine to negotiate with russia. You cannot negotiate with someone who came to kill you.

It was great that you could join us on the #DrTechShow, @Thewhole9years . It was really interesting to hear what you had to say, about digital inclusion, equity and other things! The recording is available here, for anyone who missed it live: youtube.com/live/2S8njnW01-k…

A brilliant, reflective thread about how some medical and scientific figures can manipulate public debate for political reasons, thus undermining public understanding of and trust in science.

That idea that this petition might become necessary would have seemed unbelievable even 10 years ago.

I’ve fallen for the false assumption that “they couldn’t possibly, or wouldn’t, do that” too many times over the past dozen or so years. I’m not assuming that this time.
