Time for me to move on from Twitter.

COP 27 already? It's sort of like birthdays: they come faster and faster and mean less and less.

[The Daily Show @TheDailyShow]

These Fox Business experts absolutely nailed it on Liz Truss 🙃

Great to see this shrimp nutrition project move forward between Canada and Cabo Verde. Well done @AquaNutProf, Chris Parrish,
Fazenda de Camarão de Cabo Verde, @OceanFrontier and @Dotcanafrica.

[Stefanie Colombo @AquaNutProf]

Looking forward to starting this exciting project with Dr. Chris Parrish and @Dotcanafrica on developing sustainable artisanal diets to improve performance in a commercial shrimp production farm in Cabo Verde @dalagriculture @MemorialU

Finally some justice.

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

Alex Jones ordered to pay nearly $1 billion in damages to Sandy Hook families for years of lies that the school shooting was a hoax https://t.co/VhSyOhCYse

[CNN International @cnni]

JUST IN: A jury has decided that conspiracy theorist Alex Jones should pay nearly $1 billion in damages to Sandy Hook families for his lies about the school massacre https://t.co/YNoQw1LcVM

Concerned for my colleagues and friends in British Columbia. This is very disturbing news indeed. Thank you @CBCNews 😂🤔

Missed the #solas_osc2022 in Cape Town, unfortunately. But stumbled on this item from when it all began, during dark, Damp (literally) February days 22 years ago. @SOLAS_IPO

Nothing personal against the Queen but this seems unnecessary and historically inappropriate.

[South Ayrshire Council @southayrshire]

The Wallace Tower in Ayr will remain lit up in red, white and blue up to and including Monday 19 September to commemorate the life of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

@Limpetman I'm definitely triggered. But more by complete no-show of the pink custard of my youth. And what about clootie dumplings? Displaced by profiteroles?

Nice morning for #MORI cruise prep in Halifax. (Maybe not so nice offshore at the moment). #AtlanticCondor #TReX @MEOPAR_NCE

[Douglas Wallace @DougieOcean]

Swiss Polar Day 2022. @TITANICA_ERC presents opportunities for working with Canada on Modular Ocean Research Infrastructure #MORI to broaden access to the ocean for research without custom vessels or using new generation vessels. @MEOPAR_NCE @IrvingShipbuild

[Douglas Wallace @DougieOcean]

New reports from our grad students on their expeditions and experiences. Including our very first contribution in Pidgin! #oceanscience #teambuilding #TReX @OceanFrontier @MEOPAR_NCE @UQAR

@DrYool @AGDco2 You mean staring at 42 gallons. Sorry, I mean 35.

[Douglas Wallace @DougieOcean]

If you want to see what a pathetic, outdated shell the UK has become, check out this incompetent, biased, taxpayer-supported "survey" about use of "imperial units". Roman Empire maybe? Poor Brits!

[Matt Parker @standupmaths]

I cannot believe this is a real question in a legitimate UK Government survey. Even ignoring the typos etc: this would fail KS3 statistics because even 12 year olds know those are some leading responses. https://t.co/kEC1rjnvjY

[Douglas Wallace @DougieOcean]

Certainly a "secret" from me. All for eelgrass restoration but not as a solution to our CO2 "problem".

[CBC Nova Scotia @CBCNS]

The 'secret weapon' in fight against climate change — planting eelgrass https://t.co/Wdqwa6SFGJ

[Douglas Wallace @DougieOcean]

@AndreiPolejack @WMUHQ @AllAtlanticO @gov_mcti Well done. Good subject. First thing for me: word count on "Canada". 😅😅

[Douglas Wallace @DougieOcean]

Welcome back to Halifax, #AtlanticCondor, after high competence support by #AtlanticTowing of complex mission to investigate marine fog. Great test of #MORI concept and vision of @MEOPAR_NCE with support of @IrvingShipbuild. Plus gotta love a surface vehicle called R/V Wallace.

[Douglas Wallace @DougieOcean]

A dream: by the end of the @UNOceanDecade mobility restrictions that discriminate against researchers and students from developing countries including small island developing states will be eliminated. So we can work together equitably on problems of the ocean.

[Douglas Wallace @DougieOcean]

@rwilsonbob @TimHoustonNS @CdEntremontMP We need you here, Robert.

[Douglas Wallace @DougieOcean]

Major public subsidies for ferries from Yarmouth and Digby but no bus service to either town? How can that be? #carcultureNS @TimHoustonNS
