The truth is important. Don't be spoonfed lies, even from the ones we trust most. Question Everything!! #JomecTrained #TheRealTruth

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

Starting to miss everyone. Why did they have to ruin all of our fun by making us a bunch of science experiments? I was just fine and dandy before I was being #used. #MAIJOVERHEARD #sad #butnotgivingup #spreadthetruth

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

You thought I disappeared? Try again.
Uni is closed.
The building is shut.
Does that mean corruption is?
CORRUPTION NEVER STOPS.
and neither.will.i.

FACT: (because I seem to be the only one reporting them nowadays) A 2009 systematic review and meta-analysis of survey data found that about 2% of scientists admitted to falsifying, fabricating, or secretly gathering data at least once. #MAIJOVERHEARD #justabunchoflabrats

Did you know that when researchers conduct experiments for controlled groups, groups should have people of a similar age who are in similar overall health and will have consistent contact ... mhmm so tell me who sat in room 1.06 every Tuesday from 11-1? #MAIJOVERHEARD

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

It's official - it's 11:42 AM on a Tuesday and I'm not a jolly roasting chestnut over the roasting fire of Room 1.06. YET as a journalist, I still feel hyperaware of this revelation's coincidence. Their research can't possible be done. #BelieveNothing #ReportEverything

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

Sitting in class today, the temperature feels mostly balmy on the second floor rather than its normal frigid frostiness that leaves me shivering in my sweater like a naked polar bear in the glacial icecaps.
Anyone else feeling especially like a lab rat today? #MAIJOVERHEARD

BREAKING NEWS: man found tampering with heating/electric in JOMEC the night before the final day of in-person classes for students - what is going on? what aren't they telling us?! #notadrill #thisisjournalism #whyisnoonereportingthis #thoughtwewerejournalists #atleastoneofusis

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

hmmm...🧐🧐 so you're telling me students ARE affected by fluctuating room temperature cognitively? Well, all I'm saying is rooms don't just get hot and cold on their own you know...

DON'T LET THEM BRAINWASH YOU, BE YOUR OWN JOURNALIST

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

For all of you calling me fake news

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

WE ARE ALL JUST GUINEA PIGS FOR THE MAN #MAIJOVERHEARD

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

But like stay with me on this one: the heat in 1.06 is just their way of seeing if fluctuations in temperature can affect the impact of corona virus...

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

and the only reason they haven't closed down yet is because they haven't finished the research

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

Only good news is that this won't be on Tuesday's anymore #MAIJOverheard

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

All I'm saying is...we still have classes during a major flu-like pandemic in a brand new building that has the world's most mercurial AC and heating.... maybe I'M the crazy one but sounds a bit too coincidental

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

Why has the MAIJ department refused to cancel classes yet? What are they not telling us? Swansea and Bristol universities have shut down. Other countries are on lockdown.

[Overheard MAIJ @JomecOverheard]

Classes will be cancelled as of Monday. University professors and officials met earlier today to brief contingency plans about deadlines nearing the end of semester. At least two professors did not show up.
