Hello hello 👋 #IWD2023 is nearly here, and so are companies' cut-and-paste platitudes. And once again we're bringing you the data to see whose support for #InternationalWomensDay is genuine, and who's still got work to do.
Here's a reminder of how it works ⬇️ (1/8)
@AstroRoyalScot@CPRE I did immediately when I saw your post, but there's too many to count 😁 we are very lucky out here, I can see the Orion nebula with my bare eyes tonight, even with the moon being fairly bright 😍 ✨

The moon, Jupiter and Venus looking absolutely gorgeous out my window at the moment - do take a look before they set 🤩.
If the skies are clear with you tonight, please count some stars, be a citizen scientist and help tackle light pollution!

@maythehan Felt exactly like this at the beginning of January. Is it possible to negotiate with someone to ease your workload a little? Having more breathing space is what helped me a bit.

Was der Ukraine nicht hilft: Dein Facebook-Profil mit einer ukrainischen Fahne verzieren.
Was der Ukraine hilft: Deinen politischen Vertretern mitteilen, dass du bereit bist, die Folgen scharfer Sanktionen zu schultern. Und deine gasbeheizte Raumtemperatur um ein Grad senken.
Twitter folks, have ye ever heard someone described as "a caution"
@Clare_Langford remembers our Cork granny saying it; is it an older generation thing? Just a Cork thing?
