@standupmaths @donttrythis I hope both of you spotted the infinity dodecahedron in Glass Onion?
I prefer your rhombic version.

Also, soundbites taken out of context 2 years ago should not be used to vilify people. Snap judgements aren't helpful to anyone.

This platform is a place of toxicity and vitriol and is not good for your mental health. Just remember that when you're reading the feed.

Hey Matt, @standupmaths
I saw this book and thought you'd be interested. https://t.co/IMadP7yz2g

Hi @donttrythis I've just been listening to the back catalogue of Still Untitled. Matt Denton of BB8 fame said he'd love to get his hands on Spot from Boston Dynamics. Have you discussed it?

@thephysicsgirl please can you explain? You could use your deflated basketball... https://t.co/c6hu5ZNJIH

Small personal victory this weekend: I fixed my telescope! The power has been dead for years. Dodgy switch was all, but electronics are scary.
I can track the stars again! I can align and slew and curse the clouds. #SilverLining

@LeahAmelia1 It does make a difference. What makes a much bigger difference (Talking about Estrofem) is to take them sublingually, so they go straight into the bloodstream and aren't immediately wiped out by your liver.

@eilatg There's something about Quantum Mechanics! My professor jumped onto the desk to show us his odd socks to demonstrate collapsing the wave function

Revelation in my therapy today: "In putting something off you're not getting rid of it".

I've struggled with this for decades, everything from doing the dishes to fixing a relationship. It's going to take a while to sink in.

@GuiltFemPod could you help signal boost #BanGlinner or even make it a truth to power hour thing? It's happening now.

[Gwen Protheroe @O_Protheroe]

@MouldS You did a great one discussing Gravitational Waves with someone much cleverer than yourself, and their mum. Could you do the same again with Quantum Superposition?
