@GribbenC These are great!

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

Anyone else have constant flickering of lights this evening in south Wicklow? We’ve been in touch with @ESBNetworks numerous times and it’s been going on for over a month. Particularly bad tonight.

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

@GribbenC Just want to step right in. Beautiful.

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

@GribbenC It was stunning here in Wicklow too.

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

@rhetorician Yeouch! Sorry to see this. I hope you’re feeling less sore now, and resting lots.

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

@rhetorician My current state of mind.

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

Thank you, yep, she’s the queen - majestic Mya they call her.

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

Mya thought bubble: Please can we stop talking about rhetorics of epistolarity in Katherine Philips’ poetry, for five minutes? Sorry Mya, I’ll try. #earlymodernwomen #katherinephilips

@rhetorician @RoccoHowat1 I’m not sure it ever stops shaping our worlds. Survival, coping patterns , relationships, relation to ourselves all informed by that trauma really

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

@rhetorician Ganging up on me! 🤣

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

@rhetorician @RoccoHowat1 So sorry to hear this Danielle. It is a profound experience that changes one and ones relationship to everything. Still very much reverberating in my life now.

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

@rhetorician @RoccoHowat1 The notion that there is a time limit is insensitive and unkind. I lost my dad when I was 12, suddenly from a heart attack. It’s nearly 38 years ago and I still struggle with it.

[Dr Sonya Cronin @SonyaLCronin]

So important as some of these gorgeous species are endangered.

[The Bee Guy @the_beeguy]

As always, many people asking us about #bumblebees at the moment - WHY THEY’RE SEEING THEM ON THE GROUND - so here’s a thread to explain what they’re up to.
Please #retweet.
Every #queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce new queen #bees for next year!
