Another month, another record

The 12th consecutive of its kind, in fact

May 2024 was the warmest on record

The circled dots in the beeswarm chart are the most recent 12 months

Last night at the discussion time of the reading club, @TanyaMMacDonald mentioned that so many people talk about reflective practices and pragmatism, but only traces back to Dewey. She was interested in knowing who influenced Dewey?

That’s how she found Jane Addams

I rarely post but that's cause I've been busy getting my hands dirty! Such a lovely time @StirUni!

[hermione (she/they) @hermionemiao]

My brilliant colleagues have just launched this genius online tool for plotting where you think a parking space could be swapped out for community space - including data on access to green space, multiple deprivation and levels of car ownership.

@misshrchambers It's very difficult especially if you have negative thoughts flouting about- easier said than done sometimes but one step at a time- 15 minutes at a time. You can do this!
