GIBLIN IS DOING THE FRINGE!

Come see me lament the fact Albert Einstein ruined my life in a show which is 1/3 science, 1/3 fiction, and 2/3 bad maths.

Section 28 didn’t come out of nowhere.
It came from a society where 75% thought homosexuality was wrong.
From a society that feared the sight of a man in drag would corrupt.
From a society that believed ignorance was better for children than any knowledge of gay lives.

I am so moved by the #youth these days. The unity around fundamental values that they are displaying gives me real HOPE that "We The Peoples" can still make this world a better place.

[Dr Benjamin Giblin @BenjaminGiblin]

I think I haven't already said this so...

This month I started a Stephen Hawking Fellowship @PhysAstroEd!

Excited to work on lensing cosmology with this award from @UKRI_News.

Also SH has always been a huge hero of mine for personal and physics reasons so I'm well chuffed.
