The norths "will make landfall" this week.

At least the endtimes will be satisfying to map.

[Ordnance Survey @OrdnanceSurvey]

Our calculations have discovered the three 'norths' will combine for the first time in history this week🧭

True north, magnetic north and grid north will combine at a single point - starting at Langton Matravers, a village just west of Swanage #3Norths

Video game reviews these days are like

"This expands on the previous game's complex themes asking how we break the cycle of intergenerational trauma

"Also there's a cool new race to kill."

Let's hope the government legislates as hard to stop extreme weather disruption as they do to stop protest

[Just Stop Oil @JustStop_Oil]

🚨 BREAKING: ROADS & TUBE STATIONS BLOCKED

⛔️ This morning, flooding caused severe delays on the District, Piccadilly, & Overground.

My somewhat cynical take on bullies in academia is that they’re a feature, not a bug. I touched on this with an earlier tweet, but the qualities we commonly associate with “top scientist” in academia are extremely present in the kinds of people who bully others.
