I'm very excited to announce I'll be starting a position as associate lecturer at Aberystwyth University this Semester 😁 Onwards and upwards!

An absolutely amazing song from @gavinmikhail, literally made me feel so much 😭

Had an absolutely phenomenal time at the @PrideinSTEM event at the @RoySocChem yesterday for #LGBTQSTEMDay. It felt amazing to be part of an Incredible community and meet some amazing inspirational people! Thanks you all for your hard work!

To get a sense of how fast DART was going it took this last picture less than a second before impact but it was still 4 miles above the surface 🤯 that is so fast

Here are the first images taken by #LICIACube of #DARTmission impact on asteroid #Dimorphos.
Now weeks and months of hard work are now starting for scientists and technicians involved in this mission, so stay tuned because we will have a lot to tell!

There it is, folks. The largest solar prominence I’ve ever witnessed. This is what I spent all day yesterday chasing down as it lifted off the solar chromosphere. The resulting CME was launched millions of miles into space.

Today I pet a bridge doggo. The guard deserves little.

After a rocky start because of a hotel and their ignorance of neurodivergent needs, I've actually had a really nice time in Prague so far! I've met great people and it's been amazing to talk shop with some of them! Gonna spend my last afternoon attacking the tourist sights now 😁

So, Scotland may have just become my favourite nation in the UK. The most stunning scenery, the most beautiful local language and the most lovely people. Plus the temperature is sub 20. I'm moving to the highlands 😍

There's a surprisingly large number of people who are F1 fans who became fans of F1 due to drive to survive. That's great, but they also religiously follow the opinion of who to love and who to hate based on how drivers/team principals are portrayed. It's a bit sad tbh.

*when the villain in the movie has a PhD*

Viewers without a PhD: Ah, they are just saying he’s a smart villain. Makes sense.

Viewers with a PhD: Ah, grad school and academia drove him to madness. Makes sense.

Stackoverflow is offline for maintenance. How will the maintenance guys know what to do?

@asmerchant34 How much of it is graphs? 👀

@DrCDArmstrong Damn, I've never been so seen by a chart in my whole life. Not only do I do computational chemistry but I've been called out for my emo nerd part

What happened is scientists discovered chlorofluorocarbons were bad for the ozone, countries believed them, the Montreal Protocol was signed, and CFC use fell by 99.7%, leading to the stabilization of the ozone layer, perhaps the greatest example of global cooperation in history.

@mathewjowens It's really quite sad that such a thing still exists. Especially the still current expectation to take their partners surname. Perpetuating that they "belong" to said partner. It's very dark ages.
