It's our last open day before Christmas! Pick up some last minute gifts in our Museum shop and see the incredible Charlotte Johnson-Wahl exhibition - last chance before 2025!

@CrazyMuseumMum Yes! We had stockings in the morning to keep us occupied, possibly one small present but otherwise waited for main presents until after lunch. My partners family were the same, but everyone else I know always did it first thing in the morning.

Cis people: I need you to understand (and help others understand) that “the trans debate” is NOT relevant “to only a small number of people” but to everyone. Thread below for why:

(This is focused on cis women, but cis dudes I need you to listen too. You are also in danger.)

@ellie__miles Congratulations!! 🎉🎉

@Bromley_PH Is that a Louis Wain card next to it? 👀👀 @bethlemmuseum

[Bethlem Museum of the Mind @bethlemmuseum]

Amy & Michelle have put the tree up ready for Saturday visitors today! We’re open 10-5 with free talks at 12 & 2, our shop is well stocked with gifts for Xmas & it’s the last day to see The Passions of Richard Dadd Revisited before the cats of #LouisWain take over next week!

If you don't think what's happening at the border right now has anything to do with museums, think again. Nationalism, xenophobia, and us vs. them are all-too-popular themes in museums. Not everything is as blatant as this border patrol propaganda exhibit in Liverpool. #NoBorders

@wewearblackpod One of the best things I saw at Bloodstock this year was wheelchair crowdsurfing to "Wheels of Steel" - best vid I could find https://t.co/AQIcbnz06O

Amy & David are at @OrtusMaudsley today with a free drop-in session to show how the medical records of the past can help shape mental health perspectives in the present, and reveal how YOU can get involved!

@Tess_Machling @PoppyTeaches We did something like this when I was a family and schools learning volunteer at Museum of London Archaeology! Mostly pennies etc, but the thing they were most excited for was a crisp packet from the 80's, which they carefully cleaned and recorded. Great fun.

#OnThisDay in 79, Mount Vesuvius begins stirring, spewing tons of molten ash, pumice and sulfuric gas. It goes on to destroy and suffocate the inhabitants of Pompeii, Herculaneum and Stabiae.

Here's an eye witness account, by Pliny the Younger.

@AllfatherUK Haha we gave in and bought chairs today - the extra day has completely wrecked us!
