On #InternationalWomensDay it seems very appropriate to recommend to everyone Invisible Women by @CCriadoPerez A brilliant read.

Great comment from Reddit about the truth behind the Imane Khelif situation

@LNER Morning! So many updates today! Is the 1200 Kings Cross to Inverness running ok? I’m not seeing any mentions amongst the weather/disruption but there’s a lot going on!

[Kim Thain @msthain]

@jac_siuhaj Sticky toffee pudding?!

[Kim Thain @msthain]

@jac_siuhaj Next time we’ll meet!

[Kim Thain @msthain]

@jac_siuhaj I love how you’re taking photos of all the food on your trip! I’ll be looking for recommendations for my next trip!

[Kim Thain @msthain]

@trafficscotland any word on what’s going on at the #A68 south of St Boswells? Moved about a mile in 40 minutes and no sign of it clearing?

[Kim Thain @msthain]

Not that anyone is likely to care, but I’m over on Threads now. Find me at the same username - @msthain

@DanHinchliffe4 I'm actually going to be at the 106 squadron memorial day in early July this year. I don't suppose you're going too? Either way, I'm happy to share what I've found out?

[Kim Thain @msthain]

@DanHinchliffe4 Hi Dan. I'm SO sorry. For some reason I opened up my notifications and I've just seen this?! I've been doing quite a lot of research, but mainly know things though a contact Clive who wrote a book on the squadron.

With there being snow on the ground on some parts of the North West it seems like the perfect time to announce our Winter Competition Runner Ups!

Take some advice from Sandy & Sean and follow their slogan!

Hmmm. I just had a bizarre experience, involving a global news organisation and a trillion dollar corporation. (I got caught in the middle, so... owch.)
It’s not the sort of experience the people involved usually talk about in public… so I think I’ll talk about it in public.

We have some diminutive new recruits joining us for the festive season…

‘Elf and safety always comes first, so they’re being given their PPE and a site induction!

[Balvonie Park @BalvonieP]

We got together last weekend to plant around 420 saplings on the scrub land behind Balvonie Street, already owned by residents.
They were received from the @WoodlandTrust after Rachel and Pete sent in a successful application through the #QueensGreenCanopy scheme @QGCanopy

This still remains one of the funniest bits of news footage out there https://t.co/Ia1SgjY8ai

First they came for the parody accounts… and I was pretty shocked, because there are actual Nazis on this platform that should probably be dealt with first.

@ForestHills1903 @jim_metcalfe @richardosman @CalSleeper You’re not the first to have sent me this story today!

Here's a 1-minute video showing--in the words of visualization hero @EdwardTufte--the "compared to what" factor for today's amazing @NASAWebb image. Thanks to the @WWTelescope for making this possible, and @ADavidWeigel. I only wish @NASA and @POTUS had shown the image this way!
