@robyn_goldsmith The best feeling! Had a student ask my name the other day, I was worried I was in trouble! Turns out he just wanted to say I was a good teacher in the student survey 🥹

The left adjoint to the inclusion Ab → CMon is easily the most overrated idea attributed to Grothendieck. I can't believe we actually use the term "Grothendieck group" -- it's like calling log(ab) = log(a) + log(b) the "Napier formula" or something.

@Kaju_Nut How to bake pi by @DrEugeniaCheng played a significant role in getting me into pure mathematics!

Off to Lausanne to talk at the Young Topologists meeting. First time flying alone, very nervous but also a little excited 😁

@bandcalledcasey Was my first tattoo! Wanted to get something that truly meant something to me! (This rule has since been abandoned for 'whatever looks cool' 😂)

Been at @BristolUni all week for #snaithfest a festival to celebrate the life of Victor Snaith. Met loads of great people and heard so many moving stories from Vic's family and friends!
