@Flipping_Pages @ThatKerryHudson Highly recommend moflo - lovely people, nice cafes, quick train ride to town center. Only major downside is match days at Hampden when the football bams are out! #1 tip be sure and apply for a residents permit if you drive or you risk getting towed/fined during events.

I've launched a #newsletter because I like finding out about random stuff. If you like finding out about random stuff too, you should sign up! Here's a link to issue 1, in which I talk about octopus brains, sweatpants and being jealous of Kate Beckinsale.

@reddestroar Literally there is no other message that excites me as much.

@HarvardBiz Ah yes, women doing MORE unpaid work is the obvious solution to sexism

[HEX @HexScience]

Are you sick of the patriarchy taking your seat? God knows we are! Read about @vonderleyen being the petty b*tch we wish we all could be in this week's issue. Also why miscarriage care needs rethinking and tackling sexualisation in sport... https://t.co/ZF440xYcvV

Working on some lovely sweary content for this weeks issue of @HexScience and it appears Word has some opinions on my phrasing. You’re not my mother, Microsoft.

@reddestroar Excuse me but I live in the south side and I can’t have been murdered more than maybe 4 times.

This week, dust off your ancient ovaries and join us at the bottom of the fertility cliff to celebrate the news that uteri don't become irrelevant at 35. We also tackle COVID science, BMI nonsense and some absolutely pointless menstrual gloves. https://t.co/f679ccycSB

[HEX @HexScience]

Get your eyerolls ready for our myth-busting debunkathon! The mythical Jorōgumo (aka, the WHORE SPIDER) may be a legend of the past, but there are plenty of stupid myths about women that still persist. We kick 'em to the curb where they belong https://t.co/QAq9gZYz6l

[HEX @HexScience]

For the honour of Grayskull our new meaty issue is here! Featuring a carousel of BS, a big FU to knicker-shamers, a massive shoutout to #WomenInScience AND an interview with the fabulous @fatfertility 🙌🙌 https://t.co/IUAKKJJjjf

[HEX @HexScience]

This is how seriously violence against women is taken. This is a perfect metaphor for the silencing of women.

Summon your “big vagina energy” and dive into this week’s misogyny-busting issue! Featuring kick-ass Fukushima mums, a potential breast cancer test and beautifully glazed labia. Oh, and a cat makes Woman of the Week, which we think is cute. https://t.co/kdGcxveEZD
