I maintain that Terry Pratchett understood how people truly worked better than any author who ever lived, which is how you get paragraphs like this being throwaway jokes

And lastly, 100 years of January to July temperature anomalies over land areas through 2023. Watch until the end...

Man who bunked off every science lesson at school insists he’s done ‘all his own research’ on climate change https://newsthump.com/2023/08/30/man-who-bunked-off-every-science-lesson-at-school-insists-hes-done-all-his-own-research-on-climate-change/
Man who bunked off every science lesson at school insists he’s done ‘all his own research’ on climate change

A 35-year-old man who paid zero attention to his science teachers, or the books he was encouraged to read during his admittedly brief time in the formal education system, is today telling everyone …

As I told you I’m working on a series of new little pieces. I am especially proud of how this last painting has turned out. It is made entirely of acrylic painting 😱 Elephant’s trunk Nebula

I was the victim of an extremely clever card fraud/social engineering hack.

Well, partly a victim since I managed to stop it.

I was called by my bank, as they wanted to “verify some suspect transactions on my account”.

Then things got weird…

Guest post: Piecing together the Arctic’s sea ice history back to 1850 - Carbon Brief

Scientists have constructed a record of Arctic sea ice history going back to 1850 - from some rather unusual sources.

A week to go to get your hands on an original piece!🥳

Which is your favourite? Are you a nebula or aurora person?

I can't wait for these to fully cure so I can add the cosmic dust!😍

100 years of July temperature anomalies over land through 2023. It will get even hotter.

Want to know what my research is about? Follow this thread 🧵 based on a 10min talk I've drawn for a meeting.

The talk was aimed at non-specialist space science colleagues (not the general public!). The slides were built up step by step, but I'm omitting this here & showing only the final graphs, less this becomes a 34-part thread. 11 is plenty enough!

So: "Understanding Winds of Massive Stars Using High Mass X-ray Binaries"
