Also, just to say it’s freaking cold in Cambridge. I’ve had the heating on all morning and my hands are still getting numb, I’m at a bit of a loss.

I’ve taken some time away to chill and rest but I’m back now! Hello Meeps! Work is as busy and exciting as ever (just worked on a piece about neural circuits in early Alzheimer’s disease), and yesterday I played Lady Blackbird, which was absolutely awesome. #break #ttrpg #neuroscience #Meeps

'Twas the weeks before Christmas
And Santa was busy
His list was so long

Had a brilliant idea
What if we automate
Christmas this year!

My public answer to someone's public toot on another instance did not appear on the local timeline of my instance.
My public answer to my own public toot did appear on the local timeline of my instance.
Remains testing whether a public reply to a toot of someone else on my instance makes it to the local timeline.
