Don't tell anyone, but back when I worked there I liked to pretend those tunnels were part of a Doom-style FPS game. (Yes, that's my hand holding a small tripod as a makeshift gun. Don't judge me.)

A rescuer’s job is built around a simple idea: when everyone else is fleeing, you stay.

Five rescuers were killed in a russian double-tap strike in Kharkiv. At least five more were injured.

They arrived after the first strike. Russia waited for them and struck again.

Dear researchers,
I am sick of #Elsevier and their antics (ridiculous APCs, inaccessible articles, unauthorised data-mininig, etc.) and want to avoid publishing with them as much as possible.

Can you suggest good journals in the following topics / fields (society journals welcome):

1. #microalgae
2. #molecularbiology
3. #crispr
4. #sustainability

#opensource #openaccess #academicresearch #academia

Please #boost so I can reach other academics.

I am so wildly in love with #London at the moment ❤️

Rode my bike into work early this morning along quiet main roads, then took a meandering route back home through the prettiest parks. Now sitting in my favourite park with cans, enjoying the buzz of summer. This city is such a sexy beautiful place❤️❤️❤️

I feel like this whole Anthropic export ban thing should be a wakeup call to anyone outside the US that if you've been newly developing a dependency on a proprietary US cloud service the government could decide to restrict export access to at any moment, you've made a strategic error and should probably reconsider that.

GOOGLE: So I notice you've never clicked on the ✨️enticing sparkle✨️ in the corner of your mail client.

ME: Yes, that's because I don't want to use it.

GOOGLE: But would it change your mind… if it were a confusing melange of colors that screams "at no point did a designer look at this before it shipped"?

Did you know there is exactly one joke allowed on Wikipedia?
There is a page listing all the cetaceans, and if there is no CC photo of them, they use "cetacean needed" instead of "citation needed"
