Congratulations rUsSiA (formerly known as the USA) on becoming a Republic of the Soviet Union! #DonaldTrump2024 #rUsSiA #Trumptin

“The world turns on its dark side” It’s a chilling opening line. One that ought not to resonate so profoundly now, and yet it does. …it is winter. #Tippett #TrumpNaziRally #FarageRiots #Ukraine

@haveigotnews Something’s gone wrong with this HIGNFY acount recently. The punchlines aren’t working properly. Is it written by AI now?

Artificial Intelligence has been used to create a digital replica of Michael Parkinson that's so accurate it'll be able to conduct actual interviews, once work is completed on an AI Rod Hull

@PhysInHistory Charles Ives thought so. Or maybe he just couldn’t be bothered to give an answer. #Unanswered #Question

Is it possible that some questions are unanswerable? ✍️

@PhysInHistory Nothing, literally ‘nothing’. The existence of ‘nothing’ is under researched. If ‘nothing’ exists, then that must be a candidate for the strangest thing in the universe #nothing #StrangeThings #StrangerThings #EvenStrangerThings

In your opinion, what is the strangest thing about the universe? ✍️

@deidrejowen The bread literally shows the numbers 1 and 3, (as others have also said) so it should be called ‘the 13’

I always cut 13’s sandwich in different ways. It entertains both of us haha. We’ve named a few of the cuts (Wonky, Zooble-ized, Horizon)… what should I call this one?

@PhysInHistory Dark matter isn’t dark, it’s translucent Still, a rose by any other name is just as hard to find.

Will we ever directly detect dark matter, or is it forever invisible? ✍️

@RickRubin Yes, there are lots of different types of #collaboration Here’s my book on the subject. amazon.co.uk/Coproduction-C…

@PhysInHistory Can ‘we’ ever change fundamental constants? Look, ‘we’ can’t even look after our own planet well enough to avoid extinction. So, on balance, probably not.

Can we ever change the fundamental constants of nature, or are they unchangeable? ✍️

@playinglesshurt Surely he should be playing Tarrega Gran Vals! #Tarrega #Nokia

#jokeoftheday Can you stand another Für Elise joke? #Beethoven #music

@PhysInHistory Higher, yes. Being, no.

Genuine question: Do you believe in the higher being? ✍️

@PhysInHistory Dylan Thomas: “Time passes. Listen. Time passes.” Parmenides: “Time doesn’t pass. Look. It just doesn’t” McTaggart: “check out the B side. You can put the needle where you like but the grooves are already fixed.” Douglas Adams: “Time is an illusion. Lunch time, doubly so”.

What is time? Is it a real thing, or just something we made up? Why does it always seem to move forward? What do you think? ✍️

@klhicks912 I’ve co-written a book in collaboration. Makes sense. #coproduction

Would you ever consider co-writing a book with another author?

@Komaniecki_R Not a case but you should play ‘This Song Sounds Like Another Song’ by The And Ensemble open.spotify.com/album/3P5bkU8A…

Discussing "your song sounds kinda like my song" IP lawsuits tomorrow, are there any I should add? Men At Work/Kookaburra Ed Sheeran/Marvin Gaye Katy Perry/Flame Coldplay/Joe Satriani 2 Live Crew/Roy Orbison Dua Lipa/Artikal Sound System Radiohead/Lana Del Rey/Hollies

@interesting_aIl I do hope it has been reported to ‘The Society for Putting Things on Top of Other Things’

In Finland, there is a rock that has been balancing on top of another rock for 11,000-12,000 years

Just nudging towards 1,000 plays… open.spotify.com/album/6b2YGFgr…
