The Lion of Iran has awakened. Iranians are rejecting Islam, the Islamic Republic, and Sharia Law en masse. I've never been more proud to be Iranian. ❤️

The country on strike. Massive numbers on the streets. Internet cut. Mullahs seen at Moscow airport. Yet the regime still shoot at protestors. Many dead. But the people keep on coming. The courage of our fellow human beings is staggering. #IranRevolution2026 Tehran tonight ⬇️

Who's on Bluesky, then? I'm in the market for a pointless new addiction, apparently

It’s not a replication crisis in “psychology research” It’s a replication crisis in all RESEARCH Replication project STARTED w psychology because social psych studies are easiest/inexpensive to replicate. Problem is considerably worse in cancer research& heart disease research It’s systemic & baked into academic/research incentive structures Let’s stop pretending this is about psychology
Dr Beech 🌤@DrDBeech

D. Kahneman on the replication crisis in psychology research: "The key problem is...that research is expensive; expensive personally & in terms of money. When you're a researcher, you know what you want to find, & that creates biases that you're not aware of. A lot of this is simply self-delusion. People very honestly deluding themselves about what they find."

@JonathanShedler Living with a border collie is a masterclass in neurospice. OCD + ADHD + a Protestant work ethic = an unholy combo (and - annoyingly - like seeing myself in canine form) 😅

@Mark_A_Bowles Isn't Twitter weird, like before Twitter you would've been totally free from some rando reader live-tweeting their "reading experience" (I'm not sure how I feel about this myself!) - but also, I'm pro-telling-people-when-they've-done-something-amazing, so fuck it I guess?!

@Mark_A_Bowles Finished! Felt like doing a standing ovation at the end - bloody well done! Beautiful, really. Can I send you some questions (prob "this is more of a comment than a Q", let's face it) or is that weird? I don't have a column or (god forbid) podcast, just curious about a few bits!

@O_hOireachtaigh @Panorama_J Is there a similar word in Irish? Feels like there should be?! In an earlier version, I included a section about synonyms for hiraeth in other countries - but of course, every country thinks "their" word is unique! Saudade (Portugal), sehnsucht (Germany), dor (Romanian), etc

@O_hOireachtaigh @Panorama_J Oh thanks v much! All I can see are things I'd change 🙄 Pleased to report I've stayed in Cardiff since moving back shortly after writing that! The hiraeth thing does seem particularly strong among the Celts... took til I was nearly 40 to realise I just cannot live in England!

Coming out of Twitter retirement momentarily to implore you to read @Mark_A_Bowles' ALL MY PRECIOUS MADNESS, which I've just started and am utterly obsessed with, and to give @GalleyBeggars some love for having the biggest balls and best humour in contemporary publishing 😍💪

Alex Samond's last tweet. Relevant to Wales w @PrifWeinidog grinning like a fan girl with her pop idol, as to John Swinney. Alex is right here as he was for 40 years. Alex was brave, not afraid to be despised. Others want to be loved. That's difference btn leading and following.
Alex Salmond@AlexSalmond

Tony Blair used to whine that he never really compared the Scottish Parliament to an “English Parish Council”, it was only the nasty Scottish press who twisted his remarks! In fact, he did so compare. (1/5)

@StuHennigan @Mark_A_Bowles @GalleyBeggars Yeahhh this is the thing: I got a job that is basically writing but actually well-paid (human rights org) - which is obv fucking GREAT - but also, I don't exactly feel like writing a bit more before/after a day of work writing... Why aren't we from inherited wealth ffs?!

@StuHennigan @Mark_A_Bowles @GalleyBeggars Ha, that sounds terrifyingly similar to my own trajectory tbh! I'm good, not been writing enough, but been working loads in essentially my dream job, so that's something... they should add extra reading & writing days in between the real days?!
