@KEHplantsci Is that a Steggie. That was (is!) my favourite dinosaur too!

Mini-plantsci had her first day at school today. This was her first picture for her teachers with the explanation “this is a dinosaur with spikes and this is the massive rock that made the massive hole and made all the dinosaurs die” 😂

@astacus Thank you ☺️. Only very much a beginner at the moment so cannot guarantee the results will that closely resemble the photo but we’ll see 🤭!

@astacus Lovely photos - I’m attempting to learn watercolours, do you mind if I have a go at the lighthouse? Also, have heard that blue sky might be the way to go. I’m going to investigate as I’ve also about had enough of Xitter!

So proud that the Neurodiversity Symposium winning at the @LivUni Staff awards for Outstanding Contribution to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion! This event could not have been what it was without an incredible @LivUniHLS Team! Was a real personal and professional high.

Give a neurodivergent person a problem, and you'll get a solution.. but possibly not the one you were expecting #neurodiversity

Cackle!

Tea and toast first, then we'll figure out the rest of the day.

This is a labour of love. I hope that one day soon all meetings with be #inclusive and all #DisabledInSTEM scientists will be able to feel welcomed journals.biologists.com/jcs/article-lo…

@UrszulaMcclurg This is an amazing read. Congrats!

@ellielou_uk @FromPhDtoLife Im glad im the only one with old school but effective systems 🤣. Mines in excel not word, but sometimes I even add things I’ve just done that weren’t on my list for the pleasure of deleting them…

@FromPhDtoLife I block time in outlook but I also have a word document "to do list" which I colour code. I find crossing out a completed task in Word very satisfying!

Academics and PhDs juggling multiple projects: What project management system do you rely on? Notion, Excel, Kanban board, Trello, or other tools?

@elinorchapman @drlornayoung @bostonmarathon That you can DO a 5K is pretty impressive as far as I’m concerned. My 5K speed is walking…!

@drlornayoung @bostonmarathon Gosh Lorna, I feel tired just thinking about it. You 10k speed is my 5k speed! Haha!

What a fun Monday 🤩 @bostonmarathon

people say “you need to start living in the real world!” but they forget that the real world includes lupines and string quartets and Rembrandts and rain falling on cobbled alleys and fireflies and furiously red autumn forests

@elinorchapman @Liverpool1207 Owner retired I think. I miss Rennies!

@Liverpool1207 What happened to Rennies? Is it moving or just straightforward shutting down? Do we know the reason?

we place too much emphasis on “being a success” and not enough on reading in the bath and being able to make a particularly good crumble and getting excited about a new kind of bird
