@NETTram why isn't the tram at University of Nottingham moving?

@anguspratt I'm very sorry to read this, Angus. Thank you for all you have done. I wish you peace.

@Katia_Finance @THR She? Do you mean Philippa Langley? She was on the side of the defence, not the prosecution. She's happy with her portrayl and wasn't the one suing.

@THR That portrayal was wild, honestly. Glad she stood up for herself

@NETTram the tram that left Middle Street at 1810 heading to Beeston interchange has 3 kids on bikes following it, one has grabbed hold of the windscreen wipers and is being towed. There's a no.36 bus behind them that might have cameras.

@edwinhayward None willingly, and I would actively try to remove them where possible.

@jessamycarlson Well done!

Delighted to say that I have been elected a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society in recognition of my contribution to historical scholarship. A small glimmer of light in an otherwise brutal week, but this has absolutely made my day.

@postoctobrist Don't forget librarians and cursed books. To be honest, we're usually trying to do our best for the book, and thus less likely to invoke the curse than archaeologists.

given that curses aren’t real it must be so fun to be an archaeologist and dunk on all the curses

@iainlee Nah, it's a song about what the Knights In White Sat In. The perils of pale coloured trousers!

@sarky_sheena Do I have to wait until 7 to open the wine or do you mind if I start earlier?

Anyone want to hang out later, drink wine, maybe put on some sad songs and have a little cry? Say about 7pm, cool, you bring the wine.

@CoraCHarrington Yup, although the replies have also taught me the proper word for it. Now I can be horrified and educated.

Y’all ever think about how the reason your fingers feels slimy after spilling bleach on them is because the bleach started turning the fatty acids in your skin into soap? Just me?

@Noirchick1 Probably that guy who gets eaten about 5 minutes into Jurassic Park. Oh you mean I get to choose, rather than Fate?

If you could be any character in a film, who would you be???

@PeverellTom @fbunational @UnionSteveW @ukhomeoffice Removal of protesters is not an emergency.

@fbunational @UnionSteveW I thought the fire brigade should attend all emergencies without fear or favour. Clearly not. This is quite disturbing. @ukhomeoffice

Firefighters reportedly attended an automatic fire alarm at the Radcliffe Camera library in Oxford this morning. During previous demonstrations, police have asked firefighters to help remove protesters. Firefighting is a humanitarian role. The FBU advises members not to assist with law enforcement activities.

@hellohistoria I'm sorry for your loss. That's no age at all. Flu is horrible. I don't want it even if it's only a 'mild' case.

I know that people think this is a joke. My father died as a result of complications of the flu. He was 47. Wouldn't wish it on anyone.

@DavidSelling @miriam_cates @spectator Prehistoric people possibly knew, so it's probably knowledge that had to be rediscovered multiple times until genetics proved it. The consolidation of wealth and power was a strong incentive for nobility to forget - and that's why it's still legal. cam.ac.uk/research/news/…

@ThatRyn @miriam_cates @spectator Is royalty hundreds of years ago before we understood genetics the same as 50% of the population in 2024, generation upon generation upon generation?

“Banning incest is not only about preventing birth defects; it’s to stop sexual abuse…if it’s acceptable for men to see their children, stepchildren & siblings as sexual partners then how & where can women & children be safe?” A🧵1/ Me ✍️ for @spectator spectator.co.uk/article/taboos…

@DavidSelling @miriam_cates @spectator You're also talking about the Royal Family, right? Pretty normal for royalty to inbreed. Even Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth were related. Personally I'd support banning both cousin marriage and the Royal Family, but I suspect the latter would be more the controversial.

@miriam_cates @spectator 2024 Britain and we thought we'd have flying cars by now, but instead we are debating whether or not it's just too controversial and culturally insensitive to make fucking your cousin illegal because we've mass imported a new population who have an incest norm. Brilliant.

@hellohistoria Some banks can provide a one-off code you can use at cashpoints, if you need actual cash.

Does anyone know how I'd be able to access money while waiting for a new card? My old one has been blocked, and I'm in a bit of a pickle. Seem to be able to use money I have on PayPal?

@hellohistoria Plus on all the bottles of condiments in his fridge. Every time he opens the door the ketchup will be watching him.

Do I buy googly eyes to put on the photographs in my brothers house as a lil Christmas present?

@merissahansen17 She did move. She was initially sitting down inside the carriage and in the video she's stood by the door. By the time filming starts, she's cooked, literally. There's footage of a man on fire from a 1985 UK stadium fire and he looks like he's walking calmly, no outward panic.

I’m a little confused by the video in which I watched of the woman who was set on fire not screaming in pain and just standing there. Does anyone else find it bizarre?

@CrossCountryUK The bus was "only 10 minutes away" for a good 40 minutes. The reason so many of us took our chances with this train is because we'd been waiting 2 hours and nobody could tell us when the bus would arrive or that there would be space for all of us on it.

@ThatRyn Didn't lie Ryn, the coaches are on site now but were stuck on the A38 to you. Sorry for the extremely frustrating journey today though. ^Peter

@CrossCountryUK left people stranded for 2 hours at Derby due to overcrowding, lied about sending replacement buses, and now we're stuck on a standing-room-only train due to a points failure. There's no point to this X, I've just got literally nothing better to do than whinge.
