The UK taxpayer pays me actual money to play around with lasers. I also tweet about #neighbours and non league football #brtfc

Thank you to @KillTheCatCo for some fascinating science today. I learnt so much. But can I say, the twins who had to take down the lab were massively overworked.

Absolutely fuming that #onlyconnect perpetuated the Jack/Flag myth. The two terms are interchangeable.

@hughosmond You can tell me that December is going to colder than August, but you can't tell me whether it will rain tomorrow! I am a clever person who should definitely be taken seriously.

Matt goes to the heart of it. With current measurement technology and state-of-the-art computers it is still impossible to predict the weather more than a few days ahead. Yet these same people, with the same technology, think they can model long term climate change. They can't.

@hughosmond Go to the car park of a local university. Then go to the car park of a right wing think tank or an oil company, or any other source of climate change denial talking points. That alone should tell you who is in it for the money.

The vast majority of climate scientists and modellers would not have the same jobs, salaries or prestige if there was no "climate emergency". Now think about how likely it is that they will produce models or research that suggests there is no man-made warming

@DownCollyer Club will use the name in official press, club will get a few quid. Fans will call it Nyewood Lane. Fans are unaffected. Everyone wins.

a lot of stuff nowadays will feel out of reach if you expect to buy it all at once. but it's all about planning and shopping slowly 1. make a list of what you need in your wardrobe 2. calculate cost 3. create a budget 4. commit armed robbery 5. use money to buy 1-3 items/season

@dieworkwear Are you really posting $500 outfits and expect anyone to consider that affordable?

Ron Perlman calls out the studio exec who wants to drag the strikes out until people start losing their houses "We know who said that and where he fucking lives ... you wish that families starve while you’re making 27-fucking-million a year for creating nothing? Be careful motherfucker"

There comes a time in a person's life when they must realise they are too old for three things: 1) Play football for Scotland 2) Play Hamlet 3) Be a spokesperson for the IEA #PoliticsLive

@ThisScientician @ECB_cricket @savevcricket Remember that 6 a side when the neighbours were told where to go as there was music playing 😬😬😬😬 That was as low as we got. We're in a much better place now, as the neighbours come and watch with a cup of tea or a gin 😍

A short story - from this to getting @ECB_cricket Clubmark status this week 😍 A club with zero juniors, about 20 members and not highly thought of in the community to having 100+ junior players and a thriving women's & girls section @savevcricket 😍😍
