@GerryMcBride In 1978 my mum dressed me in a black bin bag with a cardboard ship for a hat and sent me as the Amoco Cadiz oil spill

There’s nothing like Irish kids on Halloween. Around the world children dress up as witches or ghouls or superheroes. In Ireland you’ll have four cousins doing a group costume representing a tribunal that nearly toppled the government.

@FunkyPedagogy My daughter was offered a bacon butty by her auntie, who asked if she wanted anything on it (meaning red or brown sauce). Daughter asked for Brie & Cranberry

@ADyeMusicology @Dr_ElleScott But also academic writing is a trained skill - researchers have to learn how to use and interpret academic language before they can ‘become’ researchers. The gatekeeping aspect of this Ivory Tower tradition (perfect description @dr_ellescott) is the disposable layer imho

@Dr_ElleScott I think this speaks to a need for more people trained in communicating academic research to a broader audience, and those people don’t need to be the researchers themselves. The job of the researcher should be documenting their findings accurately first and foremost.

@Angel_Devil982 @danny_robins @uncannypodlive @_EvelynHollow @ciaranokeeffe Hey so I looked and immediately they reminded me of a negative image. Downloaded an app and got this. Which is just a kid. Weird.

Just listened to @danny_robins latest case update and it was brilliant. Having said that, I just checked out the images of the ghostly face photos on his site and had to quickly shut down the page. One of the creepiest damn things I’ve ever seen! 👀 #UncannyCommunity

@silverpebble If you like that song, may I recommend this one too? More explicit description of feeing out of place, plus it’s an absolute banger open.spotify.com/track/5p1fGrgv…

Been listening to this song a LOT lately despite its slight cheesiness. It makes me a bit tearful tbh. If you’re neurodivergent, feel at all wonky around others or your colleagues have an agenda that feels clangy as hell, then it’s definitely for you x: open.spotify.com/track/6H3Wa6hW…

#FaroeIslands Look at this photo, it's not cars, look closely, it's the bodies of #PilotWhales from the #Grindadraps 3 days ago, zoom in you can see how many tiny babies there are, go on see how many you can count? Is this ethical NO, do they need the meat NO! #StopTheGrind

@LabradorYuki I thought I’d only ever get one of your daily words right, and yet here I am again! 😁

Today’s #DutchWord is: nog. Good luck guessing. 😊

@LabradorYuki Thanks! Makes more sense!

@CKBDesigns Actually that “weer” means sth else like in “kogelwerend vest” or “afweren”. How to explain in English”? To stop, to keep out, to fend off…..

Today’s #DutchWord has 2 totally different meanings: weer. Good luck guessing! 😊

@LabradorYuki Maybe!! First word I’ve ever got from your daily words in nearly two years of learning Dutch 🫨

Today’s #DutchWord: misschien. Good luck guessing! 😊

Here's a little look at German cost of living vs British cost of living, which goes a long way to explain why British people are suffering- despite the UK being ome of the richest countries in the world /1

For those asking, we fully support @pret for giving its work force successive pay rises. We are just asking for the same treatment for doctors. #PayRestoration #JuniorDoctorsStrike

Be clear, this is not about the BBC. The same way privatisation of the NHS is not about the NHS. This is about a corrupt, greedy and amoral Tory govt infiltrating and destroying public services. BBC and the NHS were the envy of the free world, until Tory’s corrupted them.

@lizaadamczewski Despite appearances she is actually a dog and not a land-seal

@lizaadamczewski My Olive has had a small op this week and is feeling very sorry for herself

I miss my dog, I miss cuddling him so much. So if anyone out there has a very small dog that loves to be cuddled that they don’t want anymore I might have a dog shaped space in my life that needs filling. Feel free to send me photos of your dogs. Dogs are just the best!!

Arnold Schwarzenegger to antisemites and other hate groups: "There has never been a successful movement based on hate. Nazis? Losers. The Confederacy? Losers. The Apartheid movement? Losers. I don’t want you to be a loser. I don’t want you to be weak." variety.com/2023/film/news…

I think the best that can be said about the govt's bill is stopping small boats is a safety priority. However, isn't it interesting that the 'solution' - ditching human rights protections - is one the Tories have been pitching for more than a decade, before the problem started?
