A stunning view over Worthy Farm tonight as Pulp lit up the Pyramid Stage with Common People — a perfect Glastonbury moment from high above the festival fields... 🛩️🎪✨ 📹 @rafredarrows

Happy pride month! 🏳️‍🌈 Pride is about not just persisting, but taking life back from the fringes of society, thriving in spite of adversity. It isn't vanity; It's solidarity and defiance. Sometimes protest, sometimes celebration, however the political pendulum swings, we remain.

@__NERF Congratulations!

Many congratulations to Anna Chrzanowska from the @Farrow on successfully defending her PhD ‘Contributions of superior colliculus cell types to innate behaviors’ on August 30th. 🥳🙌

Once met a British oil exec in Lagos. The day before, he’d been to a disastrous party at a top minister’s house. The invitation said ‘Fancy dress compulsory’. He had no fancy dress, but was an enthusiastic scuba diver and by chance had his gear with him. He dressed up, took a cab to the house, rather surprising the driver, squelched up the drive in wet-suit, mask & fins, climbed the steps, and found himself in the midst of the party. All the men were wearing dinner jackets, since in Nigeria ‘fancy dress’ means ‘black tie’. He fled back down the drive and understandably had problems getting a cab to take him back to his hotel.

@Yadirabornaceli @klee1138 @historyinmemes We receive lots of signals through the can Allen belts. Sending really isn't a problem.

@klee1138 @historyinmemes It's very doubtful they can send a radio signal through the Van Allen belt

The family portrait left behind by Apollo 16 astronaut Charles Duke on the moon has become a significant artifact in space exploration history. The photograph, which Duke placed on the lunar surface during the mission, has remained untouched and undisturbed for over five decades. Apollo 16 was the tenth crewed mission in NASA's Apollo program and was launched on April 16, 1972, from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The mission aimed to explore the Descartes Highlands region of the moon, where the Lunar Module landed on April 20, 1972. The crew consisted of Commander John W. Young, Lunar Module Pilot Charles M. Duke Jr., and Command Module Pilot Thomas K. Mattingly II. As part of the personal items astronauts were allowed to carry, Duke chose to bring a family portrait to commemorate his journey to the moon. The photograph depicted his wife and children, symbolizing the connection between the astronauts and their loved ones back on Earth. Duke took the photo out of his spacesuit pocket and carefully placed it on the lunar surface near the Lunar Module. On the back of the photo, Duke wrote a heartfelt inscription that read, "This is the family of astronaut Charlie Duke from planet Earth who landed on the moon on April 20, 1972." This inscription served as a testament to the historic achievement of the Apollo 16 mission and a reminder of the human presence on the moon. Since the moon lacks an atmosphere, the photograph has remained unaffected by weather conditions, preserving it in pristine condition. Over the years, subsequent missions to the moon have respected the historic significance of the photo and have not disturbed its placement.

@LouisEverett1 When a colleague of mine retired a few years ago I was surprised to find out his father was born in 1860.

Having a debate about who’s the longest serving teacher nationally, how many years? Is there anyone on Twitter who’s done over 40 years as a teacher?

@MrsHahnG_KS2 @MrWalker_Tweets I teach in Bucharest at an American school. "Live from the Crucible" doesn't get a lot of recognition sadly 🙁

@farrow @MrWalker_Tweets Mine didn’t. It’s aldi made it’s way around the school. But it’s all about challenging thinking. So put it up!

My class hated me when they realised the answer 🤣🤣🤣

@MrWalker_Tweets @MrsHahnG_KS2 I don't think any of my students would get that one Shame as I like it!

@MrsHahnG_KS2 Another one is: 1-R 2-Y 3-G 4-B 5-B 7-?

Late in the year I know, but my current school, American International School of Bucharest is looking for an MYP Mathematics teacher. Contact me for more details if you know of anyone!

@RebeccaDoige @iborganization Congratulations!

After months of intense training, amazing collaboration & deep dive into IB - I am now officially IBEN WSL! Proud & excited to be a workshop leader. I look forward to giving back & collaborating with amazing educators. Grateful to @iborganization for the opportunity. #sisrocks

My school pays you £20 every time you cover a lesson. Or if you do up to 6 cover lessons you can get the day off paid.

@DJGteaching *sigh*

@farrow More opportunity for recall marks I guess?! 🤣

This good news needs to be a permanent change. Memorising equations is nonsense.

If you're a teacher, and you feel like you're all caught up on work, you forgot something and you're actually screwed.

At a cafe in Andreas-Hofer-Strasse two doors up from No. 13 listening to @merielschindler’s recount of her grandfather’s ordeal during Kristallnacht. Tracing their steps so touchingly narrated in #TheLostCafeSchindler

10 years ago Barak Rosenshine published one of the most useful reviews of research into effective teaching ever written. It's a slam-dunk hit in the UK, but barely talked about in the USA. If you're a USA educator that has never heard of it, here it is: aft.org/periodical/ame…

@christopherrufo @JeffersonLars “… harassment and threats of violence …” did you actually read the statement you linked to?

The Children's Hospital Association wants the F.B.I. to prosecute journalists who question the wisdom of radical gender surgeries for children—which, incidentally, are immensely profitable for those hospitals.

the machine refused to recognize my humanity until i professed to believe that a sign painted to look like a traffic light is indeed a traffic light.
