A comprehensive study exploring coffee’s physiological effects finds that some of its benefits are down to polyphenols and their influence on gut bacteria

This all sounds too familiar, especially „phasing“ 😏…

Amazing how 747s are used for domestic flights between Shanghai & Beijing for 1200kms. 🤓

Super missed this format, 3 guests, live studio, real back-and-forth. Felt like I was somehow in the audience because the discussion pulled me in very differently (can it be my German is getting better? Prolly not… but loved every minute of it, thank you! #PolitikmitAnneWill

It was almost too colourful

🥹wow great progress! Looking forward to going back after almost 20 years.

Malheusement, conventional happy endings, as perceived by the general public, fail to reflect the intricacies of human nature… #weekendfilms

The coalition is governing with historically low trust while navigating an economic crisis, energy shocks, and a surging AfD. It’s not fighting each other, but each is fighting for its own survival. #PolitikmitAnneWill

I saw this and it does bring home to you what damaged we’ve done to nature and habitats #thegardenjungle

“向前未必是向上”，但是向上就是前进吗？可能也不是……hmmmm this is very philosophical 🧐

🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Wow bienvenue à Shanghaï Isabelle!

Speaking of Vivian Maier, currently on @ Fotografiska Shanghai 📷 ❤️

Awwww beautiful story ❤️

Happy 2-year podcast anniversary! From news-driven episodes to more reflective ones, live shows, a full MSC week, & a new subscription model! 24 months of genuine experimentation. I’m more curious than ever about what comes next. Maybe first finish this new ep here 😁 #PolitikmitAnneWill

Yay!

Business is real but the cuteness from our end users is more real ❤️ #slidemasterin

Absolutely breathtaking. ❤️

brava comme toujours ❤️

This is Molly. She was finally found a week after her human fell down a 180-foot waterfall while hiking together in New Zealand. Her human was badly injured and rescued by helicopter, but Molly was missing. A week later, Molly was found at the base of the waterfall and reunited with her human. 14/10

On Wednesday, the crew of NASA's Artemis II could blast off on a mission around the moon and back. No astronaut has ventured out to the moon since the 1970s. n.pr/47v1ECm

Useful vocab learnt ✅ 14 days straight, no days off, another 5 to go… 🫠 Lost track of what day it is. Am so blaming it on Frühjahrsmüdigkeit though. 💆🏻‍♀️

Took a book with me on this trip, I don’t usually write in my books, but this one was dated “23 Dec 2015”. Made me pause for a bit, where was I, what was I doing… and have I become the person my 2015 self had hoped for? 🤔

With the colleague closing our meeting wishing everyone „Happy Easter“ I felt briefly festive. Then an airline check-in notification popped up. Flying out tomorrow morning, yes, for work, natürlich.

A new archbishop of Canterbury has been installed in a historic ceremony. Sarah Mullally is the 106th person to hold the job, and the first woman. n.pr/3PZGlTn

江南好，風景舊曾諳。 日出江花紅勝火，春來江水綠如藍。 能不憶江南？ 【唐】白居易 Fair South I remember, Scenes to my heart forever dear. At sunrise riverside flowers redder than fire, In spring green river waters grow as blue as sapphire. How can I not remember the South with a sigh? BAI Juyi [772-846 AD]

Eigentum soll laut Grundgesetz der Allgemeinheit dienen. Doch Deutschlands Milliardäre profitieren von Steuerprivilegien und Erbschaften.

I promise to stop obsessing over my grey hair and focus more on my beautiful eyes. 🥹💛 #smalltouchingmoments

Got mine today! Was an easy & smooth process. Something small & cheerful for a rainy Tuesday. 💫

me: sorry Chef for calling you on a Sunday. him: it’s okay, am working. 😭🫠 i dunno what to say i dunno how to feel. well, at least I had a good lunch while the weather was good. 🌤️☀️

“even-faster-Fashion” 🤣🤣🤣

Our chairman is in China again today, yes, on a Sunday. For a high-level ministerial meeting. A true advocate for Merz’s “Germans need to work more” narrative. 🙂 #OnlyinChina

Lovely coincidence, earlier this week I was deep-diving on Cato’s Letters, the radical 1720s pamphlets that seeded modern free speech & Mill’s “On Liberty”. Then this episode on the quiet erosion of Meinungsfreiheit in Germany. The threads connecting across time never get old. #PolitikmitAnneWill

Pourquoi les femmes restent‑elles minoritaires dans la politique locale ? theconversation.com/pourquoi-les...

Rosamund Pike in China w/ war journalist Zhou Yijun. A masterclass in thoughtful dialogue. Deep, boundary-pushing yet gentle, making me rethink power, gender, parenting & empathy. Also the systemic biases at work, how women carry unseen emotional/ethical burdens while maintaining professionalism.

China's "Mother of Semiconductors" physicist Dr. Xie Xide is a founder of semiconductor physics & surface physics research in China. As a teen she battled bone TB & went on to earn her PhD in theoretical #physics at MIT in 1951. She was born #OTD in 1921. #WomenInSTEM #WomensHistoryMonth (1/2)

S/he has become my stress management strategy. The texture is weirdly comforting.

Yes, feeling very 007 today w/ all the number crunching 🤓

Happy bday, Anne! Today, please just breathe, be gentle with yourself, & soak up the kindness you always give others. You deserve every bit of it. Enjoy your special day! ✨ @annewill.bsky.social

French artist Rosa Bonheur widely considered the most famous female painter of the 19th century. Also a sculptor, she is best known for her realistic depictions of animals (animalière). She was born #OTD in 1822. #art #artsky #WomensHistoryMonth

Learning useful phrases everyday! Because I literally am feeling a bit depressed because it has been raining for the past 3 days. #deutschlernen

Sometimes I wonder how different it might feel to be a man…travelling for work, leaving family care behind, and simply calling it “career focus” 🤷🏻‍♀️

Why is “squirrel” so hard to pronounce in both French & German? Maybe squirrels are just big on Datenschutz 😏

Me: trying to take notes with my middle finger stuck out in a splint. Colleague: feels like you’re giving the world the finger full-time now. 🤣 dunno… maybe I am.

So… broccoli for dinner then? 🤔

Have a good one ❤️

So nice to walk into the work café & be gifted a tiny cuppa of flowers on a Friday. With Women’s Day around the corner, it feels extra sweet. We still have a long way to go on the gender pay gap, but growing up, seeing women fully present in work and public life never felt unusual to me. #GirlPower

In the middle of our monthly global call, our finance colleague messaged me about the new addition to her Meissen collection… lovely pieces. Funny how the commercial team usually steers clear of finance, yet we bonded over something so random and completely unrelated to our jobs. 🤣
