Happy Sign Language week from students & staff at Heriot-Watt University @heriotwattuni.bsky.social

I can only speak from my own experience, as someone that has supported friends with mental health issues & working with deaf people receiving support - help feels sincere when its direct & in BSL. There is so little available. Thought to Impgen’s family & friends www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Hello all, this seems like a nice place to be! For my first post I’m sharing my paper published today, 18th Nov, in @bupjournals.bsky.social journal FRS. Being honest, I am really chuffed to see this out there - the last paper from my PhD that has taken literally years to do…

Pleased to be at @lizaston.bsky.social (Prof of Criminology & Director of @the-sipr.bsky.social) talk as part of Napier University’s Professorial Lecture Series. An inspiring colleague who has led on high impact research & teaching - which we will learn more about tonight.

It's sad watching 'progressives' with large followings on X having meltdowns because they fear its collapse and, with it, their influence. It's not your duty to support the man who spent $118 million and used X to put a global warming denier in the White House. Only four more stages to go.

Bluesky’s active users have now surpassed the population of the Netherlands. If we can become the social media equivalent of our Dutch friends, I should be very happy indeed.

Over 40% of all passenger cars in Japan are K segment microcars (under 660cc). Around 40% of new cars in the U.K are massive SUVs. With regulation, you get what you invite.

Bluesky has received 135,000 sign-ups in the past 2hrs 45mins. Wild!
