Psst! Pumpkins are a treat for birds but can be harmful to hedgehogs. 🦔❌ Keep them high up out of reach and compost any leftovers to protect our garden wildlife.

I’ve just finished watching a uni debate about history and how/if the past determines the future, from the perspective of various disciplines, and it was so good I now feel like my brain is firing on all cylinders! 🧠 🔥 Think I’m going to get on with some studying whilst I’m feeling all enthusiastic

It feels like an insult to the notion of objective reality to invoke “experts” to weigh in on a numerical fact you can verify with a pocket calculator

To ‘ultra-crepidate’ (19th century) is to lecture others on subjects you know very little about.

Had a pleasant walk home from the shops listening to the end of Jane Eyre (excellently narrated by Thandiwe Newton) and absolutely cackled at this line: “As she grew up, a sound English education corrected in a great measure her French defects”! 😆

I heard some drums out the window a while ago and didn’t know what it was, but was pessimistically expecting it might be random racists. Headed into town to go to the library (and wondering if I might have to have a go at some fascists) only to find it’s a Pride event. A PRIDE event in my town! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️❤️

(3/3) Solidarity with all museum workers and with those who push back. It's essential that everyone who loves museums now comes together to push back. Appeasement would be a disastrous mistake. We need to defend freedom of speech and museums as something other than state propaganda machines.
