A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death. Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written." Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating. 🧪🧬🧫

I've moved to the sea to regain some health. The news reports huge numbers out of work and on benefits due to sickness and disability, I scream at the radio that if there were actually proper ME/CFS services I would have recovered more by now and not still be enduring this shit while claiming PIP 🤬🤬

Bradford is nearly 1/3rd Muslim, Hindu or Sikh. Question Time picked an audience that was more than 90% White. That tells you everything.

One day .... one day ... I'll get back to Naoshima 🧡🧡🧡

Seems an appropriate time to post this series of billboards I spotted coming into Kensington. America IS beautiful, I miss my American family and friends so much, but there's no fucking way I'm visiting there while this facist regime is in power.

Brain microscopy with annotations for better understanding ☺️! What if we take a deep dive into the cerebral sulcus? The grey matter has the neurons' cell bodies🔵, and while microglia🟣are more evenly distributed, astrocytes🟡 shape changes in the white matter. #Neuroscience #Microscopy 🧠🔬

Good night, friends. Thinking of everyone in the Caribbean facing Hurricane Melissa - we hope you and your loved ones all stay safe. 💚 Massive thanks to our NOAA colleagues, literally flying into the eye of the storm, working without pay (‼️), because their expertise saves lives. #NOAA #FedStrong

Testing some new antibodies to identify oligodendrocytes 🟣, for me, the most difficult one to target in brain microscopy! Here I was able to identify its nuclei (oligo2 marker), not the whole cell body like neurons 🟡or microglia 🔵. Still, you can see oligos are everywhere! #Neuroscience #Microscopy

Cancel Spotify. Get everyone you know to cancel Spotify. Spotify needs to become the prime example of what happens when these platforms run ICE ads.

Y'all are amazing. Keep blocking!

*The uninvited guest* (sound on this time!) Third week of observing scary things under the microscope: watching #SARSCoV2🟣 positive cells arrive in the brain. Note it's still inside a blood vessel and being checked by astrocytes🟢and microglia🔵. What happens next? 😨 #FluorescenceFriday

Doom and gloom post, I realise but I almost daily use Pubmed in my job and this banner has been up for the last week. Combined with more news of the utter gutting of US science and health, I've had Roy Batty's famous Blade Runner speech in my head today: "All this will be lost, like tears in rain"

"Its because I'm Jewish" The great Miriam Margolyes sets the record straight

DakhaBrakha at the Roundhouse on Tuesday were brilliant as always but of course, there were tears throughout when graphics included videos of Ukrainian soldiers and heartbreaking longing for peace. Slava Ukraini 💛💙💛💙💛💙

We cant trust Trump or Netanyahu. But want Gaza for their own purposes. Jared Kushner is involved in the peace talks. He was the first public figure to describe Gaza as “ great real estate”. These are people with ZERO compassion

Michigan Avenue right now.

The fact they jumped straight to AI actors modeled after women when, if I’m not mistaken, male actors are a higher labor cost kind of says it all doesn’t it,

ME + fibromyalgia = desperately needing an Epsom salted bath to ease my hurting body but too fatigued to get in and out of it! So annoying 🤬🤬🤬😭

My name is Jonathan Nez. I am the former Navajo Nation President running for Congress to defeat extremist Eli Crane and flip Arizona's 2nd blue. This race will decide the House majority . Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help us make history in Arizona?

They were defeated then and we need to defeat them now..✊

Today is the 89th anniversary of the Battle of Cable Street. On 4 October 1936, ordinary east end Londoners stood up to Mosley and his British Union of Fascists, refusing to let them march through east London. Honour their legacy. Don't ignore fascists. Stop them. They shall not pass. No pasarán.

Real talk, every prof teaching a course with a title like "The Diversity of Human Sexuality" has rehearsed in their mind for a scenario like this but gotta be honest, the whole (huge??) class stepping up was a surprise to me and likely to the prof! Good work everyone.
