Dramatic skies out to sea this morning!
Have just attended an amazing discussion on women's health with @drnighatarif.bsky.social and @talkswithdrsesay.bsky.social through work today as part of #IWD. Two amazingly intelligent, insightful, honest, and very funny ladies. ❤️

Theatre curtains and seats tend to be red because it’s the first colour we lose sight of when light fades, so they’re less distracting.

Having had a pair of kittens for a few months, I now fully appreciate where expressions like “scaredy cat” and “curiosity killed the cat” come from…

I have been having fun turning the Mario Brothers into a 1940s industrial film using Veo 2.

As your weird /cool aunt, I just want to encourage you to be yourself and have fun. Life is short, most people aren’t even paying attention to you, so be bright. Try and beat back your fear and make wonderful things, even if they make you embarrassed. Try unusual things. And be as kind as possible.

I often show my students this visualization of how atmospheric CO₂ travels around the globe. Our attitude toward burning fossil fuels would change significantly if we could actually see CO₂.

Something I do actually find quite exciting is the prospect of a whole generation of women coming into their absolute prime with no fucks to give, who are absolutely bored to tears by the patriarchy, and feel like they can do something about it in the last third of their career.

All the early trains to London cancelled this morning (not hugely surprised tbh) so I guess that’s the end of my trip to the big smoke.
