#aurora Alert for the #uk!

If it's clear for you now it might be an idea to have a look and see what's visible.

A camera/phone with lower light or Night exposure settings will help with recording any aurora 🙂👍

2024 was the year I finally got around to reading the first two Three body problem books.

**Little spoiler alert**

Really enjoyed them and it's made me think a lot more about science in the context of society and particularly existential threats.
I've read quite a few nice books this year. What books have you read? What did you take away from them?

Look at this cute letter: ஐ (ai). I'm glad it survived, it's a joy to write🥰
Hitting a funny snare in learning Tamil writing from my family; turns out there have been attempts at letter reform and some letters have changed since said family went to school. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplif...

Learning to speak Tamil, while being able to understand about 60% of spoken Tamil is so strange. And learning from first gen immigrant family is fun and frustrating. I find myself having to clarify and re-clarify meanings because well...Tamil is quite a different language to English and Latin langs
