This is just so awful.
So many important organisations that have been on their own journey to inclusivity, that have had their own discussions, that support women in so many important ways being bullied into changing policy by people obsessed with bigotry.
And this damage will last for years

Debris disk gallery shows tell-tale signs of asteroids and comets in distant solar systems
Observations with the instrument SPHERE at ESO's Very Large Telescope have produced an unprecedented gallery of "debris disks" in exoplanetary systems.

Observations of super-Jupiters indicate their atmospheric dust storms form through large-scale equatorial waves, differing fundamentally from Jupiter’s banded storm patterns due to hotter, more radiative atmospheres. doi.org/hbc7np
Do super-Jupiters look like Jupiter? Not necessarily, study shows
Using images from the James Webb Space Telescope (Webb), an international research team including Western's Stanimir Metchev has discovered new answers to explain how some brown dwarfs form giant dust storms, contradicting previous assumptions.

Brain stopped working at about 4p.mm. H just burnt hand on making tea twice and didn’t even make it properly.
I’m not allowed to eat or drink anything until like 6:30pm. Not sure how I’ll survive without my caffeine drip.
