Found a new trick to see *why trending* on bsky at least. Running bsky in Edge, click on the trending topic then ask copilot to summarise?
May save me quite a bit of scrolling of a morning!

A near universal annoyance of sci-fi. Helmet lights point in which would render the wearer blind to anything outside of the helmet! Always style over substance.

These rockhopper penguins have had it easy for too long, and dont get me started on so called King penguins. Who do they think they are strutting about like they were emperors?
About time we sorted them out.

Not much being said on what the Trump Tariff table (LHS) really shows? It is distributed widely, but what is the column on the left? Buried on the BBC website it suggests =round(100 x (trade surplus)/GDP)? Seems strange to get so little discussion. Deficit does not equal tariff or barrier obvs.

Who else buries the vodka, Gavascon and Imodium under the vegetables in the supermarket trolley, when you see an influx of your students filling the shop.

Finally meeting peep IRL I have known from zoom over about 5years. Also one fellow scientist I’ve not met in person for over 30 years…. And we still had anecdotes about mutual colleagues from back then.

Following the Daily Star’s characterisation of #Trump as Putin’s poodle, I see they have been forced to issue an apology…. To poodle-kind.

Not sure I ever expected the academic life would lead me to “sex and drugs”. Now I just need to work “rock and roll” into my analysis….

After decades of dogs in the family, Fred dumbfounded me by actually bringing in a toy back in from the garden when instructed (Mr Disco Boogie-Bear).
This is a reconstruction: He wasn’t going to do it twice!

Old bed versus luxury new bed. Can you guess which he prefers!?

Did it work? I’m not a great bash expert! I guess I’ll try it. I use @anthropic.com Claude mostly for coding assist. Here’s me having a row with it…
