Got round to showing the kids ‘Robin Hood Prince of Thieves’ today and was pleasantly surprised to rediscover that the entire title sequence is simply a lengthy look at the Bayeux Tapestry.

KLAXON 🚨: Indie SAGE has come out of retirement to release a new short report standing up for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in the sciences!

DEI is not just the right thing to do, it *improves* the quality of the science. Please read and share.

In an age of open hostility, Terry Pratchett’s decency is more urgent than ever
Ten years after his death, Terry Pratchett’s funny, clever (and bestselling) books remind us that it's not enough to be good in our hearts, writes Marc Burrows. We must refuse to accept a world defined by pettiness and indifference

On this day, 10 years ago, the roundworld lost a great author, a husband, a father, a friend.

Good Morning! Are you just finding out about the Amazon boycott today? Welcome! Didn't have a chance to prepare? OK. Pick 1 thing you normally buy that you can shift. One real easy one...switching from Audible to @libro.fm for your audio books.
Some thoughts for folks looking to participate in the March 7-14 boycott of Amazon.

1. Start researching alternatives now. There are, of course, many things that are impossible to find elsewhere, but probably fewer things than you think! (E.g. many libraries let you take out tools!)...

🚨I promised I'd say more on the Royal Society and Elon Musk, so here it is. 🚨

I've resigned my position as Associate Editor at Royal Society's journal Open Science in protest at their lack of action over Elon Musk.

My op-ed in @theguardian.com
www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Elon Musk is a proven danger to good science, but the Royal Society won’t say so. That’s why I resigned | Kit Yates
It is vital to act, and I urge colleagues to do so. How can we stand by and laud this man while he undermines scientific integrity? asks academic and author Kit Yates

The most striking result from yesterday’s German election #btw2025 🇩🇪:

🔹 35 years after reunification: The GDR is redrawn on this map.
🔹 The AfD won 45 out of 48 electoral districts in the East.
🔹 In some parts of Saxony, they came close to 50%!

Why is this happening? Here’s my take 👇

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

I don't think people appreciate how batshit it is that there's a song we listen to every year, as a classic, that includes the line "The stranger spoke/he said do not fear/I come from a planet a long way from here". Barmey. Brilliant. #DailyChristmasSong www.youtube.com/watch?v=KODs...
