Challenge: post your last photo taken in DC to show what a hell-hole it is.

Just turned up to post this and say how much I appreciate that preventing people from listening to music without passing personal information to a third party <checks notes> will keep children safe from predation.

I’d DM you my thoughts, but…

Heh, apparently if you're in the UK you need to verify your age to DM your friends and colleagues (or anyone else)…

I feel 1,000,000% safer!

I have poster D-094 at #ISMBECCB2025 - if you’re interested in OGRI/ANI methods, I’m happy to chat (or not, if you prefer ;)) #pyani #genomerxiv #bioinformatics

And it all comes to an end (the monarchy especially) with night three, show two: King Baby Ralph. What a great weekend of comedy - I hope we get to see them back on these shores!

Night three, show one of @whmpodcast.bsky.social: Jupin demonstrates Dr Crusher’s welcome for her grandma’s lover in Sub Rosa - the “hornily atrocious sub-Brigadoon representation of Scotland” episode of Star Trek:TNG. I’m sure anaphasic alien life forms feel similarly traduced.

Looks like you can get Orange Cream in newsagents in Oxford, @cheapshow.bsky.social

Night two, show two - the room temperature was somehow lowered for #WeHateMovies trip to Hell with Hellraiser and Tiny Pin WHO DID NOT DIE (as he was already undead)
July 19, 2025 at 10:22 PM
Night two, show one - I hope the recordings work for this set of #WeHateMovies Oxford gigs as the Darth Vader episode was incredible!

Night one, show two as #WHM #WeHateMovies take us through Quantum of Solace/Sontum of Qualace in the appropriately hot as balls Old Fire Station youtu.be/h6CoNUE5Zho?...

Night one, show one of @whmpodcast.bsky.social - the 22min of that TMNT ep felt way longer than this hour of fun.

Age verification?

You want to hear my bones creak?

The world’s not all awful. Yesterday I spent some time with alpacas.

Post your comfort album.

(I may have hundreds - this one came to mind first)

The @asm.org are looking for an EiC for their new journal Animal Microbiology - link in the QR code.

Despite the picture I don't think it involves playing paintball on a farm.

Disappointed at the lack of Patterdale…
