My brilliant friend, @KaituhiHanna, wrote The Worlds Inside My Head for her beautiful boy, who has ADHD. I had the honour of copy editing it. I am biased but I think you should all buy a copy. amazon.es/dp/0645427101/ref=… #amwriting #kidlit #adhd #neurodivergent

Replying to @BancoSabadell
@BancoSabadell ¿De qué sirve tener un número de emergencia si no hay agentes responsables? Esta noche me han robado la cartera y he llamado tres veces. Su sitio web se bloquea cada vez que intento cancelar mi tarjeta. Absolutamente pésimo y voy a cambiar de banco el lunes después

Massively under-reported science story because there's so much going on right now but...it turns out that we might have figured out what's causing this very scary spike. Quick thread, on how WE'VE BEEN ACCIDENTALLY GEOENGINEERING FOR DECADES...but then we stopped:

First British tourists of the summer season are here. Middle aged couple with a caravan that had a UKIP sticker in the window. Assumed I spoke English, asked for directions, I replied in French. The woman tutted, rolled her eyes and said, "They don't even try to speak English"

As floods & fires rise, oceans boil & ice melts, and "safe" temperatures are breached, something momentous just happened in the heart of the EU. No one has heard about it: journalists were present, but their editors refused to publish 🤯. 🧵, please RT. #BeyondGrowth2023 1/

En 2022 apareció en Nueva Zelanda una biblia prohibida. Tiene 4 siglos, le costó la vida a su creador y en sus páginas pone "Cometerás adulterio" y "Contemplad a Dios en su Gloria y su Culo Gordo". En #LaBrasaTorrijos, la extraña historia de la Biblia Malévola. 🧵⤵️

Ok we all wanna bring back mammoths with cloning, but there are some weirdos I think we should also consider. PROCOPTODON: giant pug-faced kangaroo with forward-facing eyes. We think it walked instead of hopping. Early Australians met it & I want to feel what they felt

the older I get, the more I understand that "acquire a number of similar things so we can put them in a row and admire them" is some kind of fundamental universal human impulse that underlies a great deal of our behaviour
