seldo Did you know that for 200 years we’ve known that spiders can fly but haven’t really understood how they did that and we finally worked it out and the answer is “they ride the earth’s magnetic fields at will”??? Nature is fucking awesome. theatlantic.com/science/archiv…
@invalidname Usually happens just after those “all staff” company briefings. Typically the will to live returns within a day or two.

@primevideouk Hey, your Monk season eight episode 13 (billed as Mr Monk and the Best Man) is actually episode 14 (Mr Monk and the Badge). Ep 14 is in there twice! Mr Monk would not approve 😀

AstroKatie Right now, in the center of the Sun, there’s a nuclear reaction converting hydrogen to helium, producing neutrinos, photons, & positrons. A neutrino from this reaction will pass through you just over eight minutes from now. The photons won’t arrive for at least 100,000 years.

1. You do not need to say you use Fior Di Latte, just saying mozzarella is fine.
2. You do not need to feed your menu through a dirty photocopier 20 times before scanning it to stick an image of it online.

@Dru_Marland Over here in a more urban setting, the local jackdaws are making such a fuss around the chimney of the school opposite that I think it’s possible that one of them just fell into it and the rest are all now pointing and laughing.

@mippy There’s a clear dividing line between people who have established an identity and personality—with a real name or not—and people who joined Twitter last week with the name TRUMPBREXITAN9293748 who do nothing but retweet and hate-reply. “Anonymous” is a scattergun epithet 🙁

As I approach 47, I wonder whether the reason old people’s minds are hard to change is because they just can’t be arsed to read youngsters’ political arguments, which these days consist entirely of third-generation JPEG copies of pictures of text in a small font.
