Back in London for a few days, it’s so weird seeing people wear suits to work… that’s an outfit you wear to dinner, not to work!
As a Pokemon fan and an astrophysicist it’s very important that I get my hands on the Pokemon space stash before scalpers find out about it @esa @ESADiversity
View from near the footbridge of Botley Road Bridge, it’s actually embarrassing! It’s not finished, and the sides are uneven heights. They still have wooden barriers.
Everyone involved in the Botley Road Bridge construction needs to be fired and investigated for fraud.
I can barely get signal and make phone calls in Oxford but somehow the scam calls keep coming through, sort it out @EE, I pay too much money for a device that can barely be used unless someone is trying to scam me

Zack Polanski is not beating the “actor doing a bit” allegations coz what do you mean his character is now larping in different languages
What are we gonna do with all those data centres when AI becomes so efficient we can run them locally?
Labour had 14 years to come up with a plan and we’ve had them for 2 years and life has gotten so much worse since they came into power. The mind boggles!
