I'm here for science and comedy, possibly networking. Definitiely not politics, not without meditation.

Views myopic. I mean my own. Sorry, post-ironic typo

It's #PrideMonth2023 ! Don't forget to buy your #pride t-shirts, and #PrideFlag at your nearest retail outlet. Show your support by paying money to megacorporations. P.S. This isn't an anti-pride post, it's an anti-capitalist one. I actually like #PrideMonth . It's a riot...

I did 2 #poems: To Be Alone: abstractacademic.co.uk/poetry/to-be-a… The Mastery of Ego: abstractacademic.co.uk/poetry/the-mas… I don't feel this way about either of these things anymore. Such is the human condition xD #poetrycommunity #poetrylovers

I tell you what, on paper, I'm pretty smart. Can do physics, understand societal patterns, things like that. But university internal expenses forms? Those things are so complex, I cannot solve them, please help!

Dear Sir/Madam, We know everything in on Netflix and Prime now, but...do you have any money? We really need some money and we thought you might have some. Please give us some money. Pls. We'll wait outside your house, so just come down whenever with your money :( :( #tvlicense

I think we should view #ChatGPT as a null hypothesis generator. So long as we understand that it's not a truth generator, and consider epistemological ideas, then AI tools may allow us to move into a realm of deeper thought! #AcademicTwitter

Here's an extremely meta poem I wrote called "Poetic Freedom": What is freedom, then? I don’t know, what is freedom? One, two, three, four, five.

In response to being asked for feedback for a fricking BBQ, sometimes it's actually ok not to get feedback. Not to optimise business processes to maximise engagement. To not ask "What could we do better?". Sometimes things are just ok, and that is ok

Watching Sam talk at #ViCEPHEC23 . She says education is about the journey before the destination. I agree! And it's the first ideal of the knights radiant...

I like when scientists and mathematicians say "write down" as though its a mic drop moment: "Then you can write down...the energy of an EM field!" "Whoa, what?! As if!" "Can't believe they just wrote that down, what a hero 🤩" "Ikr, I usually just write down lists and stuff :/"
