Yesterday I fulfilled my dream of wearing the @OfficialUoM PhD puffy hat and bright robes. To make the day even better, I graduated in a skirt made out of my old research posters (a project I’ve been planning since 2017…) made by my amazing best friend #scicomm @WomenInChem_UoM

The best thing my students ever gave me. I thought they were just really diligent note-takers the whole semester, but it turns out they were compiling a book of all the craziest things I'd said, all *very much* out of context. It's 152 pages long.

A List of Things People Blamed on Women 🧵

Today, nobody showed up to my 8.15am class. 0 students of about 40. Sitting in the empty room, I email them, trying to disguise my hurt feelings. 2 mins later, I get a reply: "Professor, we think you might be in the wrong room." So anyway off I go to live in a hole forever.

Up and out for a regular Tuesday. Mood:

The head of the girls school trust saying tonight that it doesn’t matter how brilliant or successful a woman is, she is only as safe as her male partner allows her to be, is chilling. #EmmaPattinson

Rewatching #BulletTrain now it’s on Netflix and oh my god I love this film so much. It’s so good. And Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s moustache is just 😚👌

This is a thread of new / slang words, from different languages, that were coined for the modern world. I’ll start with this one… Egérmozi (Hungarian) = watching films or shows on a phone (literally ‘mouse cinema’)

Wazzock should be higher on that list
