I mentioned to a friend in the US that @FryRsquared's book is excellent and he should give it a try - not sending mine as Hannah kindly signed mine! This was his reply a couple of days later.

Butts! This tweet is just a thinly veiled excuse to write the word butts a lot. How did human butts evolve to look that way? Butts!.

As skeptics, it's easy for us to warn people about the harms of alternative medicine at an individual level, but what can we do when quackery is being pushed by authorities

I love our Discord server, it's a great place to discuss skepticism all year round. But the chatter and socialising that happens during QED week is even lovelier to see. Hoping to see even more attendees join again this year.

Seeing all these folk coming along last night was so great. A great mix of old and new attendees too, I can really see this building into a vibrant and strong community.
Thank you to everyone who came along last night to the first event for the relaunched Newcastle Skeptics. We had a wonderful evening, with a fun and informative talk from Nikolas Lloyd aka Lindybeige. The post-talk conversation could have gone on late into the night too.

We are restarting @SITP_NCL and the 1st event is TOMORROW!!! I can't explain how excited I am. So if you are around Newcastle tomorrow, PLEASE come along and fill out the audience. We need lots of people to come so we can continue to put on more of them every month.
Don't forget tomorrow is the FIRST event for Newcastle Skeptics since 2019! We are restarting the group with a fantastic speaker @Lindybeige, so don't miss out on this one!.

Really happy with this lineup, and looking forward to bringing this to QED!.
