Our annual charity walk takes place this Sunday! This year we are raising money for @MarfanTrust in honour of Neil (@MrNSandwich), a Merseyside Skeptics Society member who sadly passed away last year. Join us for a walk along the Liverpool waterfront. https://t.co/g8IENs4IFw

🚨I wrote about BA.5—the latest coronavirus variant to rise to dominance—and why it matters. This is an attempt to clearly lay out what we know about it, and to cut through the morass of misinformation that has already accumulated around it. 1/ https://t.co/j1sbQh2QaM

I made a quick little video doing a first-pass through the #JWST galaxy cluster image, with my reaction to the image and some words about the science and what we'll learn from it: https://t.co/BklULhZhrB (captions are hopefully being auto-generated by YouTube now)

If you missed Dr Cass Hall speaking for us on Thu, or even just want to watch again (and why not, it was fascinating!) the video is available to watch on YouTube now. Please remember to give the video a thumbs up and follow the channel - it really helps

Meanwhile. Here is a daft cryptic #OxPhotoQuiz 363 to celebrate the anniversary. Task is to locate the items and indicate you have found the cryptic theme by posting a new clue.

Today is the1st anniversary of #OxPhotoQuiz ! I tried to store all quizzes on Twitter moments, but at first I didn't realise that there was a limit on length, so early ones were deleted. Here I have reconstructed some in rather random order https://t.co/CTvDKCiz1Q

Join us tonight to hear @AdamRutherford discuss his new book. Adam argues that science and history can be powerful allies against racism, despite the rise in the use of both to do the opposite. Stick around after for a virtual drink in Lock-In's Razor! https://t.co/1Ndy9dCHE5

I love doing @SITP events IRL, cos I love pubs. This is an adequate alternative, tonight at 7, on #HowToArgueWithARacist. And can someone get me a pint at about 7:30. IPA or best, I don't mind really.

‘Black people have been calling out racism for generations. We said it calmly, we protested, we put it in our music, our art, our movies, our television, our stages. And they watched, danced, laughed and clapped. But they never heard.'

In a former life, when I thought you cd politely persuade people not to be racist Their response? "If you don't like it here, LEAVE". Which I'm yet to hear said to a white British person Racism is telling black people who have a critique of their own country, they should leave
