For reference, I got tagged in the comments of a CERN conspiracy video and then was looking at other comments and found some discussing whether I'm there to distract people from 'the truth' 🫠

It's a weird feeling when you see a comments section of a video and there are people you've never met in there discussing you πŸ˜…

Today I found out that a bunch of Gen Z folks I know don't eject USB sticks before removing them from a computer. Is this a universal thing? I'm genuinely curious.

Those were beautiful #aurorae in the past days. A solar storm brought a lot of protons to Earth. Not only to Earth but also to #ESAEuclid – but does #Euclid notice? Oh yes.

It's the person I'm more interested in, if they have a short clip of themselves in a rainforest they'd be willing for me to use πŸ™‚

Studying spiders would be great! It's just a short clip, but much nicer to reference a real person at that point

Out of curiosity, do I know someone (who knows someone) who counts spiders in rainforests? I want to use a short clip of them working for a video and I'd love to use a real scientist. #spiders

A massive thank you to the folks from the STFC & Boulby Underground Laboratory for showing me around for #DarkMatterDay!

We went 1km underground & I spoke with people who do this every day to better understand how our universe works. It was such a unique experience & I can't wait to show you more!!
