Overwhelmed. Despairing. Exhausted. #Neurodivergent people are hurting. So much unescapable change, unfairness, and evil. We don't pretend to hold any monopoly or priority on our hurt, but maybe ask your family and friends if they're doing ok and if there's anything you can do to comfort them.

If you haven’t read it, now is a good time to read Martha Gellhorn’s A Stricken Field - her novel about the impact of appeasement on Czechoslovakia. It feels… pertinent.

#booksky #books Currently escaping from reality with one of my favourite sci-fi adventure novels, Pandora's Star by Peter F Hamilton. Wonderful space opera with lots of different plots all converging as external events overwhelm humanity. app.thestorygraph.com/books/1524ca...

What do NASA physicists, "Jurassic Park", and fractals have in common? The dragon curve, a mesmerizing geometric pattern that defies expectations. 🧵⬇️ (1/4)

Prices are rising, even on Valentine’s Day chocolate 💔    We need to be focused on lowering costs, creating jobs, and building a stronger economy, not making it harder for people to make ends meet and passing costs onto consumers.
