KLAXON LEFT HANDED DNA KLAXON The next LEGO Ideas set takes a contest-winning concept and transforms it into something much grander in scope in 21355 The Evolution of STEM.

Welcome to BTO Scotland's recently fledged Bluesky account! Please give us a follow for regular updates on BTO's work in Scotland. 😀 📷Dipper by Edmund Fellowes/BTO #BirdingScotland #addBirder

This is a beautiful tribute.

Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪

We humbly interrupt your scroll to bring you the news that Wisdom—the world's oldest known wild bird—is breeding again, age 74. Go on girl. 😍

The new kitten seems to be settling in ok

CAT ADVISORY: With temperatures remaining uncomfortably low and #StormBert on its way it's important that you find the warmest spot in the house and stay there. Tell your humans to keep the second warmest spot free in case you want a change of scenery.

oh shit! I need to change the message on my last commit! permalink: https://wizardzines.com/comics/oh-shit-change-message/ from our zine "Oh shit, git!": https://wizardzines.com/zines/oh-shit-git/

Excited to be presenting at #MASTSASM2024 tomorrow - I will be blethering about SeabORD, an individual-based model we use to predict sublethal effects of offshore wind farms on seabirds in General Science Session 2 (Auditorium A). Come chat to me if you want to know more! @mastscot.bsky.social

📊When teaching or giving a talk, do you like presenting plots step by step, revealing e.g. one group at a time? This is often useful for walking through complex results. I made a R package that makes it extremely easy to do this! ggreveal: Reveal a ggplot incrementally #rstats #dataviz #ggplot2

y'all probably know i ❤️labelled data. the dev version of {ggplot2} has a new feature that automatically applies variable labels when plotting 😍✨ thank you @teunbrand.bsky.social!!! 🙏 #rstats

#BOUasm24 Chris Pollock @tonyauk.bsky.social uses an Individual-Based Model of seabird foraging to explore how cumulative impacts from #OffshoreWind scale with increasing exposure #OWEC #PrePARED @ukceh.bsky.social

It's not harmless. It's not "just an innocent thing" to be fooled by AI. You NEED to be able to discern and differentiate reality. You NEED to know how the world works on a basic level. Because fooling you with baby animals and flowers is just the start of something much worse.

🗺️ A new updated version of my climate temperature animation for Europe. It is now based on ERA5-Land with another colour scheme and hillshade effect. Smoothed daily maximum temperature throughout the year in Europe (1981-2021) 📊 #rstats #dataviz #climate #copernicus

UKCEH and NERC are leading the new £38m Floods and Droughts Research Infrastructure, which will provide: 💧☀️ improved understanding of how, when, why, and where floods and droughts occur 🏠🚧 crucial evidence to protect lives, homes, and infrastructure See more: www.ceh.ac.uk/news-and-med...

People who can't differentiate between entomology and etymology bug me in ways I can't put into words.

Wow wow wow. This is obscenely ableist. I'm autistic; my public speaking style is noticeably different to a lot of people's for many reasons including pace and eye contact. But people like my talks and teaching. This would have utterly undermined my confidence and forced me to mask. Awful.

React to the negative by putting up something positive rather than elevating the negative voice by bothering to mention them at all - if they hate what you love, just highlight what you love

Have a listen to the @UK_CEH #CountingtheEarth podcast – an entertaining way to explore environmental science topics. The latest episode on the Secrets of the Saltmarsh: 450 is out now! Listen here to all episodes audioboom.com/channels/512...

“Awareness” is sooo yesterday, man. All the cool kids are leveling up, you should try it. #autismawareness #autismacceptance
