Fifteen years of austerity have devastated this country - but now Rachel Reeves is planning more cuts, plunging 50,000 children into poverty in the process. An indefensible choice. My piece for @metro.co.uk on the #SpringStatement. Link below!

Let it begin.

Viva la Republic

Some valentines day content that I made for @entomemeology.bsky.social

Can a headline alone be eligible for a Pulitzer?

I'll never understand why tampons in men's toilets is even remotely controversial. A complete non issue

The idea that being romantically involved with women cures misogyny and that the lack of romantic relationships with women causes misogyny is itself incredibly sexist.

What’s your favorite bug genre? #entomemeology #entomology #entomologymemes #bugmemes

A lot of people whenever I bring up my opposition to AI call me a "luddite" To which I say, GOOD! BECAUSE THE LUDDITES WERE RIGHT! They're primary concern was loss of jobs for textile workers, poorer pay and working conditions and poorer quality products, all of which happened!

Asking people from as many different religions as possible to pray for me in my upcoming exam so the divine intervention stacks and I pass comfortably

Excuse me whilst I curl into a little ball and sob over this absolutely brutal biochem module. Pray for me

Few things on earth are as beautiful to me than a rotten log

Please don’t

Watching @carladenyer.bsky.social absolutely clear house on university challenge made me feel even more secure in my vote for the green party. What other party can say their leader dominated so blatantly in a TV quiz show?

That's me btw

Too soon?

I wonder what horizontal gene transfer feels like

Women say they want to be treated "like a princess" but then complain when I try to marry them off to foreign nobles for the sake of forming political and economic alliances

Why Joe Biden pardoned his son – podcast

MAGA claims to have made comedy legal again but not one of them can admit the fact that Hunter Biden’s pardon is extremely funny

Scientists dissect ‘world’s rarest whale’ for clues on little-known species

The left isn't doing enough to criticise Labour, alternative leftwing parties like the greens arnt doing enough to take advantage of their falling approval. Nigel Farage is, which is why he's going to make massive gains come the next election if we don't start changing tactics soon.

Flashback to that time I went on a drunk rant about how cool horizontal gene transfer is and how it's spread the production of psilocybin across different species to some poor girl in the pub who asked me about my interests. Horizontal gene transfer is fucking cool though.

If you look at the Fox news reports and tweets from Elon about what government "waste," it's almost all just scientific research they don't understand enough to see the value in. The public would see the value in it if more scientists talked publicly about their research and the value in it.

When I say scientists have to be politically outspoken and active, I mean we have to take a page out of humanities book. During the recent race riots in the UK, I turned up to the counter protest, my mate pointed out several of her law lecturers in the crowd with us, yet I could see no biologists

My ID skills suck, not gonna lie, especially when it comes to LBMs, so I'll just call this "assorted mushrooms"
