Please share! My lab has an open fully-funded PhD position at Vilnius University's Life Sciences Center in Lithuania. The PhD project will involve identifying missing orthomyxovirus segments from public sequence data. Applicants must hold an MSc by June & have bioinformatics experience. 1/2
But it was done for our own good to avoid speaking the name of The Other Number.
Shumai appears twice and pasty fails to make the cut at all. Scandalous.
Yes! I tried her with Tiffany Aching but so far she hasn't been taken by them, I think that will likely come when she's a little older. Perhaps it was a bit too subtle for the moment? Same happened with Ursula Le Guin.
And the grenade would make its own hole, I'd albatross every shot
It has disappeared. This point still stands from 2 years ago.

If you want to torment young children, play ice cream van music a few times vaguely near their house then drive away.
The Case of the Phantom Ice Cream Van
Why do we keep hearing it but never see it? We walked around trying to figure out what direction the music was coming from but then it disappeared for 2 hours. Heard it again 10 minutes ago very nearby, then nothing.
Met another family also hunting for it.

My kid has a Kobo and it's good. I love that we can temporarily download library books and load them onto it at no cost. We've done that with ~100 books so far. It doesn't connect directly to our local library's app but it's a simple process to do via laptop.
OH GOOD! Phew. And you got to go in the secret MRI scanner too!
This is so relatable. Also why do they even need Outlook?
It must be such a relief to be back! Sounds like you'll be gradually getting sorted with everything. Always takes time to settle back in
Hooray!
Happy your oven clock is finally correct day to all the others
There is no good definition of what a “word” is
Support local coffee shops - buy pastries!

Ahh the checkups just when you're finally nodding off, I remember it well...
I hope you can get home soon and escape that BEEP boop of the hospital machines 🤞🏻
i have been informed by @sprobeforebros.bsky.social that today marks the end of Gary retrograde
Careless = unwittingly proximate?
Screenshot of BBC news website with the headline "Wind-powered robot set to explore hostile terrains" and red text underneath listing "Beds, Herts & Bucks" as the location
I wouldn't have said the home counties were hostile terrains, but maybe I haven't been to the right bits?
Exciting! Are you getting a home charger installed? We have ended up charging ours via the outdoor 3 pronged plug for now, which works fine overnight
trolley problem diagram, with Sisyhpus pushing his boulder as the trolley car, and text that reads: Sisyphus is rolling a boluder towards the Grand Hilbert Hotel. The hotel has an infinite number of rooms, but they are all full, so they may not be able to accomodate him or his boulder. If you choose to divert him, his boulder will destroy the Ship of Theseus. But the ship has had all of its constituent parts replaced, so it may not actually be the same ship. Is Sisyphus happy?
a question for the ages, really.
Chotiner: You've made the claim that no one has ever fed you in your life.
My Cat: Maow.
Chotiner: Yet there's food in your dish right now.
My Cat: Maow.
Chotiner: Let's change the subject to the ripped-open bag of sandwich bread on the floor.
My Cat: Maow.
Chotiner: I have read different things.
I've seen enough. Clearly this experiment is working. It is time for a Michael C. Jordan.
Ironically that used to be my optimal car parking location 25 years ago - walkable to the city centre but no parking charges 😊
Macro photo of a brown stink bug in face view on a leaf, guarding a tightly-clustered bunch of eggs that are shaped and colored exactly like a full tray of dark beer with foam on top.
Finally, the bug is back with a round of the Guinness.
Official Team GB Paralympic photo, with the the crests and everything, and a professional headshot, but it's for "Pickle, A Very Good Girl", who is a black labrador, with a hi-viz harness and a red collar.
Some of you like dogs, in which case you may appreciate that guide dogs of Team GB for the Paralympics get official photos
