Should a society prioritise:

Basic education: pay teachers more
Health: pay doctors more
Reduce poverty: pay the lowest earners more
Science: pay research more
Arts: pay academics more

That's totally fair. We don't do the fireside chat until they've come out on streaming media channels, so everyone has a fair chance to watch.

It's only just started back up, so some hesitation about recording it. At the moment, it's an hour of japes, armchair science and banter. Hopefully, the next one will be #ProjectHailMary.

Ah, the "unreality tax", sometimes you have to sit back and enjoy. I'll message you when it's coming next.

@davecl.bsky.social, we do a film chat on BSFA for films and book adaptations. There's some discussion on how real the science is... And my undergrad/pop science probably won't cut it. Let me know if you're interested.

We can always let me go first, and you then correct everything I say! 😂

Total religion-based bargain ❤️❤️🐰🐰

Sounds like something Margaret Thatcher would say.

Exactly the same is true at UK universities.

Results... Well done @tadethompson.bsky.social @emilyinkpen.bsky.social @nickwells451.bsky.social 💯👍🏼

I really enjoyed the GOH chat by @emmanewman.bsky.social 😊 There's a strange reassurance in hearing someone who is so clearly smart, talented and such a good speaker, say how badly they get the jitters beforehand. ❤️

Behold! My precious groat haul 😆

I'll be departing later than expected due to family... Hope you're having a good trip 🚀

Eastercon FTW!

Have a safe lunar orbit #Artemis ! ❤️🚀
