In 2022 I ran a class at Falmouth Uni on AI in which a student created 'Shrimpalaba, his shrimpiness, god of shrimp'. It soon spread as a joke, appearing on multiple courses. 3 weeks ago it appeared on @LastWeekTonight blamed for destroying the internet. What have I wrought?
This could have been "Super catalytic photoredox arene reducing agent" but no, you have to choose science over Mary Poppins. Missed opportunity @ChemistryWorld chemistryworld.com/news/super-red…
Moved to Scotland. How was I sleeping on how bloody beautiful this country is? Spectacular.
First step on my round-the-world odyssey: Golden, Colorado. 🎵Maybe Black Mesa? That was a joke, ha ha, fat chance. Anyway, this cake is great, it's so delicious and moist...🎵
I don't know who does the sound mixing for the UK but for three years you haven't been able to hear the vocals at Eurovision.
Never forget Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur, currently 16th and 17th in the Premier League, believe that they have an inherent, inalienable right to *always* play European football, and tried to enshrine it by creating a breakaway league.

Gutted to have lost a very good friend of mine today. Feels odd about to go on travels after losing someone close. Cancer is a bastard.
Sad to hear about the death of Sir Fraser Stoddart. Had the pleasure of meeting and interviewing him a couple of times, and we were planning to meet up at the Hong Kong Jockey Club at some point. Moving to Edinburgh at the moment, and I'll remember some of the tips he told me.
Well, that's it for me in Cornwall. New year, new country. Bring on Scotland! Bye to all.
We are thrilled to be able to announce this ground-breaking partnership & the forthcoming 6 books in the Your Expert Guide series. We are honoured to present these definitive titles with the endorsement and support of @RoySocChem, @RoyalSocBio & @PhysicsNews, Institute of Physics
With growing dread, Barry realised which part the Transformer's body he'd stuck his feet in.

Good morning, @FalmouthUni journalism students. Four locations worldwide. First person to identify where all four are wins. Go.
Nice day exploring my soon-to-be new home! From next semester I will be relocating to Scotland to join the team at Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh.
