We are now further away from the theatrical release of Raiders of the Lost Ark (June 12, 1981) than it was from the year it takes place in (1936). We have reached the Indiana Jones event horizon.

I’ve learned that book covers are very important. I’ve been congratulated on this cover illustration more than anything I’ve ever done (even by friends and family) sadly it’s not by me…this lovely illustration was made by Angela Annesley, I did the interior illustrations 🥳🙁

It's the 38th anniversary of #StarTrek The Voyage Home and I am struck once again what a swerve that film was. To go from the sf-procedural TMP to the character-action II and III and then take a punt on a family-friendly SF screwball comedy... I take my hat off to them.

Candlesnuff fungus, rising up like a ghostly apparition from the rainforest floor and waving its limbs.

A saprotrophic species, it helps break down deadwood. It's also bioluminescent, emitting a faint green light by night.

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

Huge news from the UK today: after UN climate talks in which there was a massive fight over language on fossil fuels, the UK government today announced that it will in fact be keeping many millions of barrels of oil & gas in the ground. Deeds rather than just words for a change! 🧵

I know it is just the law and all that , but it still jars to see ‘Graham Linehan cleared of harassment’ when I think of just how much he has harassed (and spread lies about) friends of mine and never been shy of bothering me either .
