Perfectly showing how creepy the terf/gc movement is. Chef's kiss.

(Not funny in reality, those gender fascists like Sex Matters, FWS etc)

Interesting. I am playing with Aspergillus genomes and noticed the flavus/oryzae mixed populations as well. Very confusing for a newcomer!

Decided against buying a shiny trinket and have bought you (well, the cats 😉) the Whiskas 1+ dry food. Every little but helps.

I just saw someone use the abbreviation “AI;DR” and I’ll be laughing for a while.

Also, aren't foreigners like me not paying for those benefits via our National Insurance and other contributions? If we contribute we have a right on those benefits.

If I wouldn't have been in the open plan office, I wouldn't have exerted my self-control and would have LOL'ed.

When I started university, I was invited to a tutor lunch. It meant we had to bring our own sandwiches, and the tutor had his secretary bring coffee and tea.

Badenoch is so good at her job.

Can I add the pages which ask "can we annoy you" and offer only "not now" instead of "no"?
