Today missed being Easter by 22 minutes.
Gregorian Calendar’s definition: First Sunday after the first Full Moon after the March Equinox. If the Full Moon had occurred 22 minutes earlier, landing yesterday (GMT), then today would have been that first Sunday.

Chatting with my sixth form students I am reliably informed that buying an air fryer is apparently not an early sign of an impending mid-life crisis.
But when pressed upon what was a sign, they just said “we’ll tell you when you do it” so now I’m second guessing everything I do.

It’s astonishing how much it has changed since the takeover and rebranding, and how much it has changed in the last couple of weeks.

Good news: Twitter is collapsing.
And this chart doesn't even show the last two weeks—which have seen the largest exodus in site history.
There are reports from Newsweek and others that Twitter may merge with Truth Social.
If that happens, the last collapse of Twitter may happen almost overnight.

Going to give this BlueSky thing a go, the other place has become very odd of late.
So, where are the physicists and educators?
