Please help ban LGBTQ conversion therapy!

Great news! Éire joins Finland & France as only EU countries to reach the threshold, now 4 more are needed. Closest are Belgium (57%), DK (34%), Germany (34%), NL (48%) & Slovenia (48%).

It's LGBTQ+ history month. Myself, & other LGBTQ+ folk in STEM, work to improve inclusivity. But why is this needed?

The recent dismantling of inclusion initiatives, & the rise of anti-LGBTQ+ governments, it's important to reflect on why we do this 🏳️‍🌈👇🧵

“How hate and homophobia made a genius of Jaguar’s rebrand.” In the words of founder of Sir William Lyons, Jaguar should be “a copy of nothing.” Interesting look at the relaunch of a classic British engineering brand from the other side of all the shouting.

Begonia propagation. Cutting off major veins prevents auxins from moving past that point, so roots develop, which then produce cytokinins that triggers shoot development. I wish all plants were this easy. #PlantScience #Phytohormones #LGBTinSTEM

We may not be as many, or as visible, but you all are awesome in your enquiring, science-y, and technical selves! ⚛️🏳️‍🌈

Here's a microchip I've worked on for a few years having recorded some vitals in the lab. Zoomed in a < 3x3 mm piece of glass in plastic.

This fiery take on a 🌈 rainbow is still one of my favourite photos of all time. The only thing missing is the heat from it. 😄
