Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

Time spent building depth of flavour at the start of making a chilli is time well spent. You cannot make it up later in the cooking time.

I'm not saying someone should hack into his personal laptop and leak his search history and check his hard drives before he's had chance to delete everything. Of course not. That would be wildly illegal. In no way should someone be doing that kind of thing right now. Nope, no sireeeee bob.

At the end of last year I auditioned for a high-profile and therefore very secret Hollywood film. I REALLY wanted the role coz it was a super-fun weirdo lawyer and the lines were really funny. But I knew nothing about the film. Didn't get it. Just found out it's the Gal Gadot AI Bitcoin film heh.

Fortunately motorists are universally accepting and understanding when a cyclist tells them... "I'll only be a second." "There's nowhere else to ride!" "Just go around!" when they are actually using the road as they are legally entitled. After all, anything else would be shockingly hypocritical.

Kinetic energy increases with the square of the speed, so the difference between 20mph and 40mph is four-fold. Between 20mph and 80mph it's sixteen times as much energy. In the real world even "modest" speeding adds entire car lengths' worth of braking distance

One thing I wish people would realize is just how central JK Rowling is to the entire anti-trans ecosystem. Looking at a network node analysis of the top 200 anti-trans X accounts, she is the most central figure spanning both sides of the Atlantic from Republicans to Labour.
A network graph visualization on a dark background showing connections between various accounts. The central, highly connected node is labeled "J.K. Rowling," with lines radiating out to many other nodes color-coded by region (UK, US, etc.). A detail panel on the right displays stats for her account, including her role as "Author & commentator," an in-degree of 153, an out-degree of 84, and 14 million followers.A scatter plot graph on a dark background comparing accounts based on "followers (log)" on the x-axis and "in-degree" on the y-axis. The data points are color-coded by region. J.K. Rowling is highlighted as a major outlier in the top right corner, possessing the highest number of followers and the highest in-degree. Other labeled points lower on the graph include various politicians, individuals, and campaign organizations.

We wondered on @cosmicshambles.com podcast whether Professor Katya Rubin knew how her interview was going to be used , well, surprise surprise (remember this was the documentary that Channel 4 boasted was “science led”)
Expert reaction to the TV show 'The Great ADHD
Myth?'
*NEW COMMENT* Prof Katya Rubia, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, said:
"My own contribution to this programme has been largely misrepresented as my comments were cherry-picked, truncated and presented out of context to make them fit into the programme's narrative that ADHD does not exist and there is no brain basis to the social construct.
The claim that ADHD is not a disorder of the brain
"It is true that with current technology (which might well change in the future) we cannot diagnose ADHD children based on a braindiagnose ADHD children based on a brain scan and the diagnosis is based on behavioural questionnaires and observations that are subjective. However, this does not mean that there are no neurobiological correlates to ADHD. There are differences in genetic, neurochemical, even immunological features and there is consistent evidence from three decades of neuroimaging research including my own for differences in brain structure and function as well as connectivity between children with and without ADHD. It is true that they are small at a group level, and that some children have no brain differences based on normative modelling studies.
However, part of the reason the differences between ADHD and non-ADHD brains are small at group level is because there is a large heterogeneity, with some children showing large brain differences and other milder cases showing very small differences, so this will bring the average down. There is also substantial evidence for a delay in normal brain maturation in children with ADHD.
Crucially, we need to take into account that the youngest and most severe cases with ADHD have never been scanned and if someone behaves very differently from the norm their brain will also function differently.

In 2019, London enacted an Ultra Low Emission Zone, requiring vehicles that drove through it to meet strict emissions standards, or pay a fee It cleaned up the air, spurred clean vehicle adoption—& now has been linked to improved lung growth for London children www.fastcompany.com/91591879/lon...

London's Ultra Low Emission Zone cleaned up the city's air. Then children's lungs got bigger
A policy that curbed vehicle emissions in parts of London had apparent health benefits over five years that one researcher called 'jaw dropping.'
