I really liked MeeT when I went a few years ago, they're a vegan/vegetarian restaurant.

Congratulations to Professor Francis Halzen and everyone working at the IceCube Neutrino Observatory for this recognition! #NobelPrize

They don't automatically ban them, but I hope with enough violations it will happen. I will block them once I've reported all the posts. I have screenshots, so I want to make sure I get them all first.

Happy Bi Visibility Day! This is a periodic reminder that there's a rainbow flag in my bio for a reason. I like the wine, not the label ☺️ Sending love to all who are queer in STEM, today and everyday 💛🏳️‍🌈

Just a heads up that if you brought an iced latte to a job interview with me, the only thing I would think was: "where did they get an iced latte near here and would they recommend it?"

Thanks, Pippa. It's extra frustrating because not only did they decide to make it (which is already creepy), but they're posting them in my comments section too.

Thanks again, it worked!! 💛 I was doubting myself, asking "is it really bad enough for that option?", but they agreed with the violation and removed the image ☺️

It was a pleasure to chat with @standupmaths.bsky.social in his recent YouTube video about whether Kinetic Energy is actually ½/mv² to talk about how we calculate the kinetic energy of the highly relativist beams at @cern.bsky.social Full video: youtu.be/k3sIHbj-TUI

Eleonora & I are both using our platforms to share our research & lives as scientists to educate & inspire the next generation of physicists/mathematicians. It's not always been easy, but we both know that it's important work & it's been so rewarding to see the impact we've been able to have.

It was wonderful to talk with Ella Al-Shamahi and Eleonora Svanberg about science communication on social media for the BBC World Service.

Screenshot of the website for The Conversation podcast on the BBC World Service page. It includes photos of Eleonora and myself, and a text description about the episode. The text reads: Women bringing science to social media. Ella Al-Shamahi talks to Eleonora Svanberg from Sweden and the Dr Clara Nellist at CERN who are both using social media platforms to encourage greater equality in STEM subjects.

How embarrassing for him that he has to turn to "social justice activism" to distract from the fact that he isn't as good at his job as the people who earned their position based on merit 😄

For reference, I got tagged in the comments of a CERN conspiracy video and then was looking at other comments and found some discussing whether I'm there to distract people from 'the truth' 🫠
