Hey I’m willing to admit I don’t think Beck has produced anything of major quality to equal Odelay, but I’m not sure I would throw him out with the sink…

Ignore the blebbing - gaze at the fiery beauty.

I’m reposting this because it exemplifies what’s great about research. Novel findings dependent on modern technologies but supported by, and advancing while reinforcing, the body of research generated by past investigators.

I love it so much. Seeing these classical structures that people have seen and described and documented always gives me so much joy. Like what do you mean I'm seeing the same thing you saw decades ago and those things are still true!

Beautiful - & always a joy to find old-school text representations still reflect real biology.

I found these immune cells just finished mitosis but their midbody is still yet to be resolved. How cool? If you zoom in to the midbody, you can see its classical shape just like in the textbooks. I love these little details.

Oh FFS - someone explain scientific methodology to the worm eaten conspiracy nut & his demented tangerine mate, using some sort of picture book & the promise of ‘treats’.

Saw the image, thought ‘that has to be Super Res’, then saw the first post & felt vindicated.

Then remembered I’d already seen (& liked) your post about getting your Elyra.

Still … the Elyra is a beautiful machine, as evidenced by your beautiful SR image.

Reform-lite.

Just fuck off with this. How about start the conversation by highlighting how much immigrants contribute to the UK - not least by propping up the NHS and social care system!

Also - forced volunteering is not volunteering, it's unpaid labour.

Stop blaming migrants and tackle real problems, 100 charities tell UK Govt.

Govt follows Reform agenda, failed to develop effective counter narrative.

Migrants are vital part of economy, public services. Economic problems caused by inequality, austerity, privatisation, political corruption.

Cue me storming about the house shouting ‘Has anyone seen my stereo glasses? … Yes we have some! I put them somewhere safe! … No I don’t know where! If I knew where I wouldn’t be asking…’.

So a normal evening at home then.
