Day 6: reversal
Time to switch things up. Play about with roles, have them change their minds, even make them heroes. Have fun at #riddlebirdweek with all the possibilities. Maybe Penguin is reverse parking the duckmobile or perhaps Riddler's puzzles are all backwards. Be topsy-turvy.

For the first time ever, astronomers have unveiled the shape of a supernova explosion just a day after detection, as the blast was breaking through the star’s surface.

Absolute Batman presents new ideas for #riddlebirdweek by reinventing all the origin stories. How might their lives be different if Bruce was a childhood friend and they weren't focused on fighting the Bat? Would a shared history have made a deeper bond or forged a relationship neither want to risk?

The Sun just erupted with the strongest solar flare of 2025, an X5.1-class blast that triggered radio blackouts over Africa and Europe and sent shockwaves through Earth’s atmosphere.

Why not try something new for #riddlebirdweek? It could be using a different version or trialing a skill you've not tried before. Have you always wanted to try your hand at drawing? Wondered if you could make a stop motion video? Had a writing idea you've been unsure about? This is your sign to try.

From Arkham Asylum to Shadow, these games gave unexpected depth to the characters. Edward turned from a hopeful youth to an obsessed man. Penguin's ambition carried him through gambling dens into the weapons trade. Age may not have smoothed their edges but maybe they fit together for #riddlebirdweek

Rosalind Franklin died at 37 of ovarian cancer attributed to radiation exposure from the methods she & her assistant used to photograph a cross-section of the DNA double helix.
Meanwhile, Watson won a Nobel off that work & survived to the ripe old age of 97 by simply: stealing those notes!

Hey folks, as news of Watson's demise spreads, please don't set aside his weighty legacy of misogyny and racism. He was truly among the worst of us. www.vox.com/2019/1/15/18...
DNA scientist James Watson has a remarkably long history of sexist, racist public comments
“People say it would be terrible if we made all girls pretty,” he said in 2003. “I think it would be great.”
