This is SO exciting: truly ground-breaking research showing that the organisation of movement control in the brain is more complex than we thought. As a neurological physio I know the development of this area of study will have a huge impact on my work/my patients.

🔴 'VOTER SUPPRESSION': Huge Numbers Set to Lose Vote as Only 2.5% Of 'Missing Millions' Apply for Voter ID
With weeks until the local elections, just 50,000 out of an estimated two million voters without photo ID have applied.
What a joy the weather has been this weekend - not typical Bank Holiday weather at all - so we’re here in #ReddishVale making the most of it. #DogWalk #DogsOfMastodon #Easter

@vicgrinberg fascinating. One thing I don’t understand is how a transient ‘flash’ exciting dust clouds thousands of light years from us is observable in the same time frame as the flash hitting earth’s atmosphere? Sorry to be dim.

My little Citroen Ami just got even cuter with the addition of orange wheels. Every time I park up folk come over to ask questions - today so far 5 different people… #CitroenAmi #smallcars #electricvehicles
