Not according to the Birmingham city centre which started the construction of the German Christmas Market on October 1st, and it'll finished within days 🙃

Bah humbug 😠 (until December)

Dressing *smart* to represent the UK at the 30th Executive Committee meeting of ISGAN - the International #SmartGrid Action Network - in Dublin last week 🇮🇪

19 of 27 member countries came together to discuss global collaboration on the fundamental R&D needed for our future electricity systems ⚡💡

MAOAM looks like a word that AI made on an image when it was asked to design a logo for a popular men's magazine

Does everyone *actually* hate the new Taylor Swift album? Or are people just being haters for the sake of the algorithm, to drive traffic towards their pick-me "content"?

In honour of October, share a 4 word horror story that only someone in your profession would understand:

Final product NMR dropped

The formerly #ChemTwitter, now #ChemSky, community!

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Renewables overtake coal as world's biggest source of electricity Developing countries lead the historic clean energy charge but the US and EU rely more on fossil fuels than before, a think tank study shows.

Maybe blame the corporations that contribute SIGNIFICANTLY more to climate change than any individual rather than blaming life-saving medications people need to BREATHE!

Fuck ALL THE WAY off with this bullshit.

Absolute perfection, no notes

*chef's kiss* 😘👌🏻

I was thinking of going as "millennial existential dread" but there are far too many things to amalgamate into 1 costume, it would be too heavy 🤣

Niiice! I went to China for work last year and going again later this month, it's a stunning place!
I'll also be chatting to Nature folks there this time around 🤓

It's a reasonable expectation, if a little naive. But to call the uni, on behalf of your GROWN ASS CHILD, after ONE (1) cancelled class is unhinged.

I mean, that's just MENTAL.
Some folks just have no grip on reality. A professor falling sick?! That could literally never happen.

You ever go out to a pub/club and get the impression the DJ is actively trying to make the patrons leave?
That's happened to me & my friends the last 2 Fridays in a row in the same place.

Probably never going back 🙃

Greggs bacon rolls are far superior while also being better value!

Went to see Lewis Capaldi in Birmingham the other night and the best video is this one of him messing up the lyrics 🤣

I was so busy making sure I'd actually misspelled the word in this case that I forgot the word "in" 🤣

I have a PhD chemsitry

DAMMIT

This just popped up in my FB memories from 9 years ago 🤣 #CraigNotCreg

It sometimes bugs me that "Greenhouse Gas" is given the acronym "GHG". It's not Green House Gas...

But then I remember that POSYTYF exists 🥴

Whaaaaat??

That's amazing, congratulations! 🥳

There will also be a roundtable discussion with some folks over at Nature, including @natenergy.nature.com and @natrevcleantech.nature.com

Should be super interesting! 🤓

Going to Dublin (4 days) and China (5 days + travel time) for work next month, with 1 week in between, and I'm tired just thinking about this 😭

I can never sleep on planes 😢

I hear this all the time when people try to "sell" cricket.

If your selling point of the sport is the drinking and a load of other stuff that *isn't* watching, then that is quite literally the opposite of a spectator sport.

I'll stick to *watching* football and rugby, thanks very much.

THISSSSSSSS

The main street in Birmingham is an auditory (and visual) hellhole! 😣
