Los BlackAdder son una estirpe tan desafortunada como resiliente.

Pasaron de herederos al trono en el siglo XV a meros mayordomos reales tres siglos después. Y por si fuera poco, a las órdenes de un príncipe regente con pocaas luces.

Empieza otro #MakeEmLaugh histórico.

Si llegas a este hilo por casualidad, de rebote o porque el algoritmo de TW no te permitió disfrutar de la "fantabulosa" primera parte que le dedicamos en su momento, tómate unos minutitos y recupéralo aquí.

Si de la primera a la segunda temporada de 'La Víbora negra' (o 'L'Escurçó Negre') pasaban unos70 años, de la segunda a la tercera damos un salto de más de 200 años.

Nos plantamos en la denominada Regencia Inglesa, provocada por la inestable salud mental del Rey Jorge III.

@etayyabi @SerendipityWrk Hello All, Glad to join you. I hope this doesn’t stray off topic too far – though it is topical – if not passé …. but thought we’d update on a new project that is developing ultrasensitive lateral flow devices for wide-spread, population-level screening. #SerendpityWrk
@SerendipityWrk @etayyabi We recently discovered a way to make free-standing gold nanomaterials.
At just two atoms thick – this represents the world thinnest unsupported gold.
It is truly a 2D material – every atom being on the surface.

@SerendipityWrk @etayyabi HRTEM shows the AuNS to be flexible, display rounded edges & highly ordered
UV-VIS shows extended absorbance into the near-IR with no strong absorbance around 520 nm (expected for colloidal gold nanoparticles)
The green gold became known as gold nanoseaweed (AuNS)

I have always wanted to explain to people how the #Falklands are run, so badly - #Blackadder fans will appreciate the importance of the comma!

Here's a thread about one aspect of that, inspired by this tweet:
The #FalklandIslands Constitution does not create a ministerial system, but a so called "portfolio" system has evolved.

There is no Prime/First/Chief Minister or Premier here, but MLAs take it in turns to be Chair of the Legislative Assembly ...
... except that when Legislative Assembly meets formally, it is not chaired by the Chair but by the Speaker, who is not an MLA but who is elected by the MLAs ...
