You can now watch #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge if you have Apple TV. Look out for the killer koalas! I've watched all the episodes and highly recommend it. My main complaint - the bits at the end featuring the researchers talking the science are way too short! www.newscientist.com/article/2505...

Loved @davidarobson.bsky.social's latest column for @newscientist.com. I only started feeling comfortable in a swimsuit when I began appreciating my body for what it could do rather than how it looked. I am a big fan of the body-neutrality movement! www.newscientist.com/article/mg26...
