@sundogplanets When I was wee small undergraduate I took an intro astronomy class that sparked a life-long interest (though not a career) in astronomy. My professor was Geoffrey Burbidge.

When I used to use Twitter a lot, I was good friends with Fat Boy Slim's producer (#NameDrop) and would love him having a go at the sound levels and mixes of music. I'm reminded of those times watching #Glastonbury right now and wondering what they've done to Axl Rose's microphone and just how much Simon would be moaning about it all right now.

#NameDrop in #iOS 17 actually works in Beta 2.

Okay, the #NameDrop feature of sharing your contact info is helpful, even if you could basically already do that. #WWDC

Never easier to share your phone number #WWDC #NameDrop #WWDC23

Huh. Apple invented #bump again with #Namedrop #WWDC

LOVE #NameDrop!

@timwilson @keelan Can't miss an opportunity to plug Thomas Breimaier's book "Tethered to the Cross: The Life and Preaching of Charles H. Spurgeon". Published 2020 by InterVarsity Press.

Tom attended our church in Edinburgh before he moved to take up a role at Spurgeon's College in London. Great guy.

Going through some of my best moments of 2022…I got the chance to share the stage with @PFTompkins and he was a super generous and hilarious improviser. His show with Marc Evan Jackson is one you don’t want to miss if it comes to your city. #namedrop #improv #comedy #pdx

Celebrity namedrop alert: TV's Helen Skelton, all-round nice person and general over-achiever despite not quite winning #Strictly tonight, borrowed a pen off me in 2014 and I've never seen it since. #HelenSkelton #StrictlyComeDancing #Celebrity #Namedrop (this is a rare celeb type toot from me, normal service will be resumed etc).

@Mek101
Yes, "We pay to XYZ" is dangerous language. Its a kin to "We gotta do something against this very supposed bad, crazy leader".

Words matter. Its why we couldn't boost this post and originally only liked it.

"Many pay to XYZ" would've been better, but we still don't like to #namedrop #dotCons in what we put out.

We prefer terms like #CAGEFAM. That is #GAFAM + CloudFlrae + that phony who cause a stir trying to buy #Turdsite recently.
