I just want to say for the record that when the history books are written centuries from now, I believe the election of Donald Trump in a free and fair election in 2024 will go down as one of the most senseless and self-destructive own goals in human history

New Alien Earth trailer was very intriguing too

The current slightly 'can't really bothered' SW branding is beginning to look tired and shabby

Its slightly baffling how the US can be so concerned with Harry's visa application when they voted Trump, a man found liable for sexual abuse, into the White House

The value of our psychology team is not really captured in the data that the hospital routinely uses. Our work is often more behind the scenes, quieter, unmeasured. I'm usually ok with that- it's realistic, but it can seem like we're not contributing to the metrics, & this makes us a bit vulnerable.

Poverty is as much a causes as a consequence of mental ill health.

We therefore need a trauma informed approach to poverty as much as a poverty informed approach to mental ill health.

It's nearly 5am and Republicans just rammed through their pro-billionaire, anti-middle class budget blueprint.

In order to pass massive tax giveaways for billionaires, they're going to defund Medicaid, slash veterans benefits, & force kids to go hungry.

Make sure everyone knows it.

How's that descent into white rule going America? This is utterly terrifying.

I guess like other providers they still rely on the Openreach infrastructure which can be the speed decider. I think they have a 'what speed can you give me' tester on their website

Trump presumably projecting in anger because hasn't yet been able to resolve his unrequited love for Putin, or figure out a way of dismantling democracy enough to allow him to continue in office for eternity as per the Vlad playbook. Well not yet anyway.
