The lack of logic in that statement and what is actually being implied baffles me. Bc if having 'a good man' is what makes people gay or straight, then the men making that statement would also no longer want women if they could just know 'a good man'. It is a daft thing to say on many levels.

Grand thank you!

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Fantastic to hear about! I have a doctoral student looking at the same topic if you're looking for connections? Congratulations @katieflanagan.bsky.social your work is sorely needed!

I was 6 & a fast reader. We were all told to read a book & i finished mine. I told the teacher.she told me off for lying bc she didn't believe anyone could read that fast. I said sorry. Knowing I'm on the spectrum now, I still want to comfort confused 6yr me.

Fantastic to see EBCD being used to support in this way! Looking to reading the paper!

It was fabulous to be a co-applicant on The Victoria & Stuart Project and even more so to see our overview paper published!

I heard you like critical thinking. Come hang out February 20th and learn how to encourage it in any organization that's not actively opposed.

Evidence-based decision-making is possible!

Your end of life patient now has terminal delirium. I hope it’s not because you applied a scopolamine patch, but even if you did, not to worry, there’s a very easy approach.

Given all these critical webpages are being taken down, this might be a good time to familiarize yourself with the Wayback Machine on Internet Archive. It can pull up pages that are no longer active:

Great news paper, well worth a read, likely a very useful citation when justifying qualitative methods in grants as well as papers.

I couldn't wait & read your paper now. A fantastic contribution, thank you so much for your time & effort. I will share this with my network.I know many of our doctoral students will find this hugely beneficial when planning their studies. Many new thoughts happening in my brain!

Oh how fascinating! Thank you for sharing, im looking forward to reading!

If you’re a federal govt employee targeted for leave or termination on the basis of your DEI work, please file an EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) complaint & retain legal counsel.

I’m a former NIH PI. Happy to refer you to a law firm that has successfully sued the govt many times!

Pls repost 🙏❤️

Yes, I'd love a one off and allow 6 instead of 5 contestants so they have all 6 of the remaining cast who all did horrible histories and yonderland!

Thank God for the animals and all of their snuggles!

I read this and laughed and then thought about the world at large right now & and how, as a kid, I never expected that to be the most unbelievable part of Peter Pan!

Well played, you translucent bear!

I usually avoid healthcare telly (except green wing when it was on) because I get so annoyed by it but you've sold me on checking out Pitt! Looking forward to watching :)

Oh that's so interesting
I have a death doula speak to our nursing students when i teach our dying & death course - she is incredible (very similar impact to the chaplain interestingly - their approach is so powerful). Could you point me to where I could read more of your work on this please?

No don’t want the ‘Pro’ version of the computer, I want the ‘Amateur’, which doesn’t hide commands in obscure places, doesn’t want to keep updating everything all the time, and is on good speaking terms with the printer.

Recognition in the form of a Gisèle Pelicot Medal for the betterment of Womankind, with an attached monetary stipend similar to a Nobel Prize to be awarded yearly to a deserving woman is the least that could be done.
Some years there will be a need for multiple medals unfortunately.

• 'Anyway, don't let me keep you?' • 'I'll let you get on?' • 'Right. < slap their own thigh> • 'Gosh, is that the time?' • 'Goodness me, it's getting a bit dark now, isn't it?' • 'What time's your train?' • 'Well it's been lovely to see you?' • 'What are you doing for the rest of the day?' • 'Did you want another cup of tea?' ‹ please say no!> • 'I should imagine you want to beat the traffic.' • 'I don't like the thought of you driving in the dark? • 'What are you having for dinner?' • 'I can't remember, did you bring a coat?' • 'Do you want a hand putting things in the car?'

A problem with being dyslexic and of the spectrum, which also though makes life funnier, is not always seeing what others do. First time I saw someone write 'OOO' in an email for 'out of office' I thought they were pretending to be a ghost for kicks and giggles. 👻

As the saying goes, the Lord works in cheeky ways, His chuckles to perform.

Was low-key an intentional pun? Because I laughed but I can be a slow twit.

I would for us to do this as a proper thing. Lots do between classes but you don't necessarily get the understanding of the full program, overlap, opportunities etc.

People who've never been dependent on a paycheck should not get to decide how long you can go without yours.

Goldman Sachs asks in biotech research report: 'Is curing patients a sustainable business model?' Goldman Sachs warns sales from the most successful disease treatments are difficult to maintain.

I can hardly think of a better example of the moral decay in modern health care than a Goldman analyst noting that biotech cures for diseases like hepatitis are cool and all, until their success diminishes the business opportunity for pharmaceutical manufacturers.

New word I'd like to coin:
