When I was a PhD student, I wrote to President Carter asking of his relationship with Thatcher. It was a long shot & never in a million years did I believe he’d respond. He will forever be my favourite historical source & a President that I can’t not admire. I’ve read everything he’s ever said #RIP

I remain irritated that @tescoofficial.bsky.social don’t let you use gift cards/vouchers for shopping online . This has been a source of irritation since the first lockdown and now nearly 5 years later it’s still

Medical historian here to remind people the start of a pandemic is based on science, while the “end” is based on politics.
Reader: we are still in a pandemic.

Folks stop referring to the pandemic in past tense I beg. Oftentimes, you mean “post-lockdown.” The pandemic is ongoing and we shouldn’t contribute to the detrimental erasure of it and its consequences.

Latest #Greysanatomy ep was bonkers. A paediatric surgeon and an intern go to a corner shop for ice. Why did it need both of them ? Why couldn’t someone
