Having tried to do prevention (and promotion) of health and overall wellbeing for the best part of 15 years, this from Rosie is good ⬇️ especially the last point.
Sadly yesterday was @rosiebeacon.bsky.social's last day at @re-state.bsky.social. She leaves a great legacy in our really influential health policy programme.
Glad she left us with this absolute banger of a blog about the dangerous policy memes in health prevention.

Nirvana releases its legendary "MTV Unplugged" concert album 31 years ago today — seven months after Cobain’s passing.
“In the moment, you weren’t aware you were taping what was Nirvana's last album," producer Alex Coletti said. "It was only in hindsight that it became what it became."

Some of the most inspiring people working in safety make it possible to do some of most incredible (and scary!) things with amazing excellence and skill.
Really intrigued by this framing of Safety in AI as scared of it.
It’s a bit like reframing risk as a thrill and opportunity.
