Another beautiful Shchedryk performance amidst ruins.

It was set in what used to be a DTEK thermal power plant — now destroyed by russia.

The contrast between russia’s destructive nature and the Ukrainian will to create beauty even in the darkest times is palpable.

My (now) severely brain-injured sister Polly once drew an image of herself wrestling with complex vocabulary.

It was pinned up over @jennykitzinger.bsky.social's desk for sisterly solidarity as she dealt with making a COP application for Polly.

Why are the mainstream media not covering the mass demonstrations and protests in HUNGARY AND SERBIA against their dictatorships? Please ask the question to your contacts. We need all of America to see that we don’t have to take it lying down - which to be clear is how Trump likes it.

Fascinating data. There are three things here that really matter to people, and they think matter to everyone:

Healthcare
Economy
Prices

There is ONE thing that they assume matters to everyone, because it dominates so much of the narrative, but it is NOT affecting them personally:

Immigration
Fantastic piece. This graph particularly caught my eye. What is going on here?

Not just me then.
An abbreviation (ABB) in a journal article (JA) or Grant Application (GA) is rarely worth the words it saves. Every ABB requires cognitive resources (CR) and at my age by the time I'm halfway through a JA or GA I no longer have the CR to remember what your ABB stood for.

Have I told you about the Share Table before?

When the humans grow too many vegetables they put what they don't need on this table.

Other humans can help themselves to them.

I like sitting on the Share Table but nobody has tried to help themselves to me!

Or of reflection.
Siri show me someone who has fundamentally missed the point of public participation and involvement....

It's the involvement bit, stupid. It's not an extractive exercise in getting data points from "ordinary people". It's about shifting power. You can't do that with AI.

Plenty studies showing that your postcode is a better predictor of your health outcomes than your genome.
The BBC & Telegraph are trailing Wes Streeting’s technophile health plans, including genomic mapping at birth.
Is this really gonna transform the NHS into a prevention service within 10 yrs, as Wes claims? For v rare genetic conditions, praps. But for the real burden of disease?

Thoughts, #medsky?

On Monday our instagram account was hacked and then deleted. We received a ransom note to recover it; obviously we couldn't and wouldn't pay, and therefore lost thousands of followers. Meta support was useless. But we're BACK with a new account: @littletollerbooks. Can you follow us there and share?

Cannot believe that @lscicb.bsky.social has cut funding in #Lancashire for #SingingForTheBrain #Alzheimers sessions 🙁. This service has been life changing for many including my relative. Families will now have to pay £250 a month to continue. Many won’t be able to 😢

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Here's a 🎶 twist on Coldplay's thumping #VivaLaVida we're calling "Puppets on a Kremlin String?"

It reflects on the grotesque media spectacle hosted by #Trump & #Vance yesterday at the White House. In solidarity with Zelensky & Ukraine.

The same argument should also be applied to unpaid family carers.
#Burnout in the healthcare industry:
When systems are adequately supportive, burnout rates reduce. If we make systems more resilient, it relieves the employee of the excessive responsibility for being “more resilient “
Resilience Training is a false flag operation and should cease
#MondayMotivation
Key implications from this systematic review include:

- Prioritise job modifications: adjusting workloads and tasks shows strong evidence of reducing burnout. Healthcare managers should explore these changes as a first step.
