1/ A week ago I had a heart attack. Certainly wasn't on my 2025 bingo card but it seems years of healthy living means jack shit when you've got a hitherto unknown genetic predisposition to high cholesterol.

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

Why can’t economists, who probably are immune to price pressures, worry about price pressures from industries other than the so-called caring professions. So many other things to go after.

Before I went away, I had a strange, persistent tingling in the soles of my feet. When I looked it up, there were some benign explanations, and some alarming ones. I resolved to see the doctor when I returned. 🧵

A major reason older women face homelessness is they put caring for children, ageing parents etc ahead of their own need to earn an income. Caring was what they had been told to do since childhood. What no one mentioned was the terrible price many would have 2pay www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

NBN’s $3bn fibre revamp is great news but don’t Australians now care more about price than higher speeds?
The demise of NBN’s fibre-to-the-node technology is welcome but making the internet more affordable would have a much bigger impact
