Can you help find my son’s much-loved bear?
It was in a black suitcase taken from the Edinburgh to Kings Cross train, departing at 15:30 today. Suitcase was gone when the train arrived in London. Also in the case, a colourful pillow, clothes and meds.

This is one of the biggest tragedies in our history. A preventable disaster if the government had put in the correct guidance and still five years on they are still telling us to wash our hands for an airborne virus. This virus is not mild. 1 in 10 have long covid and rising.

A pair of U.K. scholars discovered the mislabeled document in Harvard Law School's digital archives. The university bought it for just $27.50 in 1946. It turned out to be an authentic copy dating to 1300.
Harvard learned it has an authentic Magna Carta. In 1946, it paid less than $28 for it

Today, the world mourns the passing of Pope Francis.
He inspired millions, far beyond the Catholic Church, with his humility and love so pure for the less fortunate.
My thoughts are with all who feel this profound loss.

To my nonbinary, agender, genderqueer, and otherwise off the binary friends & siblings: You are loved, you are valued, you are important to our community, you've been here longer than the tyrants, and you will still be here when their bones are dust and the names of their false gods are forgotten.

Great to see people I studied with from @sthild.org over the last four years part-time.

Old wisdom about healthy lifestyles isn't enough to address the seriousness of this immunity-ravaging disease.

Our Minister of Health, Manto Tshabalala-Msimang, said the best approach to the disease was just building your immune system through a "healthy lifestyle" with natural foods like beetroot. Our President went along with it.
