#nowspinning the #vinyl reissue of Ballad of the broken seas by Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan.

The contrast between their sweet/gravel voices reminds me of Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazelwood. A bit like having snow outside but being warm indoors.

Posting this because these images are making the rounds again. Plus, someone told me it was the best thing I ever did, and I was flattered.
p.s. only possible since I've been directly involved with several papers that meet these exact criteria, so mea culpa

Our latest paper now available in HIV Medicine @bhiva.bsky.social examined mortality among people who inject drugs living with HIV in Scotland over a 20-year period and found increases over time, driven by a rise in drug-related deaths. OAT [again] was protective.

First post on here so thank you for finding me. I’m probably trying to locate you as well 🤓

Wish I had someone to guide me as happened when I first used twitter. That was at the 2014 #hivglasgow conference. I’m going to start by finding friends from the world of HIV. Suggestions appreciated 🙏🏼
