My favourite part of this episode - it’s goodnight from me (get it?).thank you RTD for this piece of joy. #DoctorWho #RTD

#DoctorWho so that had all the feels, and I loved seeing Jodie again. I half expected Bill to be back 🥰. But is there too much nostalgia? Too much “good old days”? Where is the New Who- new adventures, monsters, friends, stories. It can’t stagnate just going round and round.

Episode 4 -American Gods is one of my favourite books, so I was familiar with some of the names that cropped up in this ep. Really enjoyed it, loved the cameo (gasp!). some great performances. The Barber in particular was fantastic. 9/10 would rewatch.This series is hitting some serious home runs.

Rapidly rolling out alternatives to the latest medicine shortage is now a routine part of my 'day job'. It surprises me how few shortages of essential drugs make the news, so thank you Guardian and Nuffield trust for highlighting it

Brexit a key factor in worst UK medicine shortages in four years, report says
Nuffield Trust says supply chains have shifted, with medicines for epilepsy and cystic fibrosis among those now scarce

If the travel and immigration restrictions prevented every other World Cup team from traveling to America, the US Men’s team would still find a way to lose.

We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.

HAIRCUTS.

This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.
GOP bill could ban hairdressers from giving gender-nonconforming haircuts to minors - LGBTQ Nation
The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.

I have been leading a study for @nihr Palliative and EoL care policy research unit looking at the role of skin colour in identifying clinical deterioration. Today we presented results of our review and expert consultations to Department of Health and NHS-E. Exciting to talk about next steps!

Mardi Gras is a celebration, but Pride began as a protest. Now, resistance + solidarity matter more than ever. Many want to demonise and erase us, but queer people have always existed and always will. To my rainbow family – celebrate, resist, take up space. Stay safe + have a joyous Mardi Gras🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
