So looking forward to having @carolynharris24 as a guest in our @CityGuildsGroup M-Power Menopause Community Support group this afternoon. Hoping to hear more about the new Menopause Support Taskforce, @AppgMenopause & lots of other things. Thanks so much. #MenopauseRevolution
Thousands of emails have been sent to Conservative MPs urging them to oppose the Health Bill. Their replies are maddening! So we made a video blowing apart their most common claims with NHS expert @drbobgill! RT & go2👉yournhsneedsyou.com to help!
There's a lot of concern about waning immunity right now. This thoroughly researched, beautifully written, and surprisingly reassuring piece by my colleague @KatherineJWu lays out what we know and what we don't. theatlantic.com/science/archiv…
Excellent piece by @brycecovert. Take note of the graph within. nytimes.com/2021/08/06/opi…
Fair play to @Schwarzenegger … he does articulate this very well. A healthy society is built upon many communities of expertise, where we all should have some basic levels of trust in each other to do the jobs we do.
This was an excellent thing to be involved in, despite finding out quite quickly that memorising words isn’t the same as memorising tunes 😅 Thanks to Fionn at @startpointmedia for the adventures, and all the great folk we met during the filming.

12. So I am going to appeal directly (again(, and with the most heartfelt sincerity, to @NHSEngland @MattHancock @DHSCgovuk: 13. Let the cameras in. Counter the misinformation with facts. Fact matter. Show the public. Please.
THREAD/ On misinformation and media management 1. Like every NHS doctor and nurse on here, I am being constantly abused (I've even, on occasion, been threatened with rape or death) for saying Covid is real, deadly, and overwhelming our hospitals right now.
With guarded optimism, and occasional lapses into despair, I wonder what year two of #COVID19 has in store of us. In his brilliant new piece, @edyong209 walks us through what we can expect and, crucially, what we must *do* as we begin this next chapter. theatlantic.com/health/archive…
A real leader, a scientist, exuding compassion. The response: rousing applause.

Fantastic idea for schools and colleges with D&T resources: bishopsstortfordindependent.co.uk/news/birchwood…
This app has just been launched today with researchers at Guy’s & St Thomas’ & King’s college to help slow the spread of #COVID19 and identify at risk cases sooner by self-reporting your symptoms daily, even if you feel well. Download the app covid.joinzoe.com please RT
1. The govt strategy on #Coronavirus is more refined than those used in other countries and potentially very effective. But it is also riskier and based on a number of assumptions. They need to be correct, and the measures they introduce need to work when they are supposed to.
In a strange twist of fate, it seems the first coronavirus patient to be infected in the UK is from Haslemere -the very place we used for our 2018 citizen science experiment: the BBC Pandemic. Here's a news piece from the time. Bit close to home, huh. telegraph.co.uk/global-health/…

Sometimes you just want flowers and sparkles of sunshine
One of the cruelest things about Autistic/ADHD masking is that you learn to treat positive emotions as a warning sign that you're about to do something "wrong" and that it is therefore "safest for everyone" if you maintain a constant, low-key negative internal emotional state.
@Flowspringhq Electronica to focus and stay efficient to classical for calm, thinking focus (writing, painting, planning, and everything in between depending on task or type. I cannot listen to anything with words, even if I know the lyrics without thought, any work draws my attention to it.
@Ingafitzgerald1 @SNeurotypicals I agree with that statement. I've always thought the mutants from X-Men are a great metaphor for autism... some of us have awesome powers, some of us have debilitating "powers" (like Rogue), some of us pass as human, some of us don't, and the humans hate all of us
Right. As a heavy tweeter/content creator who is now maintaining BOTH a Twitter and Mastodon presence, here is a short guide to what I have set up, how to do it and lessons I've learned, for others. TLDR: It's been WAY less hassle than I expected thanks to tips from followers /1
…this doesn’t account for the sinister f*ckery of humans. When I was a teenager I witnessed such harmful homophobia that it made me bury a part of myself completely. I’ve only realised it’s still there in the last 2 yrs. Bricking it slightly, but I’m bi 💗💜💙 #BiVisibilityDay
@kosmickkid @silverpebble Sorry but the doctor sound misinformed - as sadly so many are re female hormones - replacing oestrogen via hrt can have protective effect for heart health - for more info - podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the…
I only ever drink from one cup. I’m obsessed with truth and justice. I like to research feminists from history. Smells bother me enormously. I’m seriously avoidant of medical intervention. Don’t touch me. Don’t try to talk to me if there’s any other noise.
@silverpebble The problem I have is that as well as being perimenopausal, I have fibromyalgia and long covid. All with very similar symptoms. Untangling which issue belongs to which label is impossible. 😔
@silverpebble I’ve found that talking about it gives me that ugly please-be-quiet feeling. It’s even in my #ActuallyAutistic report as an example I used of saying the wrong stuff, being inappropriate. The fact talking abt it publicly cd change the world escapes some folk, in my experience!
@silverpebble @menomatters is a great source of information, and they campaign to have menopause understood and discussed rather than treated as an embarrassment. x
Fair warning: perimenopausal content. Those in this zone, do you have fatigue so bad your bones feel as though they’re heavier than lead & it’s so hard to move sometimes the air feels like treacle? Unfollow if you wish but this stuff really isn’t talked about enough.
I expected hardly anyone to answer but so many of you have-this is clearly very common & it can be debilitating but we just try to get tf on with things bc well, we’re women. Why are we not TOLD about this? Stigma? Sadness about the end of fertility? Way more discourse needed.
