The details here sound *exactly* the same as what I recall from my own primary and secondary schools in the 1970s and 1980s.

When I post a link it’s not uploading the article preview/photo like it normally does.
Anyone know why that might be?

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.
Medical gaslighting occurs when a medical professional wrongly tells a patient that there is nothing wrong with them, or that their medical condition is less severe than it truly is. Medical gaslighting can be extremely harmful to patients. The effects can include: PTSD Loss of self-confidence Loss of trust in medical professionals Not seeking needed medical care Loss of family support (if the doctor doesn’t believe you’re sick, why should your family?) Loss of support and accommodations at work
"Medical gaslighting is serious, harmful, and out of control: I’ve been working through what medical gaslighting is, how we should talk about it, & how it should be dealt with. Here’s where I’m at" by @kjohnstone.bsky.social

Dan Rather represents an era when journalism wasn't as polarized into political groups. I miss those days. 😭
A photo of some decoration above a door at the Oval Office. There's a flying cherub surrounded by some trim. Everything looks like it has been covered by gold foil, like you'd find on a Cadbury bunny.
The White House put up Cadbury decorations for Easter.
War, what is it good for? 🙌🏽
Absolutely nothing‼️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Love this!
At present, politics is downstream from money.

Dr O’Sullivan writes and says outloud what, the majority of health professionals seem to believe. Hence the halting of the DHSC care plan and hence the frightening lack of care or interest for the plight of #ME and #LC sufferers.Looking through her own narrow window she sees us all as psychosomatic
Like many in the ME community I’m deeply disturbed at the news that DHSC is pausing work on a specialist service for very severe ME until April 2027. It’s been good then to be able to talk with minister Sharon Hodgson, and Carolyn Leary from Forward ME. The very understandable concerns are heard.
The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.

Right.
Well you saw what I posted the other day about meningococcal survival in aerosol.
I’m happy to stake my professional reputation on wearing masks, especially respirators, being helpful.
Patient Education: Viral Illness/ Common Cold The common cold is a group of symptoms caused by a number of different viruses, including severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes COVID-19. Children under six years average six to eight colds per year (up to one per month, September through April), with symptoms lasting an average of 14 days. This means that a child could be ill with intermittent cold symptoms for nearly half of the days in this time period, without cause for concern.
Hi, so my 6yo needed to go to the after hours clinic for an ear infection & fever (Covid negative on plus life) & they gave me a patient info sheet on viral illnesses and guess what?
They are calling Covid a common cold now 🫠
The only mainstream journalists speaking truth to power these days are cartoonists

VIRUSES MAKE YOU MORE PRONE TO BACTERIAL INFECTIONS
I’m sorry I’m writing with bad spelling and broken threads.
I’m so busy I need eight eyes and four pairs of arms… but I had to stop to clear up the “don’t wear masks they’ll cause panic” nonsense in the face of a serious meningitis outbreak.
