In this time they have phoned me twice to ask if I still needed to be on the list or if they could remove me. Genuinely not sure what they can do for me at this stage but I'm staying on the list mainly because need to find out if they are real lol

'DIY or DIE' is not just a slogan, but a reflection of how lifesaving DIY can be. It is not unfair to say the community knows more about how to look after itself than most healthcare professionals, and we do an amazing job of taking care of ourselves and each other

I had a bi annual check up with the GIC last week. 3 years after my initial appointment. If I wasn't doing diy I dread to imagine the condition they'd leave me in

Just thought I would check on the waiting times for my local GIC and as I joined the waiting list in Sept 2017 I'm not too far off an initial appt now. So that's currently just over eight and a half years and counting to get any help and support via the NHS.

New university free speech complaints system to come into force this year Universities could face fines of £500,000 or 2% of their income if they are found to have failed to protect free speech.

This will be the reason why universities will end up feeling they have no choice but to provide a platform for extremists. It's a charter for protecting hate by punishing those who exercise their freedom to curate the voices that get heard on campus.

‘Things could go backwards’: Kezia Dugdale on safety, LGBTQ+ rights and the future of Stonewall Exclusive: Former Scottish Labour leader says she feels more scared as a lesbian today and calls for a kinder debate on transgender issues

Thanks Stonewall, but I'm probably not going to try and find common ground with people who don't think I have the right to exist

There should be a discord server that's exclusively for trans academics.

I imagine it would be quite badly organised and incredibly spicy, though that does seem to be most of the servers I’m on so maybe it's just me and my attraction to spicy chaos

The biggest change in HE in my lifetime has been the move towards making education a student funded business instead of a service

I strongly believe we all benefit from accessible education, yet our system favours high headcounts on low cost courses. Wonder how long it'll be before a uni goes bust?

Really interesting conversation today about ally training. While I think its good to know about identity and respectful communication, I think it should always include what happens when someone tells you they are thinking about coming out, and what support can we give someone has experienced abuse

Genuinely think making dark synth industrial music is pretty much mandatory seeing as I don't paint warhammer miniatures

Loving the canvassing at the moment. What's my main concern ahead of local elections? Existing free from persecution by the state, thanks for asking.

If you support trans rights but align yourself to a party that wants to harm me then I think you should reflect on your values

So all the high street bookies are open, but all the big supermarkets are shut.

Anyway this is the story of how I ended up in a ramen restaurant for lunch.

Doctors lose new jobs package as strike to go ahead The offer of 1,000 more training posts has been withdrawn after the union refused to scrap the planned six-day strike.

As these training posts would have ultimately benefited patients, it's hard to understand the logic in withdrawing them
