@offspring Can't wait for Wembley tonight! I'm going with my friend Adam Cooper, who is a man that brings the fun and has always been there for me. Any chance of dedicating a song to him?

@owenshift I still don't see any evidence for the unethical claim. There is a possibility, yes, but without evidence it doesn't mean anything.

If you want to test your claim they invite it on their website:

Transparency is a huge topic in ethical business that is going to get bigger. Always nice to (rare) examples

[anita @neats29]

This is such a cool example of transparency by an ethical clothing brand @3RDROCK. Only 5% profit really shocked me. The software engineer in me immediately wants to make the “45% operating costs” more efficient 🤔

@thebodycoach You are heading for national treasure status, sir.

[Robin 🐦 @1000happysteps]

@owenshift Do you have proof that their operations cost is less than 45%, or is this just cynicism?

In my experience operations does cost 45%, if not more.

You might be able to tell if a child will have depression from their BABY TEETH. That's amazing and bananas.

Maybe the tooth fairy should retrain?

Understanding hallucinations if complicated. Much like your thoughts, there are some physical representations, but 'it' is also not there.

Psychologists have body-mapped the hallucination of those with psychosis.

One step closer to reality – whatever that is.

Always looks for reasons to be optimistic (being pessimistic is too easy), and just heard of The Earthshot Prize.

Every year 5 projects, that are "for our planet [and] if achieved by 2030 will improve life for us all, for generations to come", are awarded £1million.

On my fitness journey I recently discovered the "what am I doing with my life?" exercise

[Robin 🐦 @1000happysteps]

@shiraeis Has the gratitude been active or passive?

[Robin 🐦 @1000happysteps]

@EvanCarmichael I thought that says "epic event! Let's good!" - I liked the sentiment

[Robin 🐦 @1000happysteps]

Kudos to those that orchestrated the "hustle" culture, convincing the working class to add to the economy on their weekends as well as their weekdays, to treat themselves as branded products, to ignore their wiring telling them to rest and be.

@mcgee_dadjokes @benegotherit This is 100% why I clicked on this thread. Bad Dad jokes. Keep 'em coming!

[Robin 🐦 @1000happysteps]

@DiamonDie Really interesting, they've been so helpful for you. Thankyou for sharing!

[Robin 🐦 @1000happysteps]

It's awesome that the psychological need for personal progress can be met by small achievements.

For approx 2 months I've been tackling the 'Dad bod' with a plant-based high-protein diet, calorie tracking, and HIIT workouts. The weight is going down!

I usually read dead authors, but @matt's exploration of what it means to be human was a pleasant change.

I read it during National Lockdown, and it was comforting to be reminded it's not unusual to be fragile, nor should it be unexpected to be strong.
