@airchina my flight was cancelled and I'm stuck over night in Sydney. @StudentUniverse say your helpline is closed and as my travel agent they can't rebook my ticket. What do I do? What time does your phone open?

[Dr. Miranda Buck @MirandaBuck]

@StudentUniverse Stranded in Sydney for ten hours after flight was cancelled. What's the route for complaints when your travel agent isn't helping and seems to be suggesting I book new tickets at great cost?

@theTunnelBear please may I have more data?

Every TWO hours day and night a person in aged care in Australia dies of COVID. Every TWO HOURS.

Calling the Minister..... where are you?

You may be hearing the argument that before the rise of modern commercial infant formula, babies all ate breastmilk and everything was great. As a historian of infant feeding, let me tell you why that’s not true.

Hey Youths, it’s very okay if you want a “boring” sex life where sex feels good for you & your partner the whole time, & you both have orgasms, & say lovely things to each other, & there’s no violence, pain, or cruelty involved, then you do that 1000s of times throughout life.

Senator Lana Theis accused me by name of grooming and sexualizing children in an attempt to marginalize me for standing up against her marginalizing the LGBTQ community...in a fundraising email, for herself.

Hate wins when people like me stand by and let it happen. I won't.

I was talking to a patient recently about her different experiences using heroin vs fentanyl. She’s been using opioids a long time. Too long, by her count.

She explained the difference to me like this (shared with permission):

ADHDers! I’ve received a few requests from university students writing their dissertation on ADHD. They’re looking to interview:

🔵 People diagnosed with ADHD as adults

🔵 Black women with ADHD

I’m too preoccupied with my day job, so please like/comment if you’ll be interested

NEW PAPER ALERT 🥳 (and a content warning, that this one is unpleasant).

I am delighted to finally be able to share this with you all. This study looks at interpersonal victimisation in autistic adults (a short thread incoming).

My favourite thing about libraries is that you can make suggestions and they almost always say yes.
