I didn't know what I would discover when I started to read the Epstein files. I'm not sure many women realize how far our world is run by a club of women-hating men

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

War is back in vogue and a zeal for war is spreading. The principle established after the Second World War, which prohibited nations from using force to violate the borders of others, has been completely undermined. #Peace is no longer sought as a gift and a desirable good in itself. Instead, peace is sought through weapons as a condition for asserting one’s own dominion. This gravely threatens the rule of law, which is the foundation of all peaceful civil coexistence.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

In the current context, we are seeing an actual “short circuit” of #HumanRights. The right to freedom of expression, freedom of conscience, religious freedom, and even the right to life are being restricted in the name of other so-called new rights, with the result that the very framework of human rights is losing its vitality and creating space for force and oppression. This occurs when each right becomes self-referential, and especially when it becomes disconnected from reality, nature, and truth.

@ddhitchens I am a doctor looking after older people. I am absolutely certain that a sense of being a burden will drive assisted suicide. And a lot of older people will just think this and decide but never speak about it so as not to hurt their families.

Today @neilcgray met staff working in Glasgow Royal Infirmary's frailty service - the team have reported strong progress in the last 18 months with average length of stay for vulnerable patients reducing by 3 days, without any increase in readmission

Spoke with Roddy O’Kane

leave volunteering in Gaza hospitals 💚
