Does anyone else think this sign on the wards is asking a bit too much of our inpatients with advanced cognitive impairment? 😉

@FOXSportsAUS The decision to end this wonderful, uplifting, beautiful show is beyond belief. It has been one of the consistent highlights in weekly life in Australia for so many who see the meaning & joy of sport. All the best to Tony Squires & the crew. We'll miss you #backpage

@Grinspoon Absolutely outstanding set tonight guys! Pumping atmosphere and great sound, amongst the NYE fireworks. Loved it 💥🤘

@benny_alexander So many reasons... overwhelming work and family priorities competing deep into downtime & sleeptime; distractions, like social media and streaming; truckloads of contradictory or confusing online exercise & nutritional advice; caffeine abundance to circumvent sleep (my nemesis)..

[World Central Kitchen @WCKitchen]

The first trucks of WCK food made it into Gaza today—these supplies went to our partners @AneraOrg who’ve been working tirelessly feeding thousands of families each day. Our team is doing everything possible to get many more trucks of aid as quickly as possible to people in need.

Sometimes a father has to let things go..

To keep things going for his family.

One of the most devastating moments was when my 13 year old Daughter said: “Dad, I can’t write my name anymore.” #BrainCancer took away her motor skills & eventually, my Ashley was no longer able to speak, swallow, eat or move her limbs by herself. 💔 If you have a healthy Child, say your blessings, hug them & tell them that you love them every single day. I would do anything for this. Please follow, remember my Ashley & show all the love you possibly can to our #ChildhoodCancer community.

Did anyone just (staggeringly) watch 9 ads interjected before the first ball of the 2nd Test on (the awful) @9Now, only to miss the first 3 deliveries? Why doesn't @FoxCricket have pay-to-view broadcasting rights? #Ashes #ENGvsAUS

[TobyGeriMed+Music @TobyGerisMusic]

Why oh why can't The Ashes be screened 'on demand' by
@channel9 with their @9Now app?
Surely in 2023 we can make the viewing of Australia's biggest sports event better than this, so ppl can stream from the start if they're late to live play? Gutted 😑

This is one of the Situational Judgement Tests (SJTs) that final year medical students in the UK sit. It is worth 50% of their mark. And I can confidently say it is RUBBISH. What is this appalling #presenteeism and frank workplace #bullying? 🤨
Sort it out, @gmcuk. 👎#MedEd

[Rosie Saunt RD @rosie_saunt]

🫠’How many children do you have?’ is so hard to navigate. Mentioning Enzo dying can halt playground conversations. But only mentioning our 2nd son - or equally saying ‘I’ve got two’-can lead to a really awful web of lies. I’m not sure this can ever be mastered. #childloss

@ChristypDoran It was such a great occasion, afternoon rugby in warm sunshine, with a carnival atmosphere. So happy to have rugby back at @TheAdelaideOval. Pleaassse come back again soon @wallabies! Thanks to Wallabies, inc. Tim Horan, for playing with our SA kids at the morning gala 👍

[TobyGeriMed+Music @TobyGerisMusic]

@MarkHohenberg @CCIM_official @DrSarahDalton @mindfullmedic @AsheCoxon @raghavmganesh @zjtan512 @nswaci @AMA_NSW @eHealthNSW @drmarcustan @gillyminn @TheInstituteDH @merrancooper Ah, not open to SA? 😥

[TobyGeriMed+Music @TobyGerisMusic]

@WorldRugby PLEASE guys can we address the insanity of the so-called deliberate knock-on rule? So subjective... how does an excessively involved TMO know the "intent" of a player to call an intercept "deliberate" if they drop the ball? #AUSvsENG

[TobyGeriMed+Music @TobyGerisMusic]

@StanSportRugby Guys, love your coverage, but please give us the option to avert our eyes if you're going to tell us all the scores from earlier games... a no spoilers option?

[TobyGeriMed+Music @TobyGerisMusic]

@MarkHohenberg Oh man that is a dream come true, soo jealous!

[Dr Shane Huntington OAM @DrShaneRRR]

Schools term 1 prediction:
1. Open schools on time, no added protections
2. Large numbers of teachers and staff off sick. Others resign or on leave.
3. Kids back home but without remote learning
4. Government presser - “nobody could have predicted this”.
🤦‍♂️

[Joseph Allen @j_g_allen]

I see a lot of people - on both "sides" - making simple mistakes about masks. I've studied PPE, taught PPE, and overseen PPE programs, including teams implementing fit testing in hospitals, long before covid.

🥰This is my favourite photo of Enzo-wearing his little immunotherapy piglet backpack. I think it captures how kind & funny he was. He only had 3 Christmases: 2 of which were diagnosis/relapse, so this is a surreal time of year. Sending love to other bereaved parents 🦌 #misshim
