🚨🚨🚨Holy shit: A father of a child who was killed in the Uvalde school shooting SLAMMED Texas legislators for their “useless thoughts and prayers.”
Brett Cross boldly testified in front of a Texas House committee in support of legislation that would raise the minimum age to buy semi-automatic weapons from 18 to 21.
Brett Cross: “I'm so sick of hearing those three words from our elected officials…
While your prayers may have comforted you, they did nothing to absolve our pain...
Your thoughts and prayers didn't stop an 18 year old from purchasing two high powered semi automatic rifles and all of those rounds of ammunition.
Your thoughts and prayers didn't stop us from having to bury our children and two teachers.
Your thoughts and prayers haven't done anything in the 329 days since Uziel was shot through his stomach exiting his spine.
Your thoughts and prayers are useless unless you have thought and prayed for legislation that you can help enact that could change this.”
Thank you so much to Brett Cross and these BRAVE parents for speaking out!

@Dyson Hi, It's been a week since I messaged AskDyson - no answer yet. I first messaged Dyson Support via email before Christmas - also without a response. How can I go about returning the faulty item?

Poor Derek.
The challenge with #micromanaging is that nobody thinks they are doing it – rather, they see themselves as helping somebody else get their job done.
So, what to do? 🧵
It was a pleasure taking part in this recent panel - in which we talked about the risk, reward, and time implications of going back to uni:

Wonderful to see the @univofstandrews recognised as the UK's best, unseating the Oxbridge duopoly for the first time in 30 yrs.
As a trustee of the University’s US Foundation, I've seen the whole team show remarkable leadership during the pandemic...
