10 years ago today we said goodbye to my amazing dad.

It only seems fitting that to mark a whole decade without him I have done something completely beyond my ability & got a place in the @LondonMarathon 2024 to raise money for @macmillancancer.

Resident Doctors are incredibly undervalued

Their request for pay restoration is a bargain!

there's just no way that strange women lying in ponds distributing swords could be even half as bad as this

Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.

Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl

It has been <1 month an I am already sick of @AmericanExpress NZ’s shit. Did not learn my lesson from their 0/10 UK customer service evidently 💩

@KatPaton13 Resident doctors committee rep in first instance. Get the pay discrepancy explanation in writing if you can. Then BMA

[Alice @cappsperhaps]

@deaflibertarian Why not get someone like @StationCDRKelly or @Cmdr_Hadfield or @astro_timpeake who are proper scientists?

i think emergency medicine was designed in a lab to be the only job that people with adhd can do without wanting to kill themselves out of boredom every day theyre at work

Prophetic scene

My most boomer opinion is that QR codes for ordering in restaurants are the absolute fucking worst and I wish they would die.

@HMRCcustomers: “good news! you can register for self assessment tax if your address is outside the UK”
Also @HMRCcustomers: address outside the UK? What the fuck is this? Can’t compute. Send us a paper form in the year of our lord 2026

[Alice @cappsperhaps]

The NHS’s pathological opposition to any kind of change is actually comical at this point.

[The BMJ @bmj_latest]

Doctors and patient groups have raised ethical and safety concerns over plans to nationally roll out an AI tool that writes hospital discharge letters

@DrEilidhMaria NEED the link for the original piece because currently my timeline is just full of ✨ discourse ✨

@phantom_threadz This feels like a good @restisents rabbit hole to go down…

[Alice @cappsperhaps]

Feeling good about myself today so logged on to check my student loan balance. Over £6.5k in interest added vs £1700 paid off last year. Now sitting at a whopping £105k (yes, it’s grown by another 5k). What a joke

[Alice @cappsperhaps]

Time for a rewatch in her honour. Absolutely gutting news.

[Lin Mei @linmeitalks]

Not sure why people can’t comprehend how student loan/debt should be treated as a scandal.

Most of us were TOLD at school…. When we were CHILDREN, you’ll get a loan which will have minimal impact on you, don’t worry about it too much, just apply on UCAS and hope for the best.

No one told us about the increase of crippling interest, how it will affect your ability to buy a house and your general take home income, with little hope of paying it off…..

No one thought …. Let’s ensure these financial products are fully understood by these bunch of KIDS who have never even had a credit card or an overdraft in life.

How can people understand misselling for car loans, Accident claims, loans sharks, but not this??

[Alice @cappsperhaps]

@drraja_ Same here in NZ. Never had leave rejected. Was allowed to take week off unpaid with notice (hadn’t accrued enough leave) to go back to the UK for a big life event. Not even comparable

[Alice @cappsperhaps]

@ebtapper As a lowly ED resident, can I request a micro teach? Cause I have had a non-zero number of experiences of being told not to tap ascites in a ?SBP pt because of an abnormal INR…
