#askKSB @bbctms when just starting out how do you decide/discern between spin or fast bowling?

This is such a good article. You can’t be a bit bipolar or a bit OCD. My most uncreative, unproductive days were when I was psychotic. I have lost YEARS of my life to mental illness, years I can’t get back. This article hits the nail on the head. Pls read! https://t.co/hGrzigzAth

Good advice on supporting young people after a distressing event (probably a good start for all ages).

Trans women aren't a risk to me. Societal fear of them is.

Excited to be going on a Pilgrmage of Reconciliation to the Holy Land next year. Looking forward to meeting and reflecting/spiritually wrestling with the other folk who are going #Tantur #BritishTrustForTantur

Having a good final day here at @Duinrell. Particularly great welcome from the person running the Dragonfly. They were great with the kids who seemed to need a little extra care too

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

The oppressive policing of the coronation is still being justified on the grounds that 3 people were arrested in the early hours for possession of rape alarms: "They might have been used to frighten the horses".
So who were these people and why were they carrying rape alarms? 🧵

This is outrageous waste of outcry to bully someone into giving back their medal that they earned by finishing an event rather than worrying about actual problems such as climate change or war or creating safe access to asylum

[Laura Kate Dale - Bluesky @LauraKBuzz.bsky.social @LaurakBuzz]

Trans woman comes 6,000th in a race, is bullied into handing back her participation medal for being trans, because "it's not not fair" to anyone who ran slower than her.

She's being bullied into giving back her medal, because of people who were behind 6,000th place.

Talking to MPs about improving #healthcare for ppl w Down syndrome in @HouseofLords2 today #WDSD2023 w @NDSPolicyGroup @LiamFox Diagnostic overshadowing is a real problem for us, when health care staff blame Down syndrome and don't look at our symptoms. Then things go wrong.

[Alice Coombs @Chapmannerisms]

It's my first World Down Syndrome Day as a psychiatry SpR in intellectual disability. Seemed a good time to cautiously venture back on twitter to learn #WDSD2023

[Martin Lewis @MartinSLewis]

Many asking me if I've seen this from Jack. Yes. Its a brilliant visceral example of the sadly long known fact that inflation is often regressive, hitting those-with-less more. It does get coverage, but is often lost. This makes it plain. Worth a read.

Trying to write a sermon for All Saints tomorrow and this is on loop in my head...

N - NEVER EVER by All Saints

Tonight we bring you the utterly timeless second single from the first record I owned, All Saints’ 1997 masterful debut album.

Join us as @BenMossFolk plays 2 INSTRUMENTS, I snap my fingers and we dig around to find our own peace of mind. Love ya! X

On World Sexual Health Day, and always, look after yourself. If you choose to have sex:

✅ Be safe
✅ Have fun
✅ Ensure it is consensual

#ImAFeministBut today in an email I apologised that said email might come across more assertive than I would be in a meeting.

[Femi @Femi_sorry]

I no longer have any problem calling all 357 Tory MPs fascists because...

Fascism involves the forceful suppression of opposition and EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM just voted for police to arrest protesters who shout too loudly. #PoliceCrackdownBill #PolicingBill

[Trans Actual @TransActualUK]

Things the UK's beautiful trans community have achieved so far this year:
Reported on Trans Pride because the mainstream press (apart from The Independent) didn't.
Shared info and supported people on the phallo/meta waiting list because NHS didn't think it necessary.

Please never forget that Chauvin is going to prison today not because the legal system works but because Darnella Frazier captured video that prevented the city of Minneapolis from engaging in a cover up.

[Refugee Council 🧡 @refugeecouncil]

Today’s @CommonsPAC evidence session with some of the most senior officials at the Home Office has just finished. It covered a range of issues including asylum accommodation, asylum support payments and unaccompanied children (watch again here: https://t.co/e0CKfnGJZU) (THREAD)
