Independent analyses estimate that your actions to dismantle USAID and drastically reduce lifesaving foreign aid have already killed 700,000 people. Here are some of those people. 🧵https://t.co/aKdQpk9QTW

WE ARE HULL CITY. WE ARE PREMIER LEAGUE!

[Telegraph Football @TeleFootball]

The Premier League’s new unlikely lads are Hull City, promoted after 105 minutes of attritional play-off football in scorching Wembley sunshine and the unerring sense of an opportunity fostered by Oli McBurnie.

This Yorkshire-born Scotland international is not going to the World Cup finals this summer, but he is returning to the Premier League in August. One might say that all paths led to the 95th minute of this jarring clash of styles, when McBurnie finally spied his chance amid the chaos and pounced on an error by Middlesbrough goalkeeper Sol Brynn to nudge his team ahead.

@TomChivers Interesting demonstration of the terrible house of cards of newspaper opinion pieces and related books (generally in nutrition). All reliant on the fact people don't really dig into the evidence or question things properly.

@JimBethell @timspector @OHA_updates @DollyvanT Why do you use such reductive language, when there is ample evidence about the effects of genetics on weight? And there is nothing there about how's it's basically poverty which drives dietary decisions

[Chris Hall @Hall_science]

@drrichjlaw @CloisterRes @DrBubbs Will be a great "side effect" if it ends up getting more people lifting weights

[Chris Hall @Hall_science]

@drrichjlaw @CloisterRes Find it odd that it doesn't get mentioned very often given there's a lot of talk about lean mass loss...seems a pretty straightforward fix. Like with lean mass loss with age, lift weights to prevent it.

Neither Ed nor @campbellclaret should be allowed to get onto their moral high horses on the coarsening of government. And perhaps an argument for more diversity on podcasts. Or just some self-awareness. (BTW I really like Political Currency)

@StephenORahilly As well as those relying or benefiting from a large social media following, media appearances etc. Even if not financial, simple, reductive messaging always wins out there and it's a massive COI

[Chris Hall @Hall_science]

Thank you.

I'm so tired of Dr Michael Mosley and his poorly evidenced health pronouncements - particularly the ones about dementia.

@StuartJRitchie "But a miracle jab it isn’t. Those weekly injections have to be combined with a low-calorie diet and exercise – which people already find difficult." - This also misunderstands the point that GLP1s affect the hedonic eating response, so diet is much easier to stick to
