@atrupar Absolute hogwash. Ghandi 5’4”, MLK Jr 5’6”, Hitler 5’9”, Trump 6’3”. Time, race/genes, sex doesn’t mean anything? Morons!

I've started my A&E shift today in crisis-ridden NHS. Having come from Afghanistan, I feel really proud to give back standing alongside my dedicated colleagues, many of whom are fellow refugees and migrants and are working extremely hard. Their service needs acknowledging.

Tories:"We need a high wage economy"
Nurses:"Can we have enough to live on please?"
Me:"Not that sort of high wage economy!"

Dear Simon Pegg, Maths is a hugely creative subject that underpins many creative industries: architecture, animation, special effects, music. To equate mathematicians with a drone army of date entering robots shows why a maths for artists 16-18 course would be a great idea.

Of all the lies we tell ourselves, the most comforting and damaging is the lie of an afterlife. There is no means by which our minds, that emerge from the interaction of several complex systems (brain, body, physical world, social world), could persist after death.🧵

@BladeoftheS @HKW1981 I don’t doubt that UK pension is low but metrics used for comparison should include tax rates and cost of living. I’m guessing Netherlands pays higher tax than US for instance

@AndreaWoo @kimmuise What happened to the new cancer centre in Vancouver? The current dilapidated building should have been replaced by now & investment was halted in the gloomy old one
