[Co-Charger Electric Vehicle Charging @co_charger]

Some say they’ll switch to an EV ‘when the charging is easy.’

Well, surprise—it already is.

80% of charging happens at home, and with Co Charger, you don’t even need your own charger.

No more excuses… just clean, quiet driving.

About that empty bus lane...

"... brimful of the shared delight in improvisation that Monk seems to trigger so reliably in suitably talented interpreters ... these versions stand with any others I’ve heard, including the ones left us by the composer."

Rarely post here now but just popping back to say, if you were waiting for BlueSky to get interesting, that’s really happened now. Move over and you’ll likely not miss new, enshittified twitter at all.

[The Be-Bop Club @TheBeBopClub]

Dem bones... Next Thursday Oct 31 trombonist Joe Bradford celebrates another master of the instrument with a tribute to bebop legend J J Johnson. With Greg Sterland - tenor sax, Dorian Childs-Prophet - piano, Chris Jones - bass, Paolo Adamo - drums

[jon turney @jonWturney]

@ProfessorPaulC1 Ha. I was thinking of my other half, who has a book proposal on the go…

[The Be-Bop Club @TheBeBopClub]

tomorrow!

[jon turney @jonWturney]

@ProfessorPaulC1 Ha - now another Prof emerita who is still caught up with writing... :)

[jon turney @jonWturney]

@ProfessorPaulC1 yes, I took a look there - some interesting overlaps between health communication and the new "discipline"* I helped get going a bit: science communication...

* not really a discipline

BTW do you know Brigitte Nerlich? https://t.co/9yhDt4U6Mq

I don't oppose all contracted out provision but these kind of services are definitely not suitable - the undercut just makes delivery far worse (as family experience of maternity care switch to this provider in another locality demonstrates)

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

Wow. A local NHS consortium bid for this contract - yet it’s just been awarded to @HCRGCareGroup, the private company that was once Virgin Care.

@HCRGCareGroup will now - for profit - provide community care across all of Bath, Swindon, NE Somerset & Wiltshire.

Heartbreaking 😔
