Last year my sister was diagnosed with MND. She has received support from @mndassoc who provided technology to help her voice be heard as MND has taken away her speech. This video (part 2) is her addressing a room full of people #MND#Family#HopeforaCure#MNDA#proudsister
ALS took Nick’s arm mobility. Now, he can control a robotic arm with his Neuralink device to feed himself.
“Life with my BCI has been and continues to be so surreal and so rewarding. Can’t wait to see what comes next!”
@vinted my account has been blocked and no specific reason has been given. I now can’t even access my messages on the app to raise this as an issue. All I have received is automated messages. What is your customer services email please?
“I got spanked, and I turned out fine” needs to be looked at deeper.
- Can you handle your emotions without having outbursts or meltdowns?
- What do your relationships look like?
- How do people close to you feel in your presence?
- Do your respect your body?
- Do you need substances to cope?
Fine can mean you exist in survival mode. Humans are meant to thrive. Abuse does not set up the foundation for us to thrive. It’s sets the foundation for shame, high defensiveness, and dysfunctional relationships.
It’s not all men, no. Of course it isn’t. But if a plane was crashing somewhere in the UK every day of the week then wouldn’t we want to maybe talk about what we’re teaching our pilots?
Thank you @SteveDavid845 for highlighting this long list of PPE contracts handed out to Tory donors. Yesterday @GoodLawProject reported £15 billion of PPE has been unused
Possibly the biggest political scandal of my lifetime
With a bit of luck, soon we’ll be living in a world where all animals are treated with respect.

@SkyNews Disgusting @SkyNews - a female politician does a wide ranging interview and you decide to focus on her body and her role as a mother/grandmother. Nothing about what she has to say about her political life. But a woman’s only worth is her body and her role as a mother right?!
You might not know it, but in 2019, a total of 100 Westminster MPs voted to keep abortion illegal in Northern Ireland.
Don't, for even a second, think these people wouldn't try and do the same thing here.
So, for your convenience, here's a list of every single one of them:
If US Supreme Court overturning #RoeVWade was about babies, there would be:
Universal healthcare
Free birth control
Free education
Free daycare
Child support
Criminalisation of all rape & child marriage
As with all abuse of women, this is purely about male power and control
Forced birth in a country with:
—No universal healthcare
—No universal childcare
—No paid family & medical leave
—One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations
This isn't about "life." It's about control.
