@mormolyke Did my undergrad at Oxford at a VERY posh college (ridiculous there are posher ones, because rich people). I hung around with the other (relatively or literally) poor kids and couldn't bear anyone else. Wondered if I had a chip on my shoulder till I went to a reunion: they suck

@ValourRain @UoM_PMH_PGRs @UM_UCU @UomHive @FBMH_DocAcad @AcademicChatter @UoM_DAGSoc @PGRwellbeingUoM I was diagnosed with a disability 1st yr if my PhD. It is the reason I won't be staying in academia, despite having successfully worked running clinical projects for years beforehand. I want to work in it, but it isn't worth the cost to my health and happiness.

This is incredible. I've been using this https://t.co/yM1B5O6FHu to reminisce with my grandma w/ Alzheimer's. Reminiscing one of the best-evidenced activities for AZ and may improve mood and cognition #Alzheimers #reminisce #dementia #therapy #colourize #colourise #DeepLearning
