Dear @British_Airways website, can you not be so broken for once? What's with this new site within old site nonsense? Literally loading family members page since 18hrs ago.

Please consider and think carefully that the editor of perhaps the most important urban studies journal in the world is living in a city presently under massive bombardment by genocidaires

[Kathia Sya @myirt]

@bytebot Both i believe.

@discoveryplus can't get the country the reigning All England champion represents despite it being spelled out on his jersey.

Stop calling cica "a star ingredient". It's short for cicatrix, a type of post-trauma flat scar on skin. The name you're after is centella asiatica. Products focused on cica(scar) care happen to feature it. Not all do.

Insane to privatise the access to vaccines in a context of a national and global health emergency. Countries more skeptical of universal healthcare have embraced the need for a national level rollout. That's the only impartial way it can reach everyone equally.

Selangor has announced that employers will be able to buy #Covid19 vaccines for their employees through the Selangkah app. Should a similar programme be opened up to companies nationwide? #BFMPoll #MorningRun

@alexrhystaylor Yep. Swung by for a preview last two days already. I don't even see leaves on trees yet. Where is this stuff even being pumped out of? Luckily we can wear masks out during polleb season now and not have to explain too much.

[Kathia Sya @myirt]

@normasalim Yup. Here too.

[Kathia Sya @myirt]

@Beardlyfunke Do I qualify as one such subject? 😂😂

Amplifying this. I only passed because 1) I tutored (I)GSCE students in British History for years. 2) lifetime steeped in standardised testing experience 3) 200 yrs of colonialism => English as 1st language + UK history osmosised

For the past two months I have tried to help a friend to study for the #LifeintheUKTest. She works as a cleaner and for a few years, many years ago, she was the only person who I could trust to pick my kid from school & not forget him there or simply not turn up as others did. ⬇️

@martynkelly @jesshigham_ Wake up and bed time light v.important. Without bed time light, day time feels sleepy, night time = max insomnia. SAD management is year-long. Avoid being in the light till too late in PM during UK summers. Light disparity makes autumn harder. Happy to DM for more chats!

[Kathia Sya @myirt]

@martynkelly @jesshigham_ I've battled SAD for 18 yrs. Lightboxes can work but as part of a good circadian rhythm regime. Indoor lighting with colour temp change v.important. The aim is to create lighting schedule where dawn breaks at 6AM and dusk at 7PM.

Maybe this is my sign to start a roasted sweet potato stand. Although I doubt that would be seen as a crowd drawing activity in Britain. Unless it came with booze.

What if we spent Covid winter outside — and enjoyed it? https://t.co/HSbXO3xFAj

[Kathia Sya @myirt]

@alexrhystaylor 😲 that's an interesting route option. Is it more socially distanced? Or just one that allows for convenient bike use all the way?

[Kathia Sya @myirt]

@Beardlyfunke Sien right?
