The inquest into my cousin’s death begins in October. We now have just 6 weeks to raise the money to pay for legal fees. I know I have asked before and I’m sorry to ask again but please, donate and share if you can.

@tiredmommy1010 @focusfronting I'm in the UK so maybe it's a cultural difference. Only very rich people have open bars in my experience.

@j4lebi @ciscstudies @UniKentEnglish @RebeccaTillett1 @LaraAtkin Congrats!

We talk about student 'loans' in the UK when really our system is just a slightly roundabout graduate tax.
Think about it like that and it's much easier. Why lose your mind about a pile of 'debt' that doesn't really exist? Just forget about it. It's fine.

@drsiwalker Because he's not daft. He knows what he's doing. He's absolutely not ignorant to the importance of the humanities.

@timgill924 Convinced this is satire

[Stuart Bradwel @stuartbradwel]

@__GeorgiaTurner Yeah, it just makes me roll my eyes rather than get angry. I kinda look at it the same way I do people buying gluten free bread as a fad. It's not a zero sum game though, and it's pointless getting mad at individuals rather than the broader context of accessibility issues.

[Stuart Bradwel @stuartbradwel]

Unpopular opinion, but I don't really care. If people without diabetes want to use a CGM then... OK? It's pointless at best but sure, whatever. The focus should surely be ensuring these devices are accessible to PWD, whereas this just feels kinda like a culture war distraction.

Wide-ranging and incredibly detailed in its research, “Insulin: A Hundred Year History” @stuartbradwel details the successes and struggles of diabetics over decades. The tension between patients and providers and a system that routinely fails them is laid bare. We must do better

[Stuart Bradwel @stuartbradwel]

As someone who wrote a thesis and a book on insulin and diabetes I second this. The amount of people I've spoken to who developed eating disorders because of this shit.

@Aaron_Good_ @eshaLegal I know Jerry Seinfeld himself is awful but I'll be very sad if it turns out Larry David also has the worst politics.

[Stuart Bradwel @stuartbradwel]

@eshaLegal It's weird because despite the occasional miss, Curb Your Enthusiasm is genuinely very funny, so Larry David does know how to make a good sitcom. Seinfeld was probably pretty revolutionary in style back in the day, but it feels dated now. Shame the lead actor is a total ass.

@ragefighthouse Back in 2007/8 as I went into YEAR 12 my school got a new head of sixth who insisted people were in at 9am regardless of whether they had classes and used to walk around berating people in their free periods for chatting/not studying. It was absurd and miserable, awful bloke.
