Dr Emily Arden-Close

@AnnieBruton Happy Birthday! Sounds like a lovely day.

It’s my birthday, so I get to choose the evening I desire…. which happens to be fish & chips for supper with champagne, and then rewatching The Goodbye Girl. Perfectamundo.

Great pleasure to attend the #GambleAware24 annual conference and present our poster from the secondary analysis project today highlighting relative harms of certain products, with @ArdenClose @johnmcalaney @GamResearchBU Our poster can be found here: gambleawareconference.org/poster-stigma

I am very grateful to have been invited to the grand opening of the new @GordonMoodyOrg residential treatment centre today with @ArdenClose for people experiencing gambling harm.

@JhinEleventh @SAfrikaCath @Arin_Yumi More likely to be the other way round. Speakers of most other languages speak Japanese better than they read it.

@SAfrikaCath @Arin_Yumi You might be able to read it and still not speak the language tho

A sign outside a restaurant in Kyoto. The English and Chinese text says the restaurant is full The small red text on Japanese at the bottom says "If you can read this, you may come in"

@hashjenni I wear makeup for work or (rare) nights out, but not to work from home/stay in.

Are there any females that do not wear make-up everyday? 🤔

As the Conference Chair I definitely recommend attending.

@JaneStRetCP @richardosefton I agree. My MP was re-elected. I didn’t vote for her (mainly because I don’t support her party) but she is always very good about responding promptly to all her constituents, as an MP should be.

#Reform came second in 103 seats, 93 of which were #Labour winners. What does this tell us? It tells us that they lost in at least 103 seats. That’s it. Under our current system that’s ALL it tells us. If you were going to vote for Reform then you would have done so a few days ago. The reform voters were probably the most exercised of all voters. Imo that 15% is their ceiling. Deep down we are NOT a racist nation, we are a caring one and I’ll fight for it to stay that way. YOU ARE NOT THE SILENT MAJORITY. AS THOUGHT, YOU ARE THE LOUD MINORITY. 75% of the electorate are NOT Reform voters. And that’s with a low (60%) turn out too. If it had been 100 percent I very much doubt that reform vote would grow, meaning their vote share would be much, much lower.

@CatherineTalb Great you could make it to #dhpconf

Two very sensible health psychology researchers at #dhpconf So great to meet my wonderful collaborator in person!! 😃

Fuming with @Apple Just been to Apple Store Southampton. Less than 1 month after having bought a new laptop battery for approximately £160 the logic board on the computer has gone. No refund. Surely that would have been picked up at the last diagnostic.

@MartinSLewis I go to an NHS dentist where I lived 10 years ago (1/2 hour drive) as none available in my small town, just private

Today's Twitter Poll: Do you have a dentist in the UK? Which of these is CLOSEST to your situation.

Very excited to be delivering a BPS webinar today with @ArdenClose on Online Gambling: The signs, risks, impact, and support available. @GamResearchBU @Bournemouth_Psy @divhealthpsych

@ChloeinHE @bournemouthuni @DrJuliaTaylor @DrFionaKnight Congratulations!
