Petition calling on the ban of all non-organic pesticides passes 6,000 signatures - unnecessary chemicals contributing to wildlife decline that professionals require training and qualifications for, yet anyone can buy in supermarkets and garden centres petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6244…

@naomicfisher Thank you for expressing this! We recently bought an extra controller to play Minecraft Dungeons as a family. I also know kids with less interested parents: left alone to play competitive, aggressive games they're way too young for (7/8yos playing Fortnite)

Why do I tell you this? Because embracing your child's love of video games is often framed as neglectful, and I think it is the opposite.When you enter your children's worlds, you gain knowledge. You can see what works. You can respond with nuance instead of blanket bans. 10/

It wasn't all good. My son found Freemium games in the early days & downloaded 27 before I realised. Our days were dominated by requests for money.He suggested we stopped paying bills to fund My Little Pony. I saw the games brought more frustration than joy & I deleted them. 8/

@comeatthekinguk Just found out who you're referring to: Moyles! I guess he thinks signed bands just appear out of thin air?! I've never respected his opinion, so not gonna start now. Punching down is a huge sign of insecurity.

Radio 1 DJ who's been playing shite pop spoon fed by the highest paying labels for 10 years thinks unsigned bands putting everything they can into their music are crap. What a wanker.

With your help the petition to ban the worst pesticides (residual & systemic) is at almost five and a half thousand supporters! If any publication, org or public figure can now help, we need you. The most important thing horticulture can do this year. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6244…

@scuffeddocs @Theholisticpsyc I have tantrums and would describe them as such because they come from a place of being emotionally unseen/repressed as a little child. Recognising I am emotionally stuck in an earlier developmental phase is helping me work through it.

It's actually quite common (and not really talked about) for adults to tantrum. Here's how to get out of a tantrum:

@chilternbear11 I'm loathe to reply due to the ignorance/dismissiveness here, but I'm seeking an adult diagnosis myself so have done tonnes of research. Adhd is a difference in brain structure and chemistry. I have struggled all my life but had no label for it.

@TheADHDadults @thetimes Please can someone clarify Lawson's email address given at the bottom of the piece (but slightly cut off in the photo)? I am not a Times subscriber, but I have (impulsively and at the expense of the work I *should* be doing) written a lengthy reply.

@adamfare1996 Yes, very well said. Stress and trauma created by unchecked capitalism are underacknowledged causes of MH problems: "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." (Quote attributed to J. Krishnamurti)

@LucyGoBag @RishiSunak It would be great to teach kids economic literacy to help them navigate life outside school/work: understanding mortgage/interest rates, inflation, investment. But it's better (for the rich), that regular folk don't know too much about this, I guess.

@kennyarnold1997 She was so concerned about the holocaust, she called out co-host Jimmy Carr on his vile 'joke' about the Roma people who were genocided by the Nazis and refused to work with him until he apologised. Oh wait NO! SHE DIDN'T SAY A WORD! GRT Lives Matter.

A Tory enabler, for the most racially divisive right wing government we’ve ever had, being honoured by the establishment she shithoused for, against a man with more integrity & anti racist spirit in his finger than this woman has in her whole body. is the perfect 2022 sum up.

Rachel Riley MBE 💙@RachelRileyRR

Incredibly proud to have just been awarded an MBE for services to Holocaust education. Grateful to everyone who has sent well wishes and support over the years. This is very much shared with so many people who also dedicate their time and energy to fighting anti-Jewish racism.

People tweeting their confusion that they're blocked by someone they've never interacted with...Could it be due to your abhorrent opinions? I've blocked more than I've followed on this hive of anti-science conspiracy and disgusting identity-based prejudice.
