@benonwine Just keep turning 😆 #simpsons

Americans driving in the UK for the first time! 🤣🫣😅🤭 Does America not have roundabouts?😜

@NoContextBrits it needs to finish cooking, for a start

What’s missing from this breakfast?

@Rainmaker1973 so the frogs & locusts are next then?

Heavy rainfall on Hormuz Island washes iron oxide rich soil into the sea, turning the coastline blood red.

@_louise__ the Barry's teabags is 👌😂🫖

The scariest finding in this paper: the subjects couldn't tell it was happening. UPenn ran this study on 48 healthy adults. One group slept 8 hours. Another slept 6. Another slept 4. For 14 straight days. They tested cognitive performance every 2 hours from 7:30am to 11:30pm. The 6-hour group's reaction times, working memory, and sustained attention deteriorated on a near-linear curve. By day 14 they were performing at the same level as someone who hadn't slept at all in 48 hours. The 4-hour group hit that threshold by day 6. Here's the part that should unsettle everyone who thinks they "do fine" on 6 hours: the subjects' self-reported sleepiness flatlined after the first few days. Their brains kept getting worse. Their perception of how impaired they were stopped updating. The cognitive decline was invisible to the person experiencing it. The researchers found a hard threshold. Any wakefulness beyond 15.84 hours in a day produces cumulative neurobiological cost. That cost compounds every single day you exceed it and does not reset with a weekend of sleeping in. About 35% of American adults sleep less than 7 hours a night. 40% of those get 6 hours or less. In 1942 that number was 11%. We built an entire professional culture around a sleep schedule that this paper says is functionally equivalent to pulling consecutive all-nighters. "I'm fine on 6 hours" is the most common response to sleep research. The first thing chronic sleep debt destroys is your ability to notice chronic sleep debt.

@NiceGuyEddiek He'd definitely have kept, at least, farmers on side - knew there be a few votes in it for him for the next round. Whatever he was, he wasn't completely stupid!

Say what you will about Bertie (and a lot of it would be justified) but I would bet the house on it that if was Taoiseach, he would have talked to the protesters. #fuelprotests

@Dawson40M @thejournal_ie 👏👌

Do you think it's time for the fuel price protesters to stand down? jrnl.ie/7009923

@eoinneylon they could cut down on bicycle sheds and sending millions of euros abroad for a start...

One thing I've not heard anyone answer is, beyond the €250mn reduction in fuel taxes already in effect (costing the exchequer €4mn a day) where the shortfall should be made up from if we are to cut taxes substantially further? Spending on schools, hospitals, road maintenance?

@DrBradJohnson "breaking up fights; being cursed at, threatened...assaulted" - exactly this, and do you know what happened? Nothing, because I had to go teach my next class. I called in sick the next day though. Then, lo & behold, my contract wasn't renewed for the following year! @EdChatIE

We don’t have a classroom management problem. We have an emotional regulation crisis that teachers are being asked to handle. Somehow, “classroom management” has turned into: • de-escalating trauma • supporting anxiety and depression • calming panic attacks • breaking up fights • being cursed at, threatened, and even assaulted • being the counselor, social worker, and crisis team And at the same time… we remove the very things that actually help: • recess • movement • art • play • connection Teachers aren’t trained for this. And they shouldn’t have to be. Classroom management was never meant to do all of this. It’s about: relationships rules routines responsibility That’s it. It was never designed to replace what families, communities, and systems failed to provide. And until we stop offloading every societal failure onto schools, teachers will keep drowning under expectations no human can meet.

The Irish State this week formally banned a group of teachers from applying for promotion in their own schools. Not because of their performance. Not because of their qualifications. Because of which union they belong to. A thread. 🧵 #ASTIExcluded #WorkersRights #edchatie

@conorsmurf @DavidLarkin85 Ah Conor, that's a very poor take on it.

@DavidLarkin85 Yeah, the majority come by bus. Huge issue. All because a few lads want to feel big.

Schools are back on Monday. That usually means a lot of people also go back to work after taking a holiday with their kids. How are we all supposed to get to work? Do the school buses have fuel?

@MartinCorryTD @suilleabhain4 😆

He would have known what to do.

@viktumx @matthewdmarsden 'Irish is UK's ONLY chance.' For all those down the back - Ireland is NOT👏 part 👏of 👏the 👏UK 💚

It will only take one country in Europe to push back against their leftist leaders who are willfully destroying their culture, to inspire the others to follow. For a while it was looking like the UK would be the ones to lead the way. It will be Ireland.

@Selp765 Dear Uno - thanks for the cards, but we'll take it from here.

As únicas regras válidas no uno são as que você conseguir fazer o resto da mesa acreditar

@NaAmadan @Education_Ire 🙌😆

Hello @Education_Ire, in anticipation of large volume of cyclists to school next week, is there any chance you’d throw us €335,000 to build a bike shelter. I hear that’s around the go of them. #FuelProtest ⛽️

@IrishTimes That’s less of a negotiation & more of a manipulation strategy surely?

Farming and haulage groups have been told this afternoon the Government does have a package of supports ready, but it will not be announced until the blockade is lifted.

@suhail_nasim @IhabFathiSulima that's bad...no chance of successful pregnancy there :(

Which organ is shown here, and what is the most likely diagnosis? @IhabFathiSulima #SurgicalEmergency #MedTwitter

@PharmWise Start praying 🙏🫣😬

As the physician, what's the solution to this
