10 years ago today we said goodbye to my amazing dad. It only seems fitting that to mark a whole decade without him I have done something completely beyond my ability & got a place in the @LondonMarathon 2024 to raise money for @macmillancancer. justgiving.com/fundraising/al…

@KatPaton13 Resident doctors committee rep in first instance. Get the pay discrepancy explanation in writing if you can. Then BMA

Looking for advice on who to escalate pay and rota issues to, because every time I raise it with my rota coordinator it's either ignored, or receives an explanation that doesn't actually address the issue. The 2 key issues are: 1. The same few people (who don't even work in the..

@deaflibertarian Why not get someone like @StationCDRKelly or @Cmdr_Hadfield or @astro_timpeake who are proper scientists?

What's the chance of having Elon Musk do a virtual chat about rockets with my 5th grade deaf students who are studying space stuff? Like 1 in a million?

i think emergency medicine was designed in a lab to be the only job that people with adhd can do without wanting to kill themselves out of boredom every day theyre at work

Prophetic scene "You start saddling up camels in every country in the Middle East then you better be prepared to spend the next 50 years sifting through sand because this isn't a quick run on the beach, Jed. This is the new world order."

My most boomer opinion is that QR codes for ordering in restaurants are the absolute fucking worst and I wish they would die.

@HMRCcustomers: “good news! you can register for self assessment tax if your address is outside the UK” Also @HMRCcustomers: address outside the UK? What the fuck is this? Can’t compute. Send us a paper form in the year of our lord 2026

The NHS’s pathological opposition to any kind of change is actually comical at this point.

@DrEilidhMaria NEED the link for the original piece because currently my timeline is just full of ✨ discourse ✨

@phantom_threadz This feels like a good @restisents rabbit hole to go down…

If Jessie Buckley wins for playing Anne Hathaway in Hamnet, will that be the first time someone has won the Oscar for playing a character with the same name though not the same person as a previous Oscar winner?

Feeling good about myself today so logged on to check my student loan balance. Over £6.5k in interest added vs £1700 paid off last year. Now sitting at a whopping £105k (yes, it’s grown by another 5k). What a joke

Time for a rewatch in her honour. Absolutely gutting news.

Not sure why people can’t comprehend how student loan/debt should be treated as a scandal. Most of us were TOLD at school…. When we were CHILDREN, you’ll get a loan which will have minimal impact on you, don’t worry about it too much, just apply on UCAS and hope for the best. No one told us about the increase of crippling interest, how it will affect your ability to buy a house and your general take home income, with little hope of paying it off….. No one thought …. Let’s ensure these financial products are fully understood by these bunch of KIDS who have never even had a credit card or an overdraft in life. How can people understand misselling for car loans, Accident claims, loans sharks, but not this??

@drraja_ Same here in NZ. Never had leave rejected. Was allowed to take week off unpaid with notice (hadn’t accrued enough leave) to go back to the UK for a big life event. Not even comparable

A resident doctor who moved to Australia told me that their hospital offered him rota match with his wife who is also a doctor. Their duty hours, weekends & holidays can be matched without the stress of asking for swaps or if you have childcare responsibilities, they can have automatic adjustments accordingly. Just a small thing for improving wellbeing In UK, resident doctor may have to deal with additional stress of trying to adjust rota with partner & for childcare.

@ebtapper As a lowly ED resident, can I request a micro teach? Cause I have had a non-zero number of experiences of being told not to tap ascites in a ?SBP pt because of an abnormal INR…

The most likely result of recommending IV vitamin K for cirrhosis is that you have inadvertently taught the next generation of clinicians to misinterpret the INR It’s not what you intended. But it is what happens

@GrantlandComics @Ziggys_Duck

@Ziggys_Duck Yeah, I am sure it is just a pure coincidence that the base requirements 5 seasons and 60 episodes happens to be the exact number of seasons and episodes that the Greatest Show of All Time has. This Legacy Award was tailored made for that show.

Trying to think of a show that has 60 episodes, 5 seasons and sustained relevance. It’s right on the tip of my tongue.

I love this show so much #TheTraitors

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist. Kidnap the foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it.
