Yesterday (5th June) was our first litter pick working alongside Better Brighter Orrell and Pemberton Community Association, 33 bags of litter collected #keeppembertontidy #pembertonlocal #takeyourlitterhome #pembertoncommunityassociation

@susie_dent happy new year (and congratulations on your Chester Honours :) ). We discovered impaired words as a new year's rabbit hole (acting chalantly) and thought perhaps you had some wonderful unpaired words you could share?

@mkn1ght @EX31Kev @fesshole Samesies!!!! I've never heard of anyone else doing this. Except I had to do it in descending order so the piles eventually evened out and petered down to one. It was sadly beautiful every time.

I used to have a spreadsheet documenting the number of Skittles of each colour in a pack. I'm married now and she'd found this hobby weird. I miss it.

@jessphillips My son's school is struggling with the systems and applications to move to online homework, including a phone app. He walks home, helping our work hours and getting exercise - a phone is useful. The problem isn't phones - it's integrating phones safely and effectively.

Not one school has ever mentioned this to me, I do run a homelessness surgery in one local school, one is in constant contact about their kitchen and dinner hall being condemned by RAC, others tell me they can't afford books so we did a fundraiser.

@APMPUK Happy to be here!

We would like to introduce Chris Colquitt as one of our judges for this year's APMP UK Annual Awards. We'll be announcing the shortlist in September and announcing our winners at the awards dinner on 17th October! #ProudToBeAPMP #BIDx #TBO2023 #APMPUKAwards

Super happy to support @PlanUK's #crimenotcompliment campaign to make public sexual harassment a crime - you can add your voice at plan-uk.org/act-for-girls/…

bit.ly/2023Running 2023's year of running for Plan International to help raise equality, reduce discrimination and climate change begins! That's a calf-busting 300km of competitive running this year! Help me to raise funds for Plan International along the way

Is raising funds for @PlanUK, training for the London Marathon. See my first race of 2023 - Skipton Half - at strava.com/activities/839… #strava

@Rochdale_Cowboy @jessphillips @brumshospice Yep - same on this! Needs a few days in the garage mid December to get it used to the heat, then comes inside for a week and then back out to the garden. Does the job it needs to do :)

I've just registered to have my Christmas tree collected and recycled by The Hospice Charity Partnership. Why not book your tree in? register.enthuse.com/ps/event/Treec… #Treecycling via @brumshospice

@psychmag The Mandela effect!!!! I love explaining (introducing people) to the Mandela effect!!! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_mem…

If you had two minutes to explain a psychological topic / phenomenon to a non-psychologist - something that might leave them thinking "Huh, I never knew that… interesting and useful" - what would it be?

@Maria_maqs Corporate training & 16+ education are a short stone's throw from your previous career. Or if you fancy something completely different, you'd have some good basis for Project Management or Business Analysis. Or follow your hobbies! I'd say speak to the folks at Hays education/rec

@JuliaHB1 A three second Google search throws up numerous peer-reviewed articles that show the effectiveness of masks in reducing COVID transmission. #ip=1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">google.com/search?q=role+…

Brits should wear face masks again to avoid new Covid lockdown, claims expert. Does this "expert" offer any evidence to back up his claim that face masks help protect against the spread of Covid? Because the evidence is very clear that they DON'T. mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/b…

@DerrenBrown If pills were in it, it would be a bottle. Chewing gum doesn't need its own varietal of container - so it's a bottle.

Twitterati! What word do we give this sort of container for chewing gum? It’s clearly not a pot or a can. Please help.

@fionafinnie1 @MettalBatt @SoVeryBritish Th'Office. T'Office chronicles their journeys Gaan t'th'office. The prequel, I suppose :p

@MettalBatt @SoVeryBritish Or T'Office (Northern branch)

Give an American TV show a Very British name.

@cazz_kay You've got this - books arriving was always my favourite part :) My graduation is in November.... There IS life after @OpenUniversity

@AlexAuerbachPhD No problem with the mediator model - assume it's from McEwan at researchgate.net/publication/27…. My issue here is that it's an integrative model - a quick search on ResearchGate and WoS turns up no results showing real-world testing. I'd argue against the term 'evidence-based'.

@ccolquitt Plenty of days has emerged to support this traditional “input-mediator-output” model… please share one you think is better if you want to participate :)

An evidence-based model of great teamwork in sport:

@KaylaChowShow Call it a fun run and throw in a free t-shirt at the end and I'll pay to be able to enter :D

@1980sRewind Of course! It was where the kids lived until they were 7 and could earn wages in the mills. Then they were allowed to live in the rafters until they were 18 - usually consumption had set in by then. At least - that was in Wigan. Funny reading all the other uses :p

Anyone remember what these were for?

@AlexAuerbachPhD @TMitrosilis Interested in your 60 mins - came across 'goal focussed coping' in a recent lut search but there's not much on it. Have you seen any literature? Considering this for a Master's project.

@TMitrosilis 20 mins meditation, 10 mins HRV training, 60 mins exercise done with some challenge! You?

15 minutes of daily mental fitness training can be the difference between average and excellence.
