Loving Idris Elba in this Netflix documentary 🤯

Mortgage up, Utilities Up, Council Tax Up, Water Up, Fuel Up £1.82, Insurance Up, Food Up. Inflation is a devastating thing, especially when wages don't keep pace. A massive challenge for all families/ individuals and it's going to get harder.

A remarkable 19th-century tunnel book that brings the Rhine Valley to life, masterfully creating an illusion of three-dimensional depth and vast spatial distance

Enable schools to do the right thing and don't penalise them with performance tables and accountability that punishes them for doing so. The ways are often clear, but the consequences for doing so significant. Doing the right thing isn't rewarded in education currently.

@alone_thought_ Yup

@sneminaj Yup

Unfortunately, you can deny your childhood trauma all you want, but your romantic life will reveal the truth every time.

The next @FrankStanChat includes a chat with a colleague who submitted FOI request to the DfE on the criteria used to trigger a congratulatory letter from SofS on exam results. It's deeply troubling. Will be posting soon.

Detachment is crazy because you'll still care. you'll still remember their birthday. you'll still hope they're okay. you just stop showing it and that's okay

@BloodNelsons @Favwontmiss God, no! Not cold at all! 🫡

@HappyHead74 @Favwontmiss I know it's sounding cold, but it's my coping mechanism

@BloodNelsons @Favwontmiss It’s definitely a strategy.

@HappyHead74 @Favwontmiss Compartmentalisation works for me. Put it in a strong box, lock it then hide the key.

@Itsletters_ Yes 🤦🏼‍♀️
