@ImmunoFever I have an illness that causes a build up of scar tissue all over my body - skin and organs... Interesting

There is a human tissue that builds itself up and breaks itself down every ~28 days using non-scarring wound healing and instead of studying that and learning everything we can about it we think it's gross and look for other less relevant models to understand wound healing.

@VersusArthritis @ITVTonight It would be interesting to get someone from Northern Ireland to talk about this. Worst waiting lists in the UK. If you have time to look, this link is quite informative. datavis.nisra.gov.uk/health/ni-outp…

Can you help? @ITVTonight are putting together a programme on joint pain and would like insight around #NHS waiting times from our community waiting for joint replacement surgery. Make sure your voice is heard and complete this short, anonymous survey:👇forms.office.com/pages/response…

@paulfrewDUP The new orthodoxy...

Intolerant Liberalism isn’t content unless there is a livelihood to destroy and a life to ruin. If a contrary view is unacceptable simply because it’s contrary then we very much are entering the territory of the darkest day. This is what history teaches us

@VersusArthritis Love my heated steering wheel and seats in the winter. Lucky not to need any other adaptations or adjustments just yet!

What helps you with driving when you have arthritis? It might be that you use an automatic car, aids or adaptations or use a Blue Badge. Or maybe you take regular breaks or ask people to help with longer journeys. Share your tips with us in the comments.

@DrIanCollen Also noticed how much pupils rely on seeing the whole face when they are learning an MFL - facemasks completely interfered with pupils picking up accurate pronunciation or ability to infer meaning when learning new vocabulary.

Here’s my secondary school classroom in 2013. For anyone setting up a languages classroom this week, I can confirm that rows facing the front are better for all concerned 😅.

@DrIanCollen I went from rows to groups when things were loosening up after Covid. Lasted 5 mins. I like to see the whites of their eyeballs. Clear communication between teacher and pupil when we can all see each other clearly. Can turn around for group and pair work.

@Chem2006 @secretHT1 Annoying how it takes up character spaces on Twitter. Doing the right thing can be costly.

@secretHT1 I still do two spaces. Even on twitter 😅 That’s the way I was taught in typing lessons at school!

One space after a full stop. Perfect. Two spaces. No thanks. Three spaces. WTF? Love reading reports.

@secretHT1 Mum trained as a secretary. Two spaces after a full stop and one after a comma... Just saying.

@KKNTeachLearn I had one of these desks in school. Used to forget and try to pull the seat in. There was even a sort of ink well in some of them.

June is Scleroderma awareness month. Ten years ago I would never have connected the reflux with the cold fingers. Grateful to be able to lead a happy, healthy life, for all the healthcare and support I receive... that said, I'd still like a cure... #scleroderma #raynauds #CREST

@amandajplatell @HackneyAbbott They were packed onto trains instead.

Diane Abbott says Jews only suffered prejudice not real racism as they never had to sit at the back of the bus like black people. The six million Jews Hitler exterminated never got the chance to get on a bus. Labour must sack @HackneyAbbott

@FloraSCooper @Ofstednews @Headteacherchat Where are the unions on this?

I've just had the call. I've refused entry. This is an interesting phone call. Doing this for everyone for our school staff everywhere! @Ofstednews @Headteacherchat #ShineOn #BurnBrighter

@teacherhead The trailer was enough for me. Read a review and it sang its praises but I still don't think I could sit through it. I might prefer True Spirit but it was slated - possibly for being too twee?

This film.. isn’t fun. Grimly stressful from start to finish.. just no! Do not do this people.

@TeacherBusy I'll never know how I managed to develop a love of reading without dressing up as my favourite characters...

Here’s a mad idea…what if instead of dressing kids up for World Book Day we used the money from a costume to instead…buy books for them to read? 🤔

@tombennett71 I heard something about how Tiktok seems to encourage positive behaviour in China. Is this true?

Is there any chance TikTok can get videos of students all doing their hardest in lessons to trend?

@TeacherBusy I would love 8 hours over two nights - but I feel your pain...

Insomniacs, talk to me about what works for you. I’ve had approximately 8 hours sleep across two nights. I have to sleep tonight! What helps?

@NickyCruzOrg Hello from Bangor, Northern Ireland. We are a class of 12 and 13 year olds. We have been learning about your story & were very inspired by your life journey & the work you continue to do. Many thanks. From class 9A3.

@GiftedTawk The library and piano room

Teachers: Fill in the blank. “I would never have survived high school if it weren’t for ______.” *For me, it was the art room. Shout out to all teachers who create safe havens for those who feel different.

@TheRealJamieKay restraint

Anything missing?
