At the same time, it's extremely hard to access vaccines for under 12s. If you think this is wrong, please sign and share

Healthy children who turned 5 on or before 31 August 2022 are not able to access vaccines and I would like this changed urgently to enable parents to decide what is best for their families. All...
March 2023 was the second worst month for child deaths in the last 12 months, and no one in the UK gives a shit. *seven* more children dead. You won't see that on the news.

I’m a Professor of Law and I have ADHD. I waited 6 yrs for a diagnosis on the NHS. My only regret is I didn’t go private and get a diagnosis earlier. The BBC panorama is dangerous as it may deter people from getting a diagnosis. Sharing this to remove the stigma around #ADHD.

@ADHD_Alien One of the main struggles to me has been the fact that a lot of identity is based on the stuff you do. Me having a strict difficulty to DO things generates this sort of dichotomy between my intentions and actions and so I feel I'm never living up to myself /lose sense of who i am

Doing the bare minimum when you’re depressed is valid. Doing the bare minimum when you’re in a pain flare is valid. Doing the bare minimum when chronic fatigue is kicking your ass is valid. Letting your body rest at the expense of your to-do list is NOT slacking off.

Many brag about the cold like symptoms of Covid during the acute phase: but Covid is like HIV in the way it infects the immune system directly and kills depletes viral immune cells: HIV also starts with cold symptoms and then for 8-10 years you have no symptoms:

For me, these are some of the most exciting stories of rewilding in Britain in 2022. Britain ranks among the most nature-depleted countries in the world. We’ve lost so much. That’s why the rewilding movement is so vital. If we can rewild in Britain, we can rewild anywhere. /1

Canar ‘faoileagan a’ chladaich againn fhèin’ ri daoine aig a bheil freumhan nar coimhearsnachd fhèin agus nach tèid ro fhad air falbh on dachaigh aca. Bha fios aig daoine o shean nach dèan faoileagan imrich cho tric ri eòin-mhara eile. #Nà darAlba

One of my favourite things in the world is that we - well, the US - took these ex-military test pilots, the most square-jawed of a square-jawed people, the most solid reliable humans ever made, sent them to space, and they all turned into what they would've considered hippies.
