Trans women are women.
I just donated to this @goodlawproject.bluesky.social fundraiser, and if you’re not a fan of the far right, I’d say you should too! Fight back against this vile collection of clowns… 🤡 goodlawproject.org/crowdfunder/...

It’s a gorgeous morning in Devon! Happy weekend everyone! 🌅 #skywatch
Happy International Women’s Day.
I’m fortunate to have brilliant women in my life as friends and colleagues along with male allies prepared to stand up and be counted.
Keep on keeping on.

Worth signing, but be ready for the government to write some science denial bs and say "Cass" 15x

A very good afternoon from #sunny Tavistock! ☀️
We have a regular community dental list for which we do full general anaesthetics! 🦷 Commoner than you might think! ☺️

This is your reminder to get a library card. They have so many services and basically all of them are free.
One of my favourite poems.
screenshot of a quote that reads: “The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles. But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet. This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.” Terry Pratchett, Men at Arms
I love how this little quote from an amazing, but truly underrated author of satire gets such a huge amount of love, even from people that never heard of Terry Pratchett.
Treatment shouldn’t be started if it won’t change the outcome for the patient; primum non nocere. CPR is traumatic, undignified and, yes, miraculous in certain cases, but only where appropriate support is then available. This isn’t the thing to get angry about; the lack of ICU capacity is. (3/3)
Even if we successfully ‘bring you back’, we have to treat the underlying condition and give you post-ROSC care on an ICU. Which we couldn’t, because the ICUs were overwhelmed with COVID and (to a greater or lesser extent) unable to admit more patients. 🛌 (2/3)

Worth mentioning that in the UK these are a Doctor’s decision; you cannot demand CPR and your consent is not required to apply a DNACPR. In general if you get to this point the likelihood of success is very low and of survivors the likelihood of disability is high. (1/3)

Also fentanyl works really well (as does propofol). 😅 #regionalist

It’s amazing how many folks who use TIVA don’t know this.
I was told this by a Boss once, and never looked back.
I never read the paper though 🤦🏽♂️. Time to change that!

Insightful piece from @theguardian.com this morning about how the UK and EU could leverage events to their, and Ukraine’s, advantage in the war. 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🇺🇸

An infrared photo of a rainbow: a strange, ghostly-looking rainbow in a mostly black and white photo, with a faintly red outer edge and a cyan inner edge, and what look like a few even fainter ‘echo’ bows inside
A regular visible-light pic of a rainbow
An ultraviolet picture of a rainbow: a dark, foreboding landscape with a deep purple stripe emanating from it, and a grey stripe inside
A composite of the three preceding photos, showing that the infrared bow is ‘outside’ the visible light rainbow, and the ultraviolet bow ‘inside’
There’s more to rainbows than the human eye can see: here’s how a rainbow extends into the infrared and ultraviolet.
Photos:
1. Infrared
2. Visible (obviously)
3. Ultraviolet, and
4. A composite showing how UV is beyond the violet in a rainbow, and IR beyond the red end.
