As a former Liberal Democrat, now Green, let's chat about how we make it easier for each other to replace Labour and defeat Reform.

I gave up trying to read this. What a thoughtless choice of colours
@drdon.bsky.social This is close to what we were talking about just this morning
Lookalike: Starmer and Trump / Lord Charles and Ray Alan

Haha, the Christmas Perineum -- love it!
@drdon.bsky.social recognise anyone here? ;-)
I wrote about systemic medical bias, chocolate medals and Eamonn Holmes
@martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com If I switch current account, will my state pension payments be automatically switxh across and be paid into the new account? #martinlewis
I loved this whole podcast!
But the sound levels (I listened via Dre Powerbeats) were all over the place, meaning I had to jump on the volume buttons every few seconds.
I feel bad for moaning now, sorry!

I had a lot of fun recording this. @yveshanoulle.bsky.social is a great interviewer.
Research poster for the "AutRad" project, with squares and circles in shades of purple and pink, and a photograph of a patient undergoing an MRI scan. The text on the poster reads: How do you care for autistic adults in diagnostic imaging and radiotherapy departments? We would like to hear from qualified radiographers who: • Are currently working in the UK • Have cared for an autistic patient in a diagnostic imaging or radiotherapy department in the last 12 months • Are happy to complete a short online questionnaire Survey Link: https://tinyurl.com/2z36bjnx This study has received approval from the School of Medical and Health Sciences REC at City St George's, University of London (ref: ETH2425-2255).

Just listened to part 1.
This podcast episode is an absolutely brilliant take-down of the ludicrous AQ "test", which assumes autistics are all equivalent to small boys who like trains.
Bravo!
It turns out that your website was being blocked by the parental controls on my ISP (Virginmedia). I've now whitelisted you and it's all okay.
Will do...
@pickmypostcode.bsky.social I'm getting HTTPS protocol errors from your website today -- any idea why?
Correct! No one in the restaurant, including waitresses, guessed that though. Much confusion ensued...
We made the same "mistake" as you. The precedence is all wrong.

For those of you who, like me, have a mathematics or programming background: how do you interpret the choices on offer here?
Manchester Airport is a sensory nightmare for autistic people. Even with so-called assisted travel we're both close to meltdown now due to all the lights and noise and random busyness.
Actually, numbers can be irrational, perfect, etc.
So maybe I can just shout "PI" or "TWENTY-EIGHT" when I'm in those moods...
Yes, the idea that we're endearingly cute is quite distressing.
Especially for those of us who make a living out of being as grumpy as fuck.
