I’ve had lots of messages about my Guardian article, in which I argued we should stop universal mental health lessons in schools. The messages have fallen into three categories, and I’m reflecting on this here because I think it exposes something interesting in the field (and research in general) 🧵

If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until now to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.

This is the freight train almost no one has noticed coming down the tracks. Wage stagnation, expensive housing, smaller private pensions are going to be a terrible combination.

Important thread about how the collapse of gatekeeping institutions has ripped the threads of factuality that otherwise bind society to objective reality. In a previous era, Hannah Arendt documented how the collapse of institutions was key to the Fascist project. What’s old is new again.

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

So as far as I can see on the website, BBC hasn’t reported on Ukraine war in 3 days. This serves the interests of only one person.

Perfectly exemplified. Trump does headlines. The chaos is for the headlines.

One reason is that she was one of the most targeted western leaders for Russian propaganda, much of which was highly personal and misogynistic. NZ was bombarded with propaganda shortly after Banks and Wigmore announced that they were visiting to ‘make mischief’

Here’s the thing about #Juneteenth: It is the only Holiday recognizing that freedom and democracy take ongoing effort and dedication. Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation occurred more than two years before being enforced in Texas. A good lesson in these difficult times.

#UKEd #EduSky The opening chapter is the best I've read on the topic. At 16 I volunteered at an Adult Training Centre & kept that experience alive with me ever since. It led me to think that without a vision of, & for, adults with learning disabilities, educational aims remain shallow.

Striking how much media normalises Trump’s erratic behaviour: ‘pondering’ strikes; ’mulling’ next steps, etc. I guess ‘Trump tries to grab headlines by creating chaos and we comply’ doesn’t work so well as a sub-heading.

The AI industry is destructive in almost every respect. The idea that utopia consists of outsourcing your brainpower while terrible damage is inflicted on the environment, and paying for it, is possibly the most dystopian future I’ve read about - but this is in the morning paper, not a novel.
