Whatever your personal beliefs on Assisted Dying, we should all be able to agree on 2 fundamentals: No means no. If a patient doesn’t want it, end of discussion. It should never be offered in lieu of care or social supports. If it is, it’s not compassion. It’s eugenics 🧵

1971 Doomwatch episode currently on Talking Pictures TV is about regulations, business & economics. A factory developing new metal needs investment to prevent poisonous fumes leaking across town. Is it worth it? Why not leave country & avoid regulation? Is poisoning a city but keeping jobs better?

Amazon Prime Video adverts are both specific and weird for me. I have no aircraft and no need for ground maintenance services and yet I get adverts for AOG (aircraft on ground) partners. Is this because I watched Top Gun Maverick?

One piece of ‘stretchy noodles in workshops’ advice: buy thicker ones if you’re working with people who may be unruly. The thinner the noodle the more it can be used to hold, stretch, let go and flick at another person. Thicker ones just stop.

Farage raising Death Penalty as issue (but saying he’s against it). This is just the Wedge Issue politics he’s succeeded with before. Make something that most people do not care about into something where you are demanded to be intensively right or wrong. Make a hard wall between people 1/2
