This would fail as an essay if I were marking it. They foolishly & completely uncritically mix up "ethical" for "profitable", never once actually considering what ethical means. The love of money really is a root of evil. Https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/defence-pension-war-reeves-b2711054.html

I do love chatting to Uber drivers, they always have the most interesting lives. The one that just took me back from the vets does Uber because he has a livestock farm (mostly pigs) back in Tanzania... He's lived in Manchester for 10 years. Sad I couldn't chat more with him!

Fuck it, just wrote to the director of public health for Tameside (my local authority) who already commission testing and treatment services for STIs with SH24, who already run online/mail order prep in other parts of England... Don't ask don't get as my mother always taught me.

I've just started doing online mail order meds for my long term herpes suppression. Absolute piece of piss. Why the fuck we can't do this for prep is beyond me. It can't be that fucking complicated, and even if it is, we've had well over a decade to work it out.

Basically the exact same linguistic tropes as Trump then... I say cut them loose and see how they like not having access to French and British military bases to project their power. We should also rip out one of our five eyes.

Le langage, c'est là que tout le contrôle de la pensée commence. Relisez 1984 de George Orwell. «War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength, and 2 + 2 = 5».

I recently read a book with a "disaknowledgements" section, one of the best and bravest things I've ever read. We need to publicly call out people who bully and abuse people in academia.

UK academics - 2 questions (1) do you have annual funding targets? (application or award) (2) what happens if you fail to meet this targets? (DMs are open - would love to hear how this kind of stuff is 'incentivised' at your institution)

This dispute needs to be resolved - we cannot function as a union when the internal culture is so broken. It is in everybody’s interest to find a way through that restores trust & achieving this in a constructive way requires properly listening to staff voices uniteucu.wordpress.com/unite-voices/
