I'm losing my mind here with PowerPoint. Does anyone know why PPT when saving, closing, and then opening again, butchers the quality and transparency of certain assets? There is no discernible pattern because all are imported the same from the same file format. All my assets are saved as .pdf 🧪

Hey, @ox.ac.uk, how about an honorary degree for this woman pilot with a PhD in aviation safety, whose employer hired a crooked psychiatrist to label her mentally ill after she blew the whistle on safety practices? She fought (for years) and won. www.seattletimes.com/business/boe...

Having attended young #diabetic who was really struggling. Finding out why they had literally given up. Nil management. I couldn't imagine being in their shoes. Yet I knew basics of what complications they face. Getting to know them a little, I wonder if #peer support like this would have helped.

Realist reviewers, here's a banger of a new paper by a South African group whose work I've only just become aware of. Good bit of philosophy to chew on if you've time. But also seeking to make RR more practical. Enjoy! #healthpolicy academic.oup.com/heapol/artic...
