Today discovered that an owner with an Emotional Support Dog that’s RAW FED has been visiting patients on an oncology ward.
Ex-fucking-scuse me.
RAW FED. IMMUNO-SUPPRESSED PATIENTS?
I get you want to feed your dog whatever but do NOT put others at risk.

It doesn't take genius guess the Tory plan. Starve our NHS of money for 13 years until there are SEVEN MILLION people on waiting lists, then say "Hey, look, the NHS is failing. We need to privatise it."
Our NHS is not failing.
It is BEING FAILED by the Conservatives

Junior doctors start their careers on £29,384.
There is not a single Conservative MP who would be prepared to do their jobs for that salary.
If we’re not careful there won’t be a single junior doctor who is prepared to do so either.

"Bullying is a means for mediocre scientists to rise to the top. Some star academics reached their position because they are bullies, not in spite of it." - Excellent piece about bullying in academia (and really any other professional environment). nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

Did you know that even the friendliest of dogs can threaten our wildlife? 💔
The Wildlife Trusts and @DogsTrust are asking people to keep their pooches on leads. This will protect some of our most vulnerable species, like nesting birds. 🐦 wildlifetrusts.org/news/pet-…

Time in meetings has more than tripled since Feb 2020. Nearly a third of meetings are unnecessary—wasting $25M a year for every 1k people.
There are 4 reasons to meet: to decide, learn, bond, and do. If it doesn't serve one of those purposes, cancel it.
