The President of the United States has announced, with obvious pride, that he phoned Vladimir Putin and asked him for fuel. He calls it a great success. It is the richest country on earth going cap in hand to the man who bombs Ukrainian cities every night, because diesel became expensive before an election. For four years Europe paid more for its energy, housed millions of refugees and emptied its arsenals so that Putin would not be rewarded. Washington has now concluded that all of it matters less than a cheaper tank for a truck in Ohio, and has told Ukraine to stop hitting the refineries that pay for the war. This used to be the country others measured themselves against. Its remaining admirers are in Moscow and Pyongyang, and it has become exactly the kind of shithole it used to sneer at.

Today is Michaelmas Day - a day of “uncanny power” - when, according to Welsh folklore: “the Cistfaens, or warriors’ graves... were illuminated by spectral lights, and it was very unlucky to walk near those places for the ghosts of ancient warriors were engaged in deadly fray.”

"We need to ask why so many patients have been abandoned, why discredited and dangerous treatments continue to be prescribed and why ignorance and neglect still dominate.. there has seldom been a stronger case for a public inquiry." #pwme #me theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Abandoned, dismissed and gaslighted: there is no excuse for the way ME sufferers have been betrayed...

Changes in guidance and science seem to have little impact on millions of devastated lives. It’s a social crisis playing out behind closed doors, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

If you have the extreme misfortune of becoming chronically ill, then know that ‘online’ can be one of the very few places empathy and understanding exist. It isn’t simply sharing ‘identity’; it’s providing a basic support network that doesn’t exist elsewhere.

Chronic illness rips everything from a person that is normally identity-your occupation, hobbies, values and even the simplest acts of self-expression. Framing chronic illness as an ‘identity’ is not only deeply callous, it is fundamentally backwards. #ChronicIllness

What is often overlooked is how the tobacco industry secretly funded psychosomatic researchers to hype the idea of a 'cancer-prone personality.' Not just Hans Eysenck but also Kissen, Bahnson, Blohmke, Baltrusch and others. We wrote about it here: mecfsscience.org/the-dark-ps…

The dark psychosomatic history of cancer part III - ME/CFS Science

This blog post dissects the Hans Eysenck affair and reveals how psychosomatic research on cancer was funded by the tobacco industry.

If doubt about ME/CFS can be established, and if doubt is the cost-saver/profit-driver in the system, then doubt becomes the default standard operating procedure. If you think this sounds like a conspiracy, read Merchants of Doubt, about how doubt was manufactured around tobacco and climate change to protect powerful interests.

10 years today, after a David vs Goliath FOI legal battle that damaged Alem Mathees, White et al were forced to release data from PACETrial that cost UK taxpayers £5M showing graded exercise therapy & CBT didn’t lead to an increased recovery rate for CFS. Please remind the world
