Last Notes npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I've considered growing these. Are they tasty? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss And the public and third sectors are experiencing the same headwinds. People aren't filling vacancies, let alone creating new ones. It's awful out there npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss And not just in the USA (though the USA may be the most crackers example) npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss How many headlines of 'Government agrees £1bn cut to NHS to appease Trump' will run, do you reckon? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I was imagining something like the GMC. It's an interesting idea but I won't hold my breath for something tha will actually be robust npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I want to move someone from Windows to a Linux distro. He's not techy at all so wants something that will look familiar and work. Compatibility paramount, especially for web and an Office replacement. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss 1989 and Tomorrow's World are talking about how the house of 2020 will be focused on reducing fossil fuel use. This was a relatively mainstream programme. People knew what needed to be done and our leaders failed us (and we failed ourselves). npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Or a division between home-havers who can't afford any treats because of outrageous housing-related costs inc. maintaining old and crumbling stock and treat-havers who have enough disposable income to spend on those but not enough to stretch to home ownership given said outrageous costs. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I think I'd like to grow a fig tree. Any suggestions (variety, pot and size thereof vs lined/paved hole, AOB) for Northern England? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I struggle to see the angle on this. Is it the economic activity they're worried about losing from the local Greggs or something? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss The fact that there's a cardinal direction (shorter distance across the landmass than N to S no less) you sort can't really travel in the country is absurd npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Hopefully just me fretting but after Cass and all the hateful nonsense about over-diagnosis among politicians as well as a worrying number in the NHS, I don't have much confidence npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I think it will go beyond that to raising official barriers to diagnosis for ND conditions at least npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I chose 13 years based on the Syrian civil war but a conflict or regime could last longer. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss If it takes, say, 13 years for that to happen, you could well have refugees who have children born in the UK, who have only known life here. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss ADHD is a neuro-developmental disorder, not a mental health difficulty. But it has the same lack of parity of esteem! npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I doubt how much this will but through especially to influence voting in future. If someone could find 50 voters who knew about this issue and the BS workaround in the advertised role, with more than half of them annoyed by the cynical solution, I'd be flabbergasted. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss What's your favourite cottage garden plant? Even better if you say what you love about it! npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Do you have a GB-based spring bulb (autumn-planted) source you would recommend? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I know what we make feels like in terms of standard of living. What most of the country thinks of as well-off isn't anymore. My wage isn't great so much as the average is an insult to human dignity. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I think California quail are some of the most charming birds. Glad they're up on the mountain to keep you company npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Given all we are learning about the potential post-acute sequelae of various viral infections including immune dysregulation, I think avoiding viral diseases where possible is in keeping with the precautionary principle. NHS access to the vax enables this. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Whoops, doomerism unintentional! My complaint is with repeated messaging about how bad things are in the same ways/outlets but expecting a different result. Decades of that approach have brought us here. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Sounding the alarm in the ways that have been tried is not enough, at least on its own. People are willing to opine about their data, or feelings about data, but comparatively little is being done to create the revolutionary systemic change that is necessary for survival npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss As you rightly suss, genetic predisposition is about probability at a population level and not a definitive prediction for you personally, but always nicer to have a negative finding on that sort of thing. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I disagree that the up-stream issue is social care. That's just another down-stream presentation of need, if perhaps not so far down as the emergency department. Shifting need around the health and care system isn't the solution. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss How are they so bad at this? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Then they'll turn around and complain that the costs of diet-related ill health are bankrupting the NHS like they didn't have the solution to this handed to them decades ago by public health experts npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss But having seen how older people who are asset rich and cash poor get left (even willing relatives may not have funds to retrofit or repair Gran's house) or become prey to weird equity release schemes, a state-run option that could ensure health, safe ageing in places and also help transfer assets more equitably by moving private housing into public ownership might be useful npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I would love to hear an expert response to my off-the-cuff idea this morning in response to the above. Namely, a national programme to improve properties belonging to poorer owner-occupiers with something like the equivalent value from any future sale going back into the scheme. If equal to or exceeding the value of the property, maybe it could become council housing at the point the owner-occupier vacates (e.g. care home or death). npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I cannot fathom why his opinion is worth publishing or heeding npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss "Ministers resist calls to block Musk donations to Farage’s Reform UK npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss An aside: I'd like the media to stop calling them sewage 'spills'. They aren't little accidents like spilling a bit of tea on a carpet. They're 19 hours of deliberately allowing raw sewage into waterways npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Restriction to citizens only will further exclude migrants who pay tax here and are subject to laws but have no way to influence those laws because we're not allowed to vote. Even those of us with permanent residency aren't allowed to vote. I'd not like to see our political participation restricted further npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Thanks for clarifying. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Oof, what is a top-tier career by Burn-Murdoch's reckoning? Is everyone working outside of London mediocre? Just because folk are paid less elsewhere doesn't mean their work is lesser but that's how the phrasing makes it sound npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I am aware of the supposed paradox and need for housing. Planning isn't sought for housing in the abstract, though. People object to specific developments. Missing nuance makes it easy to label people as NIMBYs rather than dig into the deeper issues. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss It's infuriating. If there's one matter on which local decision-making is obviously the right place for power to rest, it must be planning. It's local communities who are affected and it's their needs that will or won't be met by the proposed developments. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Share link to article: https://on.ft.com/3DezFdG npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss The piece talks about the % of male abuse victims then suggests all their abusers are women but doesn't give stats for this, and gives stats on % of physically violent women (but not their victim's gender). This heteronormative framing misses LGBTQ relationships, which is definitely as aspect of simplification of narratives on DV npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Patriarchy and toxic masculinity also harm men (and non-binary folks). The fact of men experiencing DV doesn't negate any role of patriarchy in that violence. Neither does it have to be the exclusive driver of such violence to be a valid one npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Oh no. I hope she feels better soon npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I'm begging you all to wash your hands, wear a mask, and stay home if you're poorly wherever possible. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Even my Tory FiL thinks the Haigh story is a bizarre overreaction to a total non-issue. It seems to have been an extremely trivial matter over which police went crackers, and a sudden storm over a known and spent conviction. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss It isn't always reliable but it's a measure already used across palliative and end-of-life care (and thus in social care, benefits, and all sorts). npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Wasn't aware farmers were a social class. Also, if it's a class war against someone other than the working class (as you noted, no one mentions *those* class wars), then are those papers accepting farmers aren't working-class? Or at least not the ones whinging about this? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss PH working hard on this building a concept and narrative around commercial determinants of health, while groups that cut their teeth fighting tobacco are now looking at obesity and Big Food. We'll line up the pieces, but it required government putting them in play. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I saw a butterfly fluttering around yesterday afternoon (11 November). Various bees were out, too. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss God, it's always 'poor kid are obviously not academic. do nothing to help them understand what education might be like and why it might be desirable, just shunt them into trades'. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I look forward to their 'Putin: photos of a diamond geezer' feature soon npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Polio isn't gone. Look at Gaza. No one is safe until everyone is safe. Just eliminating polio cases in rich countries by using IPV isn't enough. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I was stunned when I learned that some UK employers have retirement ages that are essentially compulsory npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Correlation isn't causation. There's a real an unanswered question about whether any causal relationship exists between those two variables and, if so, in which direction (i.e. are we seeing that anxious, depressed people spend more time on social media rather than the other way round) npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Bingo. The whole thing looks, walk, and quacks like a scam. I also think it's unethical for me to extract wealth from the economy just because I might have amassed a bit of money. The idea of rewarding rich people for being rich makes me sick. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss The UK is a low-wage economy compared to similar countries. There's a lot of talk of how expensive things are but I'd argue wages are actually too low. The minimum wage should double and the average income should probably be about 30% higher. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I would rather see any of them leave under a better tax system than keep them here under the current farce npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss That's if they don't take the plot away from us because we've been so slow in clearing it! npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Absolutely. I am contemplating getting on the site mgmt group to try and at least tackle new badness npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I'm appalled at the state allotment plots are allowed to reach, and especially in terms of the plastic and other toxic pollution on them. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Makers of the Fedi, is is actually that difficult to make curtains for a sewing beginner? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss But no politician likely to announce reallocation of health funding that means reductions to NHS services to fund PH prevention work that could take, say, two or three parliamentary terms to demonstrate effectiveness. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss The NHS is not at its core a prevention service. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss He looks sweet but a bit lost. How fortunate that you found him and he can learn to be at home now npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss But the weird quasi-religious devotion to the idol of SMEs is just one reason she probably won't go this route. And there's probably not enough HMRC staff to tackle the avoidance npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss For plants to add/consider: npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss How exciting! May I suggest a pollinator-friendly lawn, something that doesn't get taller than roughly 30 cm and can take mowing? Not sure of your soil and sun. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss He's gorgeous. Is he a particular breed? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Did you see any children in lobster suits? There were advertisements for the Hepworth on every train platform we visited today and they all featured a child in a red lobster suit complete with little black eyes on stalks npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Our grouse is a very, very, very fine grouse npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss There is a grouse in New Orleans npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss As the article says, incidence (new diagnoses) appears to be stabilising or tailing off. And the prevalence is still small even if the relative increase is high. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I am begging people to make evidence-based policy. There's no evidence longer sentences reduce crime. There's no evidence for punitive prison. There may be for some services provided in prison but those could be delivered another way. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss That would be great but we don't have access to leaves or local woodchips so there's not much of an alternative for adding browns to compost. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss We're in that 10% and I've resigned myself to dying early and in bad conditions without children to advocate for me, and in the accelerating climate breakdown. I don't expect anything in terms of social care to be available by the time I'm of an age. npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss My husband's employer has advised their staff to leave bang-on five today and go straight home for their safety. This fascist violence is out of control
