Clinical Psychologist tried to rush an assessment with me for some more help.Put under pressure I disclosed a list of trauma including questions about abuse then he cannot see me because has seen me before and anyway he is maybe being made to assess people for junior people to see now.

Not that this will surprise anyone in the sector who is sentient, but the universities recruiting the highest proportion of disadvantaged students and the list of universities facing major financial crises, closing programmes and shedding staff displays rather a lot of overlap. Essential reading.

New piece for @nsunnews.bsky.social on Uta Frith and the worrying trend of voyeurism within autism research that has endured longer than any sappy Instagram infographic on burnout. Wrote this for the only reason I ever write anything: I felt like I had to.

Uta Frith confirms my longstanding grudge against psychology: there’s a problem with power and permission

When the power shifts to a community owning the language, there is profound discomfort in medical spaces and beyond.

More than a decade after Imprisonment for Public Protection was abolished, 2,000 people remain under its shadow. Dr Sarah Markham makes the case for a resentencing review for every remaining IPP prisoner. Read here: www.centreformentalhealth.org.uk/resolving-an... #IPP #CriminalJustice #PrisonReform

More than a decade after the IPP sentence was abolished, around 2,000 people continue to live under its shadow. Some remain imprisoned years beyond the minimum term imposed by the courts, while others have been released but remain subject to indefinite licence conditions... This uncertainty is not simply frustrating; it can be psychologically damaging.

I’ve seen a few people commenting today that the idea of separating the MMR vaccine into three separate shots might be a good strategy to get anti-vax parents to vaccinate. Absolutely not. Here’s why. First, countering anti-vax misinformation is like playing whack a mole. You bat down one lie…

Hi, this is something that actually happened to me because I am a real life Mr Bean I guess

Page one of a 4 panel comic. First panel: The artist is exercising with a ring fit, jogging in place, a fan stationed on coffee table behind them. An empty soda can rests on the coffee table on it's side. Panel Two: we see the wind from the fan has began to roll the empty soda can towards the edge of the table. Panel three: The fan blows the soda can onto the floor. Panel four: the soda can rolls underneath the artists raised foot as they jog in place.

Page two, a three panel comic. Panel one: a large action panel where the artist is accidentally SLAMMING their foot down onto the soda can and screaming loudly in fear, shock and surprise because the crunch sound and sensation is so loud. The ring fit controller goes flying. Panel two: The artist has collapsed on the floor, their limbs drawn wavy, they are breathing heavy, eyes wide, trying to catch their breath. The crumpled can sits next to them on the floor. Panel three: The artist is now clutching their chest, still breathing heavy, wide eyes staring down at the crumpled can in disbelief.
