I mean I know this will never happen, because she's a crank and she's not getting anywhere near power, but this is still a profoundly depressing world view. What are we without the arts, without creativity, without imagination?

Otto English @ottoenglish.bsky.social · 1d

Badenoch and Co see education only as a means to a massive income in some soul destroying career.

Devoid of imagination and the power of knowledge they view life entirely through the prism of the CV.

My advice always is to study what interests you and the rest will follow

There can be great value in a neurodivergent diagnosis. It's not just 'seeking a label' as many suggest. Extended version of our Latitude neurodiversity panel with @robinince.bsky.social, Prof @ginarippon.bsky.social & Dr Camilla Pang out now for Patreon subscribers. patreon.com/cosmicshambles
