January payday, last payday was pre-Christmas, scraped through without the family starving ... #barrymanilow

Asbestos dumping (again) 😡. Braunton.

I'm furious 😡😡😡. Now reported to Environmental Services at North Devon District Council 🏞️. Someone's lazyness and greed is now going to cost the entire community in disposal fees. Money we could be spending on homelessness. #northdevon #braunton

There's a reverence that nurses have for every of unit of blood we give. This isn't a drug made in a factory, this is a gift from one stranger to another. Every donation saves lives.

(full disclosure, sometimes vampires pinch them)

It is a scandal that corridor care is becoming normalised with thousands of patients left on trolleys for hours or even days on end.

We are seeing shocking and dangerous long waits in hospital corridors, putting patient lives at risk and leaving staff struggling to cope.

Taking the leap into Bluesky 👋

The sheer insanity that we have a senior American official openly working to overthrown the elected UK government while utterly destabilising a major UK political party (admittedly, one of the really s#it parties). Musk is acting like a toddler smashing toy dinosaurs together.

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square.
45² = 45 x 45 = 2025
Also,
9² x 5² = 2025
40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
My favourite?
1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025

Tens of millions of pounds wasted on overtaking lanes that are too short to actually use. A bridge to nowhere that pretends to be a castle and two half-hearted roundabouts. DCC councillors shouldn't be cutting ribbons and quaffing vol-au-vents, they should be issuing apologies. #northdevon

Life feels tough. Today I'm remembering that yes, I sometimes have to eat my dinner off of a bin, but at least I don't have to eat dinner out of a bin #nursestories #northdevon

The government needs to recoginise the difference between tax dodging billionaires and hard working multi-generational farming families.

Huge thanks to Father Christmas for taking time out of his hectic schedule to christmasify (yes, that's a word) the Braunton Parish Christmas tree 🎄
(thanks also to the elves on loan from Bluewave for their incredible work)

Day 3 on Caroline Thorpe ward. Florence is very disappointed with my Minion/Got colouring after I contraversally chose to make its glasses pink.

Trying to teach an AI to create dot-to-dot pictures. So far, managed triangles and stars. This is supposedly an Italian flag.
