I love writing on a Saturday morning when I’m tucked up in bed with my laptop on my duvet and a cup of tea by my side.

Thanks! Looking forward to hearing you talk this afternoon at #BreakCon25 on the drug policy landscape.
Stigma being discussed at #BreakCon25, take aways:

- Different groups are perceived differently when doing the same thing
- Stigma is a product of power
- People are inclined to use "othering" to retain their own social status (i.e I'm not as bad as...)

🙏 Thanks @hannahfarrimond.bsky.social

A completely compelling talk on the right, billionaires and their psychedelic vision. So scary, it's best viewed with the lights on.

Smoking kills.

It’s a message most people will have heard. But just how much does smoking affect life expectancy?

In a new editorial, we estimate that on average, each cigarette steals approximately 20 minutes of life.
