I don't talk about it often...but I have struggled with major bouts of depression most of my life. I have sought help and it has saved my life. Don't be afraid or ashamed to ask for help if you are struggling. You deserve to be happy and there are GREAT professionals out there who can help. ❤️💪

The shutdown has left NOAA's network of cooperative research institutes locked out of federal labs and cut off from federal collaborators. In some cases, it's affecting research aimed at public safety—like toxic algae monitoring in the Great Lakes. My story 🔏 & quick 🧵 www.eenews.net/articles/shu...
Shutdown disrupts research into Great Lakes’ toxic algae
At risk is the ability for researchers to forecast dangerous blooms weeks in advance.

Employee ownership works.

When employees have a real stake in the businesses they're a part of, everyone gets to share the profits of hard work - not just those at the top. 🌱

For the love of all that is good in this world do NOT buy books from Amazon. Cancel your Amazon accounts.
Go to the Library (in person or online ebooks!) and support local bookstores instead. Please #BookSky don’t be ambivalent

Did you know BlueSky only has 20 employees?

We would like to say a huge THANK YOU to those 20 warriors (who are working 24/7 to keep up with the incredible growth) for giving us a space to share.

We escaped hell to be here.

Private equity is a horror story for the NHS – one fifth of budget goes to it.

Privatised services treat 10% of patients, 3% in 2011.

59,000 private contracts in the NHS.

30%-40% of money vanishes in profits, longer queues persist.

End privatisation.

Numerous studies have found private equity is associated with worse patient outcomes due to NHS privatisation - and 'preventable deaths'
