Never have I ever heard of a theramin before. Down a happy rabbit hole figuring out how the heck they work 😁

The theramin is an extraordinary instrument.

Weird, and easily written off as an oddity, but when you find someone playing one well, in an arrangement like this....

Well, it is breathtaking isn't it?

Curious about the carbon footprint of individual items used in total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) and sevoflurane anaesthesia?

Here's some helpful info!

What are people’s thoughts/experience of re-using a partially full syringe with new lines attached for TIVA?

Interested in Uk and more global views!

(It’s a wider question about wasting resources really)

How many Drs who qualified the same time as me ever thought they’d see this in their lifetime?
Isn’t science (and aren’t experts) great?

Bah! I often commute from Ben Rhydding to Frizinghall. Did not think advance tickets were available on the line (never an option). Turns out buying the ticket either onto Bradford Forster Square, or alternatively, from Ilkley station, gives advance fares saving > 50%. Bloody Northern Rail!

Could this great idea finally be getting off the ground?!

Bradford council are one of those still spraying glyphosate liberally across kids parks and green spaces. This despite declaring a biodiversity emergency in 2023 & some strong campaigning, mainly by green councillors. Time to stop!!

Half of UK councils still use pesticides in public places, research finds
Pesticide-free movement has grown, but many local authorities still spray weedkiller linked to wildlife declines and cancer

Just had my say on Bradford’s new Climate Action plan @bradfordcouncil.bsky.social Some good stuff in there. The consultation is open until 12th August, took me about 20 mins to do (but I had a lot to say 😂) #bradford #ilkley

We don’t hear enough from psychiatrists in the assisted dying / suicide debate imo. Good piece by Prof @medaoh.bsky.social carefully deconstructing Kim Leadbeater’s Bill. Makes several very important points. t.co/jy6UorJIOZ

This week the Nuffield Council on Bioethics published two nationally representative surveys exploring public opinion on assisted dying / suicide.
