If you’re disabled, please lean in to assistive devices.

Don’t let the pervasive ableism within society stop you.

Get that scooter, wheelchair, cane or other tool you might need.

Assistive devices are amazing & you should never apologize for using them!

Natasha has been very good on ME/CFS in the past, I wonder if she's aware of the Wessely connection?

It's a tad worse than edgy 70s banter, isn't it?

Yes why bother trying to prevent a pandemic spreading, we don't have thousands of years of human history to tell us exactly why that's important.

The NHS has gone insane - it has embraced Great Barrington Declaration level anti mask anti infection control sentiment on an institional basis.

This is the go-to position of public health and infection control leaders now, not because it's rational, not because of any basis in science, but 👉because it lets them off the hook👈.

They can rake in those enormous public salaries when times are easy, and when trouble hits, "that's not my job".
