Brill! Thankyou!

@awaisaftab.bsky.social hi Awais, I’m sure you posted a study ages ago that described the effect of antidepressants on the specific symptoms/signs in depression. I can’t seem to locate it again. Can you direct me to it? Thankyou!

I like it but referencing can be awkward.

Meanies!

We are now on BlueSky! 🥳

We're excited to be here, and engaging with people who care about psychiatry and mental health in the UK and around the world.

Join us on our Bluesky journey - we'd love you to be part of it.

I want to congratulate Elon Musk on his remarkable achievement. He's now surpassed Trump as the worst president in American history.

Two days ago this was a wry comment. Today it’s an understatement.

Upcoming Seminar! Join @mbarber.bsky.social as she explores the economics of drug production, global supply chains, and how #MarketStructures & power asymmetries affect accessibility, affordability, and distribution of #EssentialMedicines.

Haha, oh I see, sorry, I misread that!

I think you’re begging the question, but, what is the cultural issue?

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you.

Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.

Every week, I see a new study talking about this or that effect of GLP-1 receptor agonists like #ozempic. FINALLY, we have a study evaluating all the outcomes (good and bad) in one dataset. There are some... surprises. 🧵

Frontiers | The quantitative paradigm and the nature of the human mind. The replication crisis as an epistemological crisis of quantitative psychology in view of the ontic nature of the psyche Many suggestions for dealing with the so-called replication crisis in psychology revolve around the idea that better and more complex statistical-mathematica...

"From [the Popperian] perspective, the replication crisis is not a crisis at all but rather a process that increases our knowledge by demonstrating that certain theories are false or at least cannot be corroborated by repeated observations, increasing their probability of being false."

Excellent post, well worth a read.

It’s not exactly nature but I really enjoyed Manrique’s house when I visited. Coolest pad ever!

Is it a Meowndrian?

1050s! You’ve found the fountain of youth!

Are you telling me you *don’t* have a 32A 3-phase hookup in your kitchen?

UK’s number of unwanted dogs hits crisis point Opinion: revised regulation on dog breeding and ownership is urgently needed in Britain today

"Abandoned dogs overwhelm UK shelters as weak regulations fuel a welfare crisis...

Animal shelters and kennels are grappling with an increasingly desperate situation. Thousands of dogs... now face the harsh fate of abandonment, the uncertainty of rehoming or, in the most tragic cases, euthanasia."

By this metric I would have hit middle age at about 14… so err, yeah… it checks out.

Granny Weatherwax could 100% resist the power. Nanny Ogg on the other hand… perhaps not so much!

Haha, no! I’m looking forward to donning my festive bow tie for Christmas day though.

I would accept that over my current festive malaise.

Maggie Haberman, waking up one morning and casually collapsing both the world's only super power and most valuable company by publishing a NYT article that begins, "It makes sense that President Trump would hand the nation's reins to Musk, a vastly more popular and more successful businessman."

It’s a long listen but worth it. Last track is my all time favourite Christmas record.

That’s cool an all, but can you draw an i-mas tree?

One of my faves! Have you listened to ’silver and gold’ by Sufjan Stevens?
