Married couple arguing with each other in the comments of MY Facebook post 🤦‍♀️ so cringe. Do I unfriend both of them or just her...

PSA to everyone with an Advent calendar. Advent started today. It's the first Sunday of Advent today. You can open your first door.

✨ A few years back I stood outside Wells Cathedral for a full day and photographed the impact of the light on the front facade. I was amazed at the outcome - at how a single entity could morph and change under the changing light. 🌅 #thread

Ugh dnf Turns out I am completely uninterested in western philosophy. Gave up about 60 pages. Gonna go back to my book about the history of nails, springs and magnets

Any tips or recommended recipes from slow cooker people? I want to make a vegetarian or quorn bolognaise or chilli (or both) that is as low prep as possible. So think pre chopped veggies (frozen, I guess). Or tinned everything.

🎶 thick and saucy That's how I like my slow cooker bolognaise

Remember last year when I said I was going to buy an Advent hoodie ...

Have a particularly annoying private tutoring client this year (can't fire him bc reasons) so I've just spent some money on music lessons for myself. If anyone else wants to do the same, turns out the billing platform he uses has a referral programme!! musicteachers.co.uk/invite/gjwp2...

I made a 10 minute Budget Update powerpoint for my Year 13 tutor group that I am happy to share All facts, no politics, and if you get a free login to ITV X you can show a clip of Martin Lewis from Thursday night www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/bh5q3...

Ok I get it but i definitely have a parasocial relationship with my calculator

I'm catering for a group holiday and someone can't eat chickpeas, lentils, or seeds including tomato seeds (eg tinned tomato's) so that's literally my entire menu of everything that is cheap and easy to cook for large groups. Messaged to ask for meal ideas and they gave me the PERFECT response

Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao

Someone (not a teacher) once complained to me about why schools had to have a boy and a girl head prefect, why couldn't it just be two non-gendered positions and I was like, obviously, then it would just be girls all the time www.instagram.com/reel/DRMNIEC...

There are no clothing machines. All garments are handmade. ALL of them. There is no T-shirt machine. Every $5 shirt I’ve ever purchased was sewn together by a human being who is an expert sewist. Just thought I’d mention that before tomorrow.

Keep mis-reading this as "school of biphobia"

Spotted this "cable knit" jumper which I adore and really want. It definitely doesn't come in my size so looks like I'm just gonna have to knit it myself. except it doesn't look like "knitting"? Is it some sort of piping/trim sewn onto the surface? www.disturbia.co.uk/products/cov...

Look I see your point but those are rental properties so it's your tenants who are paying your mortgages.

The radio etiquette and discipline of students running backstage and tech at the school musical tonight is SO much better than the teachers doing lunch duty day omg

So on brand @iop.org

Happy American Thanksgiving to all who celebrate 🥧

Felt like this when mortgage payments went up a few years ago - yes, it's horrible to now be paying an extra £200 a month, but that's been happening to renters year on year and there were no sadface articles on that, just "market forces" and "nobody has a right to live in a city"

If you want some good news this morning, I showed my three boys the PM doing the six/seven thing and now they have all stopped doing it.

We moved into our new build Sept 2024. We were told not to bring clocks from the old site. They are "going to" audit classrooms for clocks and buy us some in ... 2026?

I read this as ‘no PE’ which I can get on board with!

This is not the way, and @cnygren.bsky.social and I lay out in detail why it isn’t in this essay here. static1.squarespace.com/static/55577...

do you have any idea how much you have to piss somebody off to make them change their gauge

After all that and he didn't even show up

I don't get a lot of traction on my internet dating profile but this is the first message I've had in ages and it is 🤢 " A pleasure to read your profile, just like the perfect skirt - long enough to cover everything but short enough to be interesting.

This year I have printed some mathematical advent calendars. Turns out this was more expensive to do than I anticipated. I have a limited number available if any of you would like to buy one? £8 including postage and a couple of extra little surprises.More details: buymeacoffee.com/drbennison/e...

Oh well done

This book came out in 2019

Please hear me when I say that 1) these anti-medical woo birth movements have been a primary feeder into anti-vaxx eugenic movements 2) they pre-date the age of social media 3) they exist because we have not addressed medical sexism and specifically obstetric violence

And if you rent, your landlord has a project every weekend that they should do but just don't.
