🔬 ADHD diagnoses soar in UK but adults over 65 remain overlooked, study finds
About 2.5million people in the UK have ADHD, NHS data shows. But researchers found cases are still under-diagnosed in older adults.
Toot filled with brand new information:
🎉 I have a new job! 🎉
In a completely surprising turn of events that no one since Friday could have predicted, I won at interviews and will no longer have to work with so many gammons!
I'll also be able to eat at a time that suits me and my bowel disease, be able to use the toilet whenever I want, and I'll be able to go home when I've finished my work.
It's a step down in pay but a huuuuuge step up in quality of life. Woooooo!
Good morning tooters. Super dooper sleep last night, all cosy & snug. Nearly 13c when I woke at around 6.30am & it will again reach 17c with just a slight chance of rain.
My daughter did end up coming out with me, we just didn’t have lunch out. Still we got all our jobs done & had some good chat. I found out they weren’t just getting more solar panels. There is also a battery installed now. I’m so rapt for them as with two youngsters the power bills were quite high. This will make a huge difference for them. A little jealous if I’m honest. I did offer to move in, but she just laughed at me 😂😬.
I’m off out again today as well, making the most of family visits. My niece & her husband are picking me up in a little while & we’re going to Beechworth for lunch. This is something they like to do when they come over from Perth & they always take me out at least once while here, which is lovely.
So that’s my day sorted. Hope you all have a lovely #Tuesday, stay warm out there 🌻. #Weather #Renewables #Family

The GOP wants to kill all government programs so corporations can replace them, gouge the public, and use those profits to fund GOP campaigns.
For everyone asking how close the Trump Phone is to the HTC U24 Pro, here’s the inside view.
The answer is: very.
The internals line up almost part for part, down to the board layout, cameras, shields, cables, and battery placement. This is what a rebrand looks like when the back cover comes off.

so… you mean fund recreation centres and out of school activities? NO
sports clubs and increasingly walkable cities? HAHA NO
playgrounds, green spaces, skate parks, libraries, any non-commercial spaces where kids don’t have to pay to exist? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

so how exactly does one give kids their childhood back? BAN SNAPCHAT TIKTOK AND INSTAGRAM

Tunnel vision!
Step inside the tunnels below our Paranal Observatory in #Chile. They connect the Unit Telescopes, which comprise the Very Large Telescope (VLT), to the control building where the VLT and its instruments are operated by observing teams.
And no worries: despite the eerie, sci-fi atmosphere, no drooling, man-eating aliens are roaming there, just astronomers and engineers 😉
