I don’t have to stay awake to watch any clock tick down. My PS5 is in rest mode and the game will download onto it while I’m asleep. I can’t play it until the 19th anyway.
I’m not making myself physically uncomfortable for a video game. Y’all need to chill and touch grass.
Just a few more hours until I can pre-load GTA 6 (UK).
I thought long and hard about doing the New Zealand trick (PS5), but I just know that I'd end up regretting it.
Watching the clock tick down to midnight on November 19th is an experience that I will cherish forever :)

There’s a part of the NHS that almost nobody in the NHS has heard of. The CMO called it “critical, but increasingly fragile”.
While everyone talks about neighbourhoods and care closer to home, this is what closer to home already looks like. And it’s closing. 🧵
ALT A closed village dispensary with its shutter down and the NHS sign hanging off, an elderly woman standing outside.
Patient’s hx: 35yo F. 120kg with unilateral patellar instability, first dx 4 years ago.
Patient: I’m pretty sure I have hEDS
Me, internally: You may be right but I’m sure it would be very helpful if you lost a bit of weight first before coming to that conclusion.

This is why the NHS is wasteful. I’ve referred a patient on the non-specific site 2WW pathway due to progressive weight loss but somehow they’ve also had a screening low-dose CT for lung cancer which found a growing lesion and obviously another referral to the lung 2WW. 1/x
Actually, I lie, this patient has had two CT thoraxes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Because CXR finding (which I had sent as part of my original referral) needed further investigation with a CT and lung cancer screening.
But the screening team knew he already had a CT thorax 🤦🏻♂️
Jason’s dog in GTA 6 is apparently named Rocco.
Looks like it’s from the same helicopter mission from the launch trailer. and it’s not clear if that’s a memory or the current timeline. 🤔
The fidelity on these shots though. Bang on.

Now, these are words that embody Christian values. I’m not sure who this man is, but if his words reflect his actions, he is what Christ wants us to be, none of us being perfect. The orange man certainly is not.

Very courageous indeed. Especially after so many years of untold suffering.
Must have taken such bravery to come out at such a time as when he is POTUS, especially as it would have been much easier when he was just Trump the sleazy businessman. Bravo. 👏🏼
Dr. Larissa Portnoff courageously shares her story of Trump allegedly targeting her as a child: “Donald Trump repeatedly targeted me, and sexually exploited me… It was very clear that he knew what he was doing”

Not negating the experience of survivors, but it’s interesting how the timing of release of sexual assault related statements somehow coincides with periods of significant political change.
It would be burying our heads in the sand to pretend that it is simply serendipitous.

No one’s forcing anyone to use ozempic. Shortcuts always have consequences.
And there’s always someone on the other end who is going to cash out on the consequences.
You can only blame yourself.
🚨 OZEMPIC FACE EXPOSED… FIRST THEY SELL YOU THE DRUG, THEN THEY SELL THE FIX
First, they sell you the weight loss drug.
Now, the beauty industry wants to sell you the fix.
And people are connecting the dots.
The phenomenon known as "Ozempic face" has left some people dealing with hollow cheeks, sagging skin, and an aged appearance following rapid weight loss.
Now L'Oréal is selling skincare products designed to complement GLP-1 treatments.
And the timing has people raising eyebrows.
Meanwhile, lawsuits alleging serious complications, including digestive injuries and vision problems, are adding to concerns about these medications.
People see a disturbing business opportunity: one industry sells the weight loss, while another sells treatments for the aftermath.
Are we seriously supposed to believe it’s a coincidence that they sell you the weight loss drug, then make billions selling you the fix for your face?
