Yep, I’ve got those.

ha! ;)

I agree. I don’t think we do either, which is partly why I wanted to replace this one (which is currently proposed for this project). The people I’m working with want a nice picture, but I’m leaning towards us just providing a couple of sentences on some of the current hypotheses, to show that...

Hi brains trust! I’m looking for a graphic that presents a possible biomedical model of ME/CFS for a project I’m working on. I’ve got this one, from a Maes & Twisk article in 2010, but ideally I’d like something more recent and which isn’t framed as biopsychosocial. Any thoughts? Source for...

Not sure if these have been posted here already, but the MJA has been promoting this review. They published this article in their Insight Plus newsletter (it’s possible to comment on this article, if anyone is so inclined. Both Brett Lidbury and Paul Fisher left comments a couple of weeks...

I don’t read this as changing his tune. It’s still primarily focussed on fatigue, which is what he does (he’s acknowledged PEM, which is something. He almost always refers to “post-exertional fatigue” instead). He follows Central Sensitisation model of ME/CFS and has for quite some time now (and...

What’s the hashtag for the conference? @Andy

Sorry, I’ve been AFK. I assume it’s residential address. I haven’t seen anything which specifies? Perhaps someone else will know more. This page on EU petitions (both to start one and to sign one) doesn’t specify, it just says address...

Thanks, Scott!

Yes, we’re still waiting to hear who will write the actual review. This is a good start though.

This is such good news! Even if the intention with having the independent advisory group was for it to be tokenistic, that would be really difficult with Hilda leading it. And the fact that they appointed Hilda, knowing full well who is and how she’s likely to approach this, also bodes well for...

You’re welcome!

It’s so disgusting. People who are poor struggle to pay bills because they, by definition, don’t have enough money. That lack of money is then used as evidence that they’re incapable of managing their finances (rather than reflecting the reality that social security payments haven’t kept up...

This card is separate to existing accounts, so won’t affect joint accounts and won’t affect cash in your accounts, because Indue and the card can’t access your bank account. It’s like getting a brand new debit card account in your name only and at a separate bank (which isn’t a bank and doesn’t...

The complacency of so many around so many topics: increased surveillance, meta-data etc. It’s mind-numbing.

To be fair, not all online stores are banned, but there are restrictions, and some huge sites are banned (eg: eBay and PayPal), but others (like iHerb) are not. There are so many stories about people having issues with the card, but the government is just glossing over them all. They‘re...

That’s terrible! How does the agent make people pay their rent?
