Thanks for the thoughts all. He is still in hospital, but doing better. I’ve swapped with my partner, so she’s gone home to work while I sit with the boy.
TVblog: watched an episode of The Orville which was truly star-studded, and another one directed by Jonathan Frakes. MacFarlane really makes use of his Hollywood connections.
There's some great TV tonight on The SportHole Network.
I'll be watching 'The Nissan Micra Nutbanger 500', where a cash prize is donated to the first contestant who can withstand having his testicles slammed in a car door 500 times in a row.
Followed by 'Pro-Celebrity Pointing'. This week: Pointing at a dog.

New PUBG game comes out soon and straight to mobile. Looks like PUBG on PC and console has been abandoned. Ridiculous really, the Steam version alone had more than 1 million concurrent players at one point.

Some peak Guardian here:
"That’s how I found Avary Kent. She’s part of the AltParenting movement, which seeks to redefine the traditional family structure, and is raising her daughter, Tavi, with two men in Oakland: Zeke Hausfather, her husband and Tavi’s biological father; and David Jay, an asexual activist who’d always wanted a child but wasn’t quite sure how to have one – until he befriended Kent."
Nursey is due some time to remind me of the pleasures having my legs cleaned and massaged. They are likely to be amateurs - there vacancies are now at 30% even with new staff coming in. And let's not forget the delightful agency nurses who tend to have the bedside manner of an undertaker.
The government may be putting more cash in for recruitment, but retention has been and increasingly is a bigger problem. The churn rate means that fewer and fewer experienced nurses are left. Even the new nurses, once they get experienced also decamp to hospitals, surgeries or become pregnant in order to get off the stressful treadmill. The conditions which this government has created through willing to trade lives and persistent long covid in order to pursue their dogmatic adherence to a flawed economic model.
Edit: Ghods help me it's amateur hour - today's Nursey is an agency nurse...
The timing seems a bit brutal, but as long as you're happy.
One of the best things about this place is when I think 'nah, that's a bit close to the line' I know someone will cross that line and then build a house on it.

What happened to poor David Jay? I fear that by the time they got to name him they had exhausted their imagination with made up names like Avary Kent and Zeke Hausfather. But that's alright because nothing will ever beat Zeke Hausfather.

That's true, they put some effort into Avary, Zeke and Tavi, but clearly thought an asexual activist who was unclear how children are made was outlandish enough and so named him Dave.
Gruandia Jacob Rees-Mogg laughed off the idea that he might don a face mask in parliament. While the government of which he is part advises face coverings to be worn in crowded places, the leader of the Commons claimed that Conservatives enjoy far too much of a “convivial, fraternal spirit” to comply
Cold out and in here today. Good luck for crumbles and amipal. Hope things work out. More working from home as awaiting chemicals stuck in Europe, brexit now?
