  1. This #ChristmasFilm, “Christmas Wonderland” (2018), is definitely one to play in the background, as we speed through seven days in a snowy, rural town. This #ChristmasMovie is good on the eye, but will not tax your brain… at all! This was my fourth viewing and if it appears I shall watch again; but I should not go looking for it. 😉

  2. Tried to watch the #ChristmasFilm “Christmas Unwrapped” (2020), but had to give in. Cliché’d tropes, wooden acting (with a couple of exceptions), lack of chemistry… I could almost have believed the ‘NSB’ was a cult. After three-quarters-of-an-hour I had to give up on this fairly poor #ChristmasMovie. View at own risk!

  3. One and one is two - that’s business,
    One and one is four - that’s art - or if you like it better - is life.
    I think that makes clear; the many-fold seeing, the many-fold reading of the world,
    makes us broader, wider, richer.
    In education, a single standpoint cannot give a solid firm stand.
    Thus, let us have different viewpoints, different standpoints.
    Let us observe in different directions and from different angles…

  4. "The #SolfagnanoCharter is a promising declaration, but its true impact will depend on it being followed by real improvements. We call on #G7 leaders to back their words with actions and funding, both within their borders and on the international stage."

  5. #PwME generally have one or more #Comorbidities: I personally have six of the ones listed at the bottom of the diagram (far too complex to write a summary thereof). I have #SevereME, a loss of the vast majority of pre-illness function. #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis kills those with #VerySevereME and I dread the ineluctable slide into said category…

  6. @Sapiophielle My fave #ChristmasFilm is #TheChristmasGift (1986) with inter alia #JohnDenver (only two songs I think and his acting is not great), #JaneKaczmarek & #MaryWickes. It is schmaltzy - no denying - but there is some drama involving a lost child in a blizzard. Also, imo, a few good laughs. And the romance aspect is not over-played like many more recent #ChristmasMovies. High Art it is not; but great for the feels! 🎄🎬

  7. Various factors have coïncided making me think today of the #dancer, #PinaBausch (R.I.P.) and her breath-taking #dance performances.

    “Her belief in dance as the most direct way in which life can express itself was absolute.”

  8. @tomkindlon @mecfs Being #bedridden does not preclude the possibility of #WFH, if such is available. However, the #cognitive effects of #SevereME make any kind of work impossible. Personally, most of the time, I cannæ recall to eat, drink, take meds, wash, etc. without being prompted.

  9. This was a day I was #bedridden (like the vast majority of my days). #Stress (I suffer from #SocialAnxiety, general #anxiety & resultant #PanicAttacks) placed me in the fat-burning zone for nearly 10.5 hours. And this, whilst not occurring every single day, is the dominant feature of my Fitbit reports. No #AntiAnxiety meds for nearly 5 months.

    No #medications No #SocialCare Minimal #FoodAndWater No #HygieneSupport No help with #Dressing etc.

  10. I just tweeted - the orgs are not on Mastodon as far as I know:

    “Housemate made a rare visit home during the working-day, so I got a snack - a buttered hot-cross bun with an espresso. 😊

    Only average 1 meal/day usually.

  11. Over the past few days I went 26 hours without a meal, at which point ex-boyf stepped in, came over and cooked some pasta. Then another 49 hours without a meal. In the past 13 weeks I have averaged exactly one day/week with no food. I ate 1 meal per day on average. #SocialCareCrisis #pwME #bedridden #SevereME #Malnutrition #BloodSugar #Dehydration

  12. Final two dating-apps deleted. My dating-life is officially ended, although it de facto ended a couple of years back when my health deteriorated under the ‘care’ of #TraffordCouncil due to their failures to ensure I was fed & hydrated properly, becoming mostly #bedridden. #SocialCare #SocialCareCrisis

  13. @will_ins_Gruene Alas, I am 99% #bedridden. I try to get downstairs once/week, but this is the first time in eighteen days. Spent an hour in kitchen then crawled up the stairs to first-floor sitting-room. Forty-five mins. in recliner. Then crawled up next flight to my bed-cell. Stuffed & happy! #SocialCareCrisis

  14. @kfarinsky As a severely #disabled & #ChronicallyIll #bedridden person, with poor #homeostasis, and catches bugs rather easily, I cannæ afford to take the risk. Additionally, my GP took a year or so to decide I could have a vaccination and which one, but then failed to give any follow-up jabs. I have to protect myself as best I can, not just from #Covid19.

  15. @goodlawproject I am severely #disabled & #ChronicallyIll resulting in my being #bedridden c.99% of the time. For myself #parks are of no use, unless they contain planting that encourages insects or trees to clean the #air - not all do! However, children need somewhere to #play, to run about, etc. Even expensive #MiddleClass homes are constructed with tiny #gardens. Most children need #OpenSpaces. I am a retired reception-teacher (Kindergarten).

  16. @mister_goldfish Not well. Still sporadically attempting to obtain appropriate #SocialCare from #Trafford Council. Mostly rec’g a snack at 16.00 & dinner c.20.00, but #Carers mostly forget #hygiene, #dressing, and so on. With my #memory issues I rarely recall to do things myself, and even if I do, being #bedridden means I cannæ do things w/o carer-support. Enough about me. How are Mrs. Goldfish & yourself doing? 💙

  17. Managed another #ChristmasFilm in several parts. #AMagicalChristmasVillage has a much better, for the most part, less schmaltzy script than most #ChristmasMovies. I should view again, but I shall not go searching for it. #LukeMacFarlane’s smile just makes my heart melt…

  18. If you have any kind of #neurological condition (e.g. #pwME, #pwFM, #pwMS, etc.) or are a #carer for someone with such a condition, please consider completing the anonymous 2024/5 survey.

  19. Perhaps I ought to have elucidated that this is not solely for #pwME, but also those with #Fibromyalgia #pwFM, #LongCovid #pwLC, #PostViralFatigueSyndrome #PVFS, etc. as well as healthy folk to act as #controls. Please consider signing up. There is no guarantee one will be selected, but the act of volunteering lends support to this much-needed effort. 🙏🏻🌈💕

  20. I have signed up to #OpenMedicineFoundation‘s volunteer research-participant register, #StudyME , whereby scientists can locate potential contributors. The sign-up takes approximately five minutes.

    I have #SevereME and the last page of text was the most difficult & time-consuming section for me to follow.

  21. Another #TeriHatcher & #DanPayne #ChristmasMovie, but this time quite watchable - if one ignores the preposterousness of this actually funny rom-com, #ChristmasAtTheChalet (2023). TH’s hair looks a bedraggled mess throughout, but p’raps matches her exuberant character. #WilliamDeVry plays an (uncharacteristically for #ChristmasFilms) introverted love-interest. I should view again, but donæ recommend one searches it out.
