So the most notable issue out of the No10 briefing seems to be that people cannot refuse bosses’ instruction to come into work if

A) they and their household are well

B) they cannot do their job from home (eg manufacturing and construction)

Even if they want to stay at home...
Matt Hancock in the Commons: “Where people absolutely cannot work from home, they can still go to work. Indeed it’s important they do to keep the country running.”
Labour is saying only key workers should go to work.

(Government saying anyone well who absolutely cannot work from home should go to work. This is particularly about construction and manufacturing industries)

Emergency Coronavirus legislation

- the key measures

This is based on the Explanatory notes rather than primary legislation (since it is easier for a layman to understand)

publications.parliament.uk/pa/bills/cbill…

The contents gives you an indication of scale: banning events, events bans
This is what the government says the bill is for: and it repeats that up to 80 per cent of the population could be infected. This is clearly the planning basis, even though chief scientists hope it will be far less than that
The legislation will be time-limited for two years, and some provisions will not come in at once.

THREAD: More from the #book of #Job.

#TwitCom

QUESTION: Where is Jesus to be found in one of the darkest chapters in Scripture, namely Job 9?

For the previous instalment, see the link below.

Otherwise, scroll down for suggestions.

SUMMARY:

In chs. 9–10, Job responds to Bildad’s rather simplistic and callous theology.

Understandably, he doesn’t respond to it well.

In fact, in emotional terms, Job seems to be at his worst in chs. 9–10.

His accusations against God are at their most hostile and irreverent,
which is largely due to Bildad’s uncharitable claims. (A speech which slanders a man’s recently deceased children is unlikely to do him much good: 8.4.)

Some of my favorite takeaways & quotes from Keith Rabois interviews 👇:
I think most ppl who succeed at changing the world have extreme talent in at least 1-2 dimensions. They also might have a screw loose in at least 1-2 dimensions.

The ones that thrive are self-aware enough to know where their screws are loose, & seek a compliment to solve for it.
If you’re going to succeed as a startup, you need to be able to find and hire undiscovered talent.

You cannot recruit people who are proven.

Why? There will always be large incumbents outbidding you when trying to hire known talented individuals

Thread: Careering through life as an #UndercoverAutistic

I've had 30+ jobs in 40+ years but then I only discovered last year I'm #ActuallyAutistic

As a child my career aspirations were:
a) nun
b) lighthouse keeper
c) almoner*

*hospital social worker #AllAutistics 1/
In the sixth form my art teacher got me a Saturday job at a picture framer's. My main role was making excuses when customers phoned.

A trip to buy supplies with the owner turned dodgy but luckily I had the presence of mind to get away.

#ActuallyAutistic #AllAutistics 2/
In my university vacations I worked back to back shifts in a bakery and local cinema to save up money.

On my first shift in the cinema the senior usherette threw hot tea over me. I was promoted to cashier and removed to the box office, out of harm's way #ActuallyAutistic 3/

So, I've waded through the Evangelical Alliance's new pastoral "guidelines" for interacting with trans people (ughh, the things I do to expose #transphobic #ciswits to the world), and let's just say it's time to tear this particular sh*t-bag a new hole.

So, straight off the bat, first page of text, the use of #language is . . . well, yeah, see for yourself:

"It is important to remember that transgender is not simply an issue to be debated;" - p5, #Transformed

*sigh*

When such language gets reinforced by insisting...

1/ @tomdelonge's disclosure campaign has had the UFO community buzzing since leaked Wikileaks emails to @johnpodesta confirmed high-level contacts. I watched his @tothestarsinc presentation in October, & the recent articles in the NYT seem to confirm that it's happening.
@tomdelonge @johnpodesta @ToTheStarsInc 2/ Here's the first NYT Times article, which is significant because pilot + radar sightings are some of the highest quality evidence. Note that @lesliekean is a co-author and a respected UFO journalist
