Enjoyed too and a fan. @rickygervais - unfortunately fat shaming is common and unhelpful by many of my colleagues. Your comments are off the mark (not your fault). Too often ‘weight’ is discussed in a simplistic, disempowering way. Vital for docs to focus on wellbeing not weight.
Such a treat to listen to two highly intelligent people in conversation. @SamHarrisOrg & @RickyGervais on comedy, taboo, mob idiocy on social media, wokeness, Venn diagrams, inability to distinguish jokes from reality, failure to get irony, & much more

A terrific summary article on why our/our society’s focus on weight is so unhelpful. By the brilliant @LindaBaconHAES

One of the many reasons why Ash Barty is an inspiration, a young leader, and a star. I counted 4 ‘we’s’ in 3 sentences. #AshBarty #TennisAustralia #Wimbledon2019
That’s so wonderful Rob that you have created a life for yourself without the intrusive and often distressing messages that can come from within and outside ourselves. And thank-you, that’s such a beautiful thing to say and share about me and my work.
A very proud Dad, congrats to @elsievibes and I really think ‘Riverside’ is a great song (not biased of-course!) xitter.cf/songwriteruniv/status/…

In the name of self-care and self-nurturing, I am having to take time off. Enjoy the rest of the year. Best Rick
