I'm personally bothered by the rise of #antinatalism, because I know I definitely want to have #kids.

I want to give them the #unconditional #love and #respect that I didn't get enough of #GrowingUp. I want to do my best to raise them with respect for #nature and their #community, and to be #critical but #compassionate and #OpenMinded. I know the #world is broken and it isn't on them to fix it, but I know that the last thing our world #needs is fewer #children in it.

This is a well designed piece of research. It finds, unsurprisingly, that better cleaning = fewer hospital acquired infections = reduced costs.

How astonishing that such an argument needs to be made!

If we had more #respect for the #work done by #cleaners the connection between how well resourced they are to do their work, & outcomes for patients & costs to the hospital, would be obvious to all of us. Even hospital administrators.

When cleaning is contracted out & budgeted through line items that are separate from those used for clinical services, perverse incentives are created to ‘economise’ on non-clinical functions to improve a notional bottom line. I would guess something like this is at play here.

As is so often the case, the funding model is the problem. #health #hospitals #cleaning

Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority”

and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person”

and they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay.

Bravo, Senator Booker! Thanks, #GQP #media for noticing.... now if only We the People had sane, non-#cult 'representatives' before the eyes of the world, our selves, our G/d(s) if we have one (or more) #Respect .... Booker is trying to draw our miniscule attention to: #democracy #law #decency

Meanwhile, in the U.S. #Senate...

@HarriettMB I do expect @antidiskriminierung and @AuswaertigesAmt to affirm #AntiDiscrimination #laws and either force the #US embassy & consulates to comply with #Germany's laws or close and cease operations.

If the #USA refuses to acknowledge that, they there is no basis for #diplomacy and I urge #contractors to press charges for #blackmail and #coercion if they get approached to fulfill for such #racist, #sexist, #ableist and otherwise #discriminatory demands because doing so violates national and #EU #laws!
