Politicians have chosen to be in the public spotlight.

We choose intense scrutiny and everyone is entitled to an opinion. And that's right.

But how do these nasty digs about physical appearance serve anyone?

It's no wonder so many people - particularly women - are put off ever getting involved.

Snag all the way. Online so you don’t have to go to a shop.

I’m so sorry. I’m lying on my sofa binge watching Vampire Diaries and thinking really hard about all my brilliant and unfinished projects. Again.

I have so much more to say in this but you know, I know and those who don’t know, mostly don’t care. I’m angry and sad by turns.

Hard relate. We have so much to offer but “accommodations”, when they are available, are always made through an ableist lens.

Plumes of smoke from Israeli attacks were seen rising over Gaza hours after Israel and Hamas agreed to the first phase of a ceasefire plan, brokered by Donald Trump.

Less than half an hour ago reports from Gaza told us Israel is bombing Palestinians returning from the north because they’d heard about the ceasefire.

My maternal line were Cohens. I used to be proud. Now I’m sad and angry. I categorically do not love Israel.

Pay attention to the language that will be used by much of the media.

The Global Sumud Flotilla never entered Israeli waters.

They are in international waters attempting to reach Palestinian waters.

Israel is once again breaking international law

The entire world is out in the streets protesting Israel’s illegal interception of the Sumud Flotilla- carrying aid to break the siege on Gaza.

We are done with this genocide. We are done with our complicit leaders. We are done with Zionism.

Israel illegally attacks Global Sumud Flotilla. Comms have gone dark, cameras are offline and flotilla’s boats were boarded by armed, masked commando forces. Yet another breach of international law attempting to silence voices against genocide of Palestinians.

Keir Starmer to announce plans for digital ID scheme The prime minister believes a new scheme would help crack down on illegal working in the UK.

How would this work for my partner, his brother and many like them? Folk who stiill use a dumb phone, or no phone or are unable to use tech? What about all the younger people eschewing smart phones? Will the government provide everyone with a phone and pay the bills? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I paid last week. What happened to that money?

I guess I’ll cut my losses and go back to writing “not represented” on my ballot paper.

It's the Autumn Equinox - the first astronomical day of autumn! 🍂

Crisp air on your cheeks...
The smell of damp earth.
Dew sparkling in cobwebs.
Cold hands wrapped around a hot drink.
A Robin singing as golden leaves crunch underfoot...

#AutumnEquinox

Red, autumnal leaf landed on grass.

Rest some more.
The light will return.

Still, I don’t think I’ll make plans to visit the US any time soon.
Let’s just hope he doesn’t steer Tory-in-Labour-clothing and arse-licker extraordinaire Keir Starmer any further down that road.

AFAIK there is no such organisation. We referred to ourselves as #antifa when I was still healthy enough to march and protest, short for #antifascist. I am indeed #antifascism and I am most definitely sick and probably a disaster. I don’t think I’m dangerous and I’m not a terrorist.

Your posts usually resonate with my family and my mum even says you’re her spirit animal but this - this wins the internet for ever. I’ve never wanted anything more without even realising that I’ve always wanted it! I’m going to bed early to lucid dream it.

Fantastic effort! I’m trying to walk 20 minutes everyday now as per doctor’s advice. Alone. My dog died a few months ago and it’s so hard to motivate. Probably not fair to get another dog just yet but I really really want one!

Limit your time on socials - I have to or I go insane. I’m disabled and also addicted to the internet so I’m online a lot but I’ve deleted all other accounts plus really limit my time here. It’s actually liberating!

Looks yummy. And you don’t have to explain yourself to anyone, least of all entitled, judgey people.
We are all doing our best. You are not the problem.
