I haven’t been on this app for a while and I have only just seen this post of yours!!

I’m in the UK, thankfully there are a couple more hours left so I am manically scrolling through your recommended list πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Drinks in fridge so they’re cooler

I’m having to set reminders to make sure I’m drinking.

We’ve also been making up our drinking bottles so we can just grab them.

Ice cubes - we have reusable ones

If I could afford an air conditioner I’d look at buying one.

Any other advice I’ve missed?

Ice lollies (any #GlutenFree recommendations?)

Black out blinds

Ice towels

Remember to check if your meds can affect you negatively with the heat too.
I’m on #Duloxetine which does

#PoTSies How are we managing in the heat?

I’m struggling. I have fans in every room, I’ve been getting some great tips over on threads…

electrolytes (I’m searching for salt free as I have high BP)

fruit in high water content

Cooling mats

My doctor thinks I may have arthritis.

I don’t know whether to laugh or cry whenever I go to an apt anymore.

Since March I’ve been diagnosed with tinnitus (noise is permanent) b12 deficiency, low vitamin D, low iron & now starting to investigate arthritis.

Today marks nine years since Jo Cox was assassinated by a far-right extremist, a terrible loss to those who knew and loved her and to politics. Zero lessons were learned though and the far-right continues to be pandered to. With more political assassinations in the US it all feels too familiar.

My GP sent me a text today telling me I need to complete a Risk Awareness Form as I take topiramate.

They should do their own research first as I’m not happy at all.

Apparently the medication can cause significant harm to an unborn child - I’ve had a hysterectomy πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

What’s the harm? Well…

After watching @geminitaymc.bsky.social play @vintagestorygame.bsky.social I bought a family bundle for the game.

We have only just started, I have died several times & am loving every minute of it.

Are you heading to every post you moron?

Or have you taken a particular dislike to me?

I don’t actually need to explain myself to you.
You’ve rightly said you are not in the UK, so why don’t you go and annoy someone else.

And please, don’t ever say I’ve said something I haven’t!

Have you seen any other posts on what our PM has been doing recently?
Or have you decided to comment on only mine for some reason only known to you?

He has decided to U-turn on many of his manifesto promises - but his speech yesterday went too far.

Many people are saying the same as I am.

Starmer shouldn’t switch sides when it suits him.

What he is saying now goes against what he said when he wasn’t our PM.

If he is happy to say whatever people want to hear he is not a man of principles & that is not a leader.

Besides, which minority group is he going to throw under the bus next?

It’s such a scary thought.

I don’t know what this Gov are thinking, and I’m worried about future voting patterns & what that may bring us.

Immigration is not the cause of people's problems. So, to anyone who thinks it is, they will always demand more.
When this round of immigrant bashing doesn't win Reform voters and only makes our problems worse what is next?
Deportations?
Camps?

@chazelgrovemp.bsky.social

I would like to know if you are ok with being a member of an openly racist Party & Government?

A leader using terms from a speech made by #EnochPowell and saying that immigrants have done β€˜incalculable damage’ to the UK - this is abhorrent!!

Still staying silent?

Let's be crystal clear: doing some good stuff doesn't give you a free pass to also do a whole bunch of bad stuff. And when the bad stuff is REALLY bad, no amount of good stuff can compensate.

Labour have flirted with that hard line many times since the GE. Today's immigration assault leaps over it.

I may not be religious, but I am interested to hear from anyone that may have been at this?

Seeing as Claire has said she will vote in line with party how does that align with faith?

Labour policies will push people into poverty.

I’m genuinely interested.

Keir Starmer claims soaring immigration has done incalculable damage to UK economically and politically

Keir Starmer claims soaring immigration has done incalculable damage to UK economically and politically

Shameful bullish. What's done incalculable damage is a decade of pernicious falsehoods about immigration, while people who should know better refuse to counter the lies of the increasingly normalised far right.

Let's tackle those lies:

Keir Starmer denies pushing anti-migrant policies in order to chase Reform, saying that "I'm doing this because it is right, because it is fair and because it is what I believe".

A reminder of what he said he believed when he was running for Labour leader.

So, as a disabled person who doesn’t have a degree where do I sit on the β€˜importance’ scale in the UK?

This is a ridiculous move by Starmer and the #LabourParty

& goes against the manifesto the party was elected on 🀬

But this Government is cutting support everywhere.

That’s the problem.

The evidence shows that by following the path Starmer has chosen it is going to lead to more problems. Is that so difficult to understand?
