Walk away. It will help others do the same.

Why do we keep on accepting the unacceptable? We are complicit in this is if we don’t stand up to it. It appalls me. @primeministeruk.bsky.social at this point you should have stood up and said this press conference is over.

When Frisky nearly didn’t get married. I was a wreck.

It was the one where frisky nearly doesn’t get married. Someone should have warned me.

First time watching an episode of Bluey today and ended up a total blubbering wreck. Blimey.

Congratulations! #superstar 🙌
