Haven't been paying attention to this but, surprise surprise, it seems like there are still plenty of people out there who have no clue about how power dynamics work 🙄

Oh Amol 😍
Love the way the University Challenge desk makes him look like a little boy.

Yes indeed. I think I knew that. We need more decent 3D human encounters, because they are where the life comes from

Yes. Radical.

The last one made me snigger

Maybe they're too busy checking in with clergy families, especially those with marriages in crisis or beyond repair... 🤔🤔🤔

This ☝️

Hope is a thing we have to do

As per usual, "procedural realities", and minimising the risk of drawing attention to the mess, seem to be more important than human beings 😮‍💨

Love a good moos story

Thanks. Please repost!

This may only be a tiny survey but we are convinced it's the tip of a very large iceberg, across all denominations.

Those affected often believe they are the only one. They're really not!

With thanks to our members who contributed to this and worked hard on it, and to @churchtimes.bsky.social for this report.
We, and our children, wait to see who takes notice of it..!

PS looks lush though. If anyone can get the time off, I'd say GFI

Fear, I fear

(And btw, obvs not just Labour- in case anyone objects to our appearing to take sides🙄)

The ever-widening gaps are appalling.

Let's just start a better society, and walk tall anyway.

#ShameMustChangeSides here too

FYI Universal Credit for a single person is £4,801.68 per annum for which you will be harassed, coerced and threatened constantly via your own mobile phone by the DWP, while in media you will be called scrounging workshy scum by the LABOUR party.

Ah, the challenge- How to channel the pain and anger whilst still feeling it, still on the receiving end of all that causes it, and yep, feeling responsible to sort it all out!
Advocates needed 🙏😮‍💨🥴

Not seen that performance before... Just, WOW.
Thanks for sharing

Much of the noise is an attempt to control people. Silence is letting be, which can be such a gift

Trying to get head around the idea that ironing board covers actually wear out... 🤔
This one only sees daylight every few months

Oh do you do deliveries? Up the stairs, first door on the left. 7 a.m. please, but don't wake the lodger
