People massively underestimate the importance of joy in life.

Its the aim. Everything else is, broadly, secondary. Joy and leaving the world a better place

obviously this is mental in and of itself but man alive it really does suck extra hard when you think about all the ACTUAL CRIMES the police just isn't investigating, because of "lack of resources"

got a bag nicked two years ago in a pub and 1) the pub offered to give the police CCTV 2) it took me a while to block my Monzo so I had a list of places the thief had spent my money in, and they also presumably have CCTV, but the police refused to investigate

some guys with placards though? on it!

just saw a poster at Grantham train station for โ€˜ยฃ50 OFF a FULL BODY MRI SCAN, NO REFERRAL REQUIREDโ€™. If you listen closely you can hear Wilson and Jungner spinning in their graves

never known disappointment quite like going to the Fan Museum in Greenwich yesterday and noticing that their little leaflets said "why not become a friend of the museum?" and not, you know

Isnโ€™t it horrible! I was so sad when heโ€™d been so kind to a stranger. Thanks - managed a vasovagal on the pavement and have a rather fetching graze on my face now!

So horrified at how people treat each other. Became unwell and collapsed on my way home today. An uber driver kindly looked after me until I was picked up. He called next customer while I was in the car to apologise, explain and cancel the journey. She verbally abused him until she hung up. Awful

One nurse told The Sunday Times: "We had an elderly patient who was end-of-life & because we didnโ€™t have space, she was moved onto the corridor & she passed away there. I think that was one of the saddest moments. Itโ€™s so inhumane, itโ€™s awful."

She is thinking about quitting.

the greatest christmas story ever told uses the threat of dying alone and unmourned to scare a wealthy man straight and i think thatโ€™s just really nice

never know what to post first (like doing your best handwriting on the first page of an exercise book) so hereโ€™s my lovely new home in the snow
