Every week, I speak to people in my constituency struggling with mental health.
Many are worried about feeding their kids, paying the rent or losing benefits.
Britain's mental health crisis is the result of political choices. This government is choosing to push more people into despair.

Labour has just declared war - on disabled people.
Come on, Starmer cheerleaders. Come out and defend this absolutely nauseating new attack.

Labour could tax the super-rich to end poverty, build social housing and fix our NHS.
They are choosing to go after the worst-off instead.
For a while, many people didnβt know what this government stood for. They do now: tough choices for the poor, endless money for war.

one of the most depressing realizations in politics is the day you understand that a lot of people would legitimately prefer to spend more money to make sure nobody βundeservingβ gets a benefit than to make it accessible to everyone

Why wonβt the media use the word misogyny?
Misogyny is at the core of these smear campaigns targeting women, yet news coverage consistently avoids naming it.
Since details of the smear campaign broke, initially in a big feature in The New York Times, then subsequently in dozens of articles on major news sites, not one outlet has used the word misogyny. www.usermag.co/p/blake-live...

Ah yes so this behaviour meant she *deserved* to be sexually harassed and have a smear campaign against her. Iβll remember that next time Iβve had a bad day at work, that I too, may deserve that.

To market the film that way was part of her contract that Baldoni wanted. He only switched it up after the controversy. He actively used survivors stories to feign that he cared about this topic to hide his behaviour.

I did indeed give that man my heart and the very next day he gave it away!

This is astonishing. As someone with a chronic illness I KNEW this to be true but often felt like people thought I was some sort of conspiracy theorist for suggesting big pharma and other exploits donβt have a vested interest in genuine health, but to see it clear as day in black and white π€―

A man looks at another man with an angry-seeming exression and comments "are you... mad at me?" The other mans says "no, I just have naturally arched eyebrows." The first man says "jeez, you don't have to fly off the handle like that." The arched eyebrow man says "but I-" The first man cowers and shouts "don't hurt me! I'll give you whatever you want!"

Fuck this BS therapy speak rhetoric that anyone that makes me you feel alive is someone you are trauma bonding with. In retrospect I still highly value that relationship even though it ended and he hurt me. I still love him deeply, and still he doesnβt know it. Isnβt life weird and beautiful.

There are pictures of us together and I wrote him poems and when I look back at them now it is BEYOND obvious that I was deeply besotted with this person, but I just thought he was my best friend at the time. I miss feeling like that.

I didnβt quite realise how in love I was with him until he moved away, but before that our relationship changed and it seemed those first few months to a year - I couldnβt get back. I couldnβt find the person he was anymore, I couldnβt find the connection we used to have.

I can remain somewhat anonymous on here for now - but I guess I fell in love with someone deeply about two years ago, and I think he knew but he didnβt know, you know. We donβt speak anymore. I deeply miss him. He made me feel so alive. We held hands. We held each other through a lot.
