Dear @sainsburys.bsky.social Please can you alter your algorithm so when you send a substitute for meal deal you donโ€™t send a veggie(me) a pie of venison and beef? ๐Ÿ˜‰ Yuck. Maybe you need MORE plant based options? So much better for the planet. Itโ€™d be nice to actually have a choice. ๐Ÿ˜

Riot Women review โ€“ Sally Wainwrightโ€™s menopausal punk drama is one of her best This high-pedigree TV drama about midlife women who form a punk band is up there with Happy Valley and Last Tango in Halifax. Itโ€™s rich, plot-packed, and perfectly seasoned with humour

Did you see Riot women last night? So good, had to watch ep 2 on iplayer. What joy to watch a lot of older women on screen. Scores highly on Bechdale! That cloak of invisibilty that descends on the older women is beautifully drawn by Sally Wainwright. Fabulous www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Ok, Iโ€™ve been a bit tardy about using this platform. I need to give it more of a chance. So if youโ€™re interested in gender equality (OK, I mainly mean advancing women, challenging sexism etc) do connect. Oh, and #cats & #knitting & #gardening

Femageism is ageism plus. Itโ€™s that special category reserved for women which can start any time in our forties.

Repeat after me, older women are fabulous!

@stephenfry.bsky.social love your video re #Parkinsonโ€™s! Husband has it but bizarrely has been godsend. He had the most terrible depression and anxiety for years, was suicidal, but Parky drugs have given him back to me. My adorable retired firefighter is smiling and enjoying life!

When I listen to politicians of all hues giving vague bland answers I long for someone like Mo Mowlem. She was direct and refreshing!
