Horrified Trump admin will no longer commentate World AIDS Day—All because he can’t put his name to it, there’s nothing in it for him & his malignant narcissism—He’d rather rename oceans, build ballrooms & chase down journos
Priorities of a man who measures success in crowd sizes, not lives saved 💔

Fair play to Rachel Reeves for reminding everyone that Kemi Badenoch sneered at her plans as a “Benefits Street” budget—yet backed Liz Truss’s economic demolition derby 100%. Funny how fiscal amnesia kicks in when the receipts start flying

Facing Laura Kuenssberg and Piers Morgan at 9am on a Sunday feels like the BBC accidentally scheduled a psychological torture pilot.
Experiencing a major cortisol spike with the energy of a hostage negotiation conducted by two people I wouldn’t trust with a toaster.

Agree 100%
Owners conflate real terms inflation with a generational property boom where house prices have outstripped wages
• £5k in 1970 is ~£70k today
• £70k>£2.5m is 3500% value increase
Save the “I worked hard, I sacrificed” crap
You didn’t earn it—You won life’s lottery
Now pay the tax

Did you buy a house in 1970?
Did it cost you £5,000?
Is it now worth £2.5m?
You did fuck all to earn that wealth.
Stop complaining about being taxed on it.

Got out of work early, dodged the drizzle, ran a piping hot Radox bath… then decided the perfect pairing was an ice-cold litre bottle of Peroni.
40 minutes later I’m totally sloshed, fully poached, mildly marinated and about to slide off the bone like a well-cooked chicken. 🛁🍺

In the office listening to colleagues froth about lifting the 2 child benefit cap — acting like preventing child poverty personally threatens their garden-centre lunch fund, premium-bond shrine, driveway-resurfacing projects, winter cruises and caravan-park fees. Privilege really is a full-time job!

Foolishly checked X for budget talk & it’s in white privileged panic mode:
“They’ll tax my Tesla!”
“They’ll tax my 3rd home!”
“We need Winter Fuel for our home ext!”
Then talking about private schools, ski holidays, horses & wine subscriptions like they’re food, water & oxygen

As a Millennial, I refuse to accept skinny jeans are dead—All mine have finally tapped out—rips, tears, even a super-glue incident. Went shopping yesterday but all alternatives screamed “middle-age poof”—Off to the office now—in straight-legs, serving Gen Z rejects meets failed Bugsy Malone audition

Watching Prisoner 951 and the emotional whiplash Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe endured is sickening—scarce info, constant blindfolds, never knowing where she was being taken. The disorientation, fear, and loss of agency were all tools designed to erode time, trust and her sense of self #Prisioner951

RIP Udo Kier — the magnificently weird actor whose piercing stare and audacious roles made him a legend. A true cult icon and fearless character, always teetering on the edge of camp and terror. And damn, he was never so terrifying as when he cut the strings on Madonna’s balloons #UdoKeir

Watching Prisoner 951—the story of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe’s detention in Iran. I was not prepared for how harrowing this would be. I wish I could dismiss it as fiction, but every moment was real. So was her resilience. Her story still needs to be heard.

In 2027, I turn 40, so it’s time for my next chapter: #40Before40! A decade ago I did #30Before30 challenge, a genuinely cathartic “dream detox” that cleared the slate of 30yrs of dreaming about things I could simply do. Now I’m ready to clear the slate again & chase the dreams that grew since 30 🧵

Nothing screams “eternal youth” like me dragging out thermal vests on 18th November. Mark my words: future research will prove gays are actually meant to hibernate every winter. Until then, I’ll be fabulous and freezing under three layers 🥶✌️

Thank you @mrjamesob.bsky.social, for introducing me to allostatic load. 37 years old, 19 years in therapy, and somehow I’ve never heard about this. Suddenly, a lot has fallen into place and makes a lot more sense—who knew science could be the plot twist I needed! 🙌🧠💥 #LateToMyOwnParty

Been awake since 3am, temps dropped faster than a whore’s drawers, and coffee has officially betrayed me. Now in the office, headphones in, properly bobbing to Madonna’s ‘Secret’.Going back to 1994 in my head, one groove at a time. Full strut, zero shame, 100% unapologetic vibe. 💃🎧🔥
