It’s very important to keep moving as much as you can after a fibromyalgia flare-up. Even if you feel like someone’s elderly fucking relation. I just did ten minutes round the block and that’s enough for now. Aim for balance.

Personally I’m not finding it funny that kids are saying they’re going to stare at walls because they can’t have their phones. That’s a societal failing.
My library cards have given me the life I have since I was five, which is way better than staring at a fucking phone all day.

Boy, she really has some nerve.
“Say Thanks to Dad,” says the woman who cut her own father out of her life, denied him the chance to meet his son-in-law and never allowed him to know his grandchildren.
Now she wants to lecture the rest of us about celebrating Father’s Day? The hypocrisy is staggering. Meghan has spent years preaching family values while treating her own father as disposable.
Spare us the sentimental marketing campaign.

Brookers is a grade-A chump. But this plays right into the hands of his accusations. This was all for the cameras. Like VB pouting like a moron at the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Team No-One on this.

It's not a coincidence that the richest man in history is also the saddest, most pathetic, unlikeable cunt in history

I’m choosing to remember her like this @87colB. I don’t know who this person is that we have now. If that makes me a judgy cunt then so be it.

This reminds of that FB post where someone thought a bloke was taking a pic of a dog thinking he was going to steal it but it was really because he couldn’t believe what a fat lump it was.
A driver thought a dog was hit by a car but it was just having the nap of a lifetime.
