When we turned 30 in 2011, Tim and I made a plan to save £60 a month to save up for a holiday of a lifetime when we hit 40. It’s taken us 12 years but we are finally here on a 3 week adventure in California, Arizona and Nevada and so far it’s everything we hoped it would be 😍

I pray you are together again my sister.

The @metpoliceuk is so far from fit for purpose it’s terrifying. The heavy-handed and totally disproportionate treatment this woman received (in front of her distressed and bewildered young son) was for suspected bus fare evasion, to the tune of £1.75 1/2

In Britain, we’ve been taught kindness. But right now, the government’s Rwanda plan is treating innocent people like criminals. The government’s plan has been ruled unlawful. But we must stand together to make sure no flight to Rwanda ever takes off. Will you add your name?

#EmmelinePankhurst born 14 July 1858 Suffragette imprisoned in her efforts to gain the vote for British women. “We are here, not because we are law-breakers; we are here in our efforts to become law-makers.”

Before you speak, THINK T - is it true? H - is it helpful? I - is it inspiring? N - is it necessary? K- is it kind?

1/ My mum is 70 this year (Mashallah). She is the brightest, most capable, strong, hard working person I know. She has a degree in psychology and philosophy. She was married at 22 and spent her life cooking and cleaning for her husband and kids. She never worked. Which is fine -

Last year, I was offered a job even after disclosing a stage IV cancer diagnosis. Highlighting the very best of workplace acceptance and culture. But today, my husband unexpectedly had a job offer rescinded after letting the company know he may need 2 days off, a month after starting to help me recover from a possible minor surgery. We’re both software engineers and both companies are in the healthcare space. The response he received highlights the discrimination that not only many patients face but also their caregivers. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disheartened and frustrated by their response. When faced with the choice, be company A not company B. We’ve faced bigger hurdles and come out on top, so on we go. In other news, if anyone is looking to hire a talented software engineer w/experience in healthcare. I know a guy 😉 Here’s a photo of us on my birthday this year. We celebrated with a hackathon building tools/apps for cancer patients. Yes, that was my actual birthday request. Things get real nerdy around here.

Have a wonderful day , appreciate the simple things like this lil one #calm

My childhood friend and I used to eat "field berries" that we found near my primary school. Years later, I discovered that we'd been eating rabbit shit.

Something awful ends with something absolutely wonderful!

I’ve had two lots of good news this week and now I’m tense n waiting for the bad ! #trauma

Great thread. Speaking as an owner of breasts, I've long endured unsolicited comments or opinions from blokes. Guys, if your buddy does this then EDUCATE HIM because it's NEVER OK... women can shout about this forever but support from male allies is needed.

"No piece of art has ever emotionally affected me the way this robot arm piece has. It's programmed to try to contain the hydraulic fluid that’s constantly leaking out and required to keep itself running...if too much escapes, it will die so it's desperately trying to pull it back to continue to fight for another day. Saddest part is they gave the robot the ability to do these 'happy dances' to spectators. When the project was first launched it danced around spending most of its time interacting with the crowd since it could quickly pull back the small spillage. Many years later... (as you see it now in the video) it looks tired and hopeless as there isn't enough time to dance anymore.. It now only has enough time to try to keep itself alive as the amount of leaked hydraulic fluid became unmanageable as the spill grew over time. Living its last days in a never-ending cycle between sustaining life and simultaneously bleeding out... (Figuratively and literally as its hydraulic fluid was purposefully made to look like it's actual blood). "The robot arm finally ran out of hydraulic fluid in 2019, slowly came to a halt and died - And I am now tearing up over a friggin robot arm 😭 It was programmed to live out this fate and no matter what it did or how hard it tried, there was no escaping it. Spectators watched as it slowly bled out until the day that it ceased to move forever. Saying that 'this resonates' doesn't even do it justice imo. Created by Sun Yuan & Peng Yu, they named the piece, 'Can't Help Myself'. What a masterpiece. What a message." Extended interpretations: the hydraulic fluid in relation to how we kill ourselves both mentally and physically for money just in an attempt to sustain life, how the system is set up for us to fail on purpose to essentially enslave us and to steal the best years of our lives to play the game that the richest people of the world have designed. How this robs us of our happiness, passion and our inner peace. How we are slowly drowning with more responsibilities, with more expected of us, less rewarding pay-offs and less free time to enjoy ourselves with as the years go by. How there's really no escaping the system and that we were destined at birth to follow a pretty specific path that was already laid out before us. How we can give and give and give and how easily we can be forgotten after we've gone.. How we are loved and respected when we are valuable, then one day we aren't any longer and we become a burden...and how our young, free-caring spirit gets stolen from us as we get churned out of the broken system that we are trapped inside of. Can also be seen to represent the human life cycle and the fact that none of us make it out of this world alive. But also can act as a reminder to allow yourself to heal, rest and love with all of your heart. That the endless chase for 'more' isn't necessary in finding your own inner happiness.” - James Kricked Parr Read More Articles: weirdium.com/donny-osmond-br… Join Now: Kindness, Humanity & Inspiration

I got made redundant by my company day after they announced the "brilliant news" that they'd hired a laughologist. I set up anonymous email account & contacted the press. Read it here. dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scott…

Schofield has finally been caught out ... But he's not the only guilty party. 4 high members of Itv management knew what sort of man he was ...and NEVER once took action to prevent him controlling or taking advantage of his position over young people.
