I say this as a victim and as a lawyer and as a journalist and as a woman in public, no one, literally no one in power, cares about victims of sexual violence. This is why they promise women more police and prisons (allegedly to help them) while fancy men who are friends with Epstein go free.

When the government is one of the biggest customers of many businesses and you cut spending which means private enterprises don’t make money and so they also don’t hire any of the public servants you fired for no reason, you end up with the economy we have now.
Even Nicola should get this.

This is seriously so bad. I'm essentially broke if I can't get my money, and that means a lot of shit too. Like the layers of awful here would take so long to explain. Layers upon layers. I'm MELTING THE FUCK DOWN. The only fix is finding this bloody thing. What the fuck why isn't it in my purse?!?
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. I seem to have lost my old phone, which is FUCKING AWFUL because it means I've lost the ability to touch almost all of my money. I have no fucking idea where it is. The last place I put it was in my purse and it's not there now. I hate this so much. Fucking fuck!!

I really wish Labour would come out and say:
We will undo all the shitty coalition policies
We will enshrine Te Tiriti
We will not protect abusers and do deal with the criminal Presidents
We will tax wealth
We will look after the voters not the donors.
I will still vote Green.

I can recommend these. I'm perennially amazed that so many of my more (ahem) vintage friends go to gigs without earplugs. You might not use them every time, but you really want the option.
On a friendly note, it's difficult times, workwise. If you were ever thinking about getting some really nice earplugs for that gig you've got tickets for, I'd love you to consider mine. They're very good, I just quite suck at *checks* spending money on advertising.
