So, for those who followed my 84 days of Sludge Diet posts, you will know that I cope with stuff by posting through it. Today starts my 30 days of Yoga challenge in support of Mind. There won’t be pictures, but there will be thoughts. I always wanted to try yoga, so just took this as a sign

I'll take 'Questions You're Going To Regret Asking' for $5000, Alex
Could someone explain to me what is meant when a British person refers to "the middle class" ? Like, in the US, as I hear it, it basically just means a person who makes a certain amount of money, not too far below and not wildly above the median. Seems like a complex concept when UK writers use it?

TIL that blood platelets have serotonin receptors, which is why anemia can mimic depression symptoms and that is absolutely fucking fascinating.

Someone I never knowingly met rocked up at my desk today telling me that I was cool and she appreciated my direct style, so she was really happy to finally spot me in person. Nice. Normalise non-creepy ego boosting compliments in the work place

As a politician, I expect opposition and debate. But when it centres on personal insults, not policies, something else is going on, says the leader of the Green party, Zack Polanski

Have you noticed how these advice pieces always recommend mandatory sex but never mandatory picking up dirty laundry, sticking on a load of washing or scheduling regular, compulsory cleaning and tidying, or putting out the bins?

Monsters Inc meets Alien Vs Predator, love it
I saw a random reddit comment where someone theorized that Pennywise and Mary Poppins were the same species of primordial psychic entity, but Pennywise feeds on fear while Poppins feeds on joy. both of them eat kid emotions because fear and joy are more intense in kids. This is Canon for me now.

I thought this was photoshopped but no, oh no indeed. Someone spray painted a goat for last year's #Respectival.

That's their idea of a "poignant tribute".
Wow.

My husband is an immigrant. Labour are trying to extend the period to be eligible for ILR from 5 years to 10, costing us thousands of pounds on top of the more than £35k he's already paid to be here in student fees, visa fees and NHS surcharge costs
As a Safety manager in the NHS, Labour is most likely making me redundant, and I could lose my house. Making NHS patients less safe in the process.

Why aren't Labour's life-changing policies connecting with voters - and what can the party do? It's down to messaging, how it's told, and the messengers...
