The universe has its plans for us. We're still here for a reason. Let's live well so Death will tremble to take us. Don't take each day or people for granted. Don't waste your time on idiot people. Live your life to be happy in whatever makes you happy. Wear sunscreen.
Have good days all 🖤

With the usual caveats that your hilarious replies are hilarious, I know Google exists & telling me I don't need this, I need something else instead will be ignored:
Can anyone recommend a meditation app that is good for anxiety, devoid of too much new age woo and most importantly, free?
Thanks.

Some mid-afternoon melancholy. Love this song 🥹
Why do I do this to myself
Every time I know the way it ends
Before it's even begun
I am the only one at the finish line

If the PM reckons Jim Ratcliffe should apologise for spreading this exact same lie, should the Home Office apologise too, or? 🤨

He's right. I've had cataract surgery on both eyes. Long story but don't be frightened of it. It's quick & painless. I was awake throughout. Look after your eyes 👀

The so-called Save America Act will force 21 million American citizens to produce passports or birth certificates just to register to vote. Most do not have them ready. Turning paperwork into a barrier is a poll tax by another name. #HandsOffHerVote social.demcast.com/s/L9X3k1fQ

Sadly, no club has ever faced a reckoning for continuing to field or defend a man accused of rape and there is nothing to indicate that will change now.
