I'm chaos as a person, even more when I'm meant to be doing something. I'm hoping this might motivate me a bit, and maybe help others too!

You can use the work time to do whatever you need to get done - paid work, writing, job searching, studying, crafts, housework, etc

Basically there will be a video call, 10 minutes to chat and share goals, an hour on mute (but chat option there) doing our work, 10 minutes chat and updates, an hour work, 10 minutes final chat and share how we have managed.

If you can't afford to contribute that is absolutely fine - I'll make it so people can attend for free if they need to.

In other news, at some point in the last half hour, the orange cat left my lap and the cow cat sat there instead. I don't know when because I wasn't paying attention.
I think it's time to go to bed 🤣

32, I should probably increase that number!

Unfortunately I went looking to get actual quotes and got too upset. I'm sure someone else can take over. Basically she seems to think that "woman" is easily defined, like we are not all individual beings with our own bodies and relationships to those bodies.

Well the stuff she is saying about trans people is certainly made up...

As a woman (cis, not that it matters in this case but might matter to you) I can honestly say that JK and her ilk have caused me much more distress and harm than trans rights have.

Yes I did, in the UK. I'm 39. I never use it now though. My kids CAN do it but I never forced them when they were home educated - I just wanted to be able to read what they had written, in whatever handwriting they preferred. As someone with dyslexia and dyspraxia I don't see the point.
