That made me laugh out loud 🤣

I love this.
As a more mature woman in my mid 60s, & as a counselling student, I am horrified by BACP’s make up ad & lipstick colours to illustrate “how therapy can make you feel” nomorestiffupperlip.co.uk it’s how I feel on the inside - yes wearing makeup is a choice and it’s not all about how I look.
This.
Haven’t been on here for a while what’s going on?
Yeah roast it first, but you don’t need to peel it just wash it roast it with a bit of garlic, oil salt and pepper - whatever other people have told - you and then put it in a liquidiser with some stock, vegetable or chicken depending on your taste, I never take the skin off!
As a physician, I know conversion therapy is dangerous and goes against everything we stand for in healthcare. It's abusive and not grounded in science.
My work my rights. Ask or you don’t get to use.
“He’s gone absolutely crazy,” says Trump about Putin. Some projection going on.
Utterly disgusted, angry that the world does nothing. This has gone too far. No more. No more babies starving. No more innocent deaths. Why are world leaders watching Netanyahu and doing NOTHING? Shameful. You are all culpable of this as well as Putin’s atrocities.
"Where do I fit in? Where are my people?"
Playwright @shelleysilas.bsky.social takes us on a journey through Jewishness, queerness, grief, food and family—from Calcutta to North London.
It's honest, moving, and delicious (yes, there are recipes).

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism.
It’s disgusting and dangerous.
If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign.
Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness.
To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.
The James Webb Space telescope. Remarkable.
“One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman”
Simone de Beauvoir - that's all I have to say about the ruling. WOMAN is GENDER. FEMALE is SEX. I don't know any trans woman who calls herself female.
No, you go ahead and play golf while the world tumbles around you, while people are losing jobs, businesses close down, your humanity and brain down to one cell - if that - #TRUMPPLAYSGOLFWHILETHEWORLDTURNSUPSIDEDOWN
Le Pen?
@laurenlaverne.bsky.social a beautiful episode today, had me in tears. Donna Ockenden 🙏
Trump’s ping pong decisions confirm yet again his unstable and unreliable position. What will he decide to do tomorrow?
Great work everyone
The U.S. is cutting research funding, the weather service, park rangers, Social Security Admin staff, lifesaving foreign aid, plus billions in Medicaid and food stamps. For what? To potentially buy crypto with taxpayer dollars and to give more tax cuts to the rich.
The world is a v dangerous place, the vulnerable are suffering at the hands of dictators. Sad times. 🙏
And then there’s the mass sexual abuse of girls, boys, and under 5s in Sudan. Humanity. What’s happened? No more words just disbelief. @unicef.org
I have no words. How much money do they need? Want, I guess, it's about want. I despise them all.
It just dawned on me that the relationship between Donald Trump and Elon Musk is suspiciously close—and closed—in the same way the relationship between Trump and Putin is.
Then I remembered the WSJ report revealing Musk speaks with Putin regularly.
Then I understood everything.
