@RobSchneider And wearing tin foil on your head will save you from the gamma rays govts are conspiring with alien forces to spray on you. It's okay though cos Elon's sending some celebs to space to deliver Trump's tariffs to other planets and then the world will be saved ....

@philshall @SeanyBoyy89 I'd say both jobs include similar stresses, pressure and physical endurance. Lifting large, heavy food containers or bins, on feet all day, cleaning the bin lorry or scrubbing an industrial kitchen...

@Drewster15 @MichaelRosenYes I suspect X has made a choice to save a few $ by just having a very basic list of literal 'no's that runs in the background, so if it's not literally typographically matching a word on the list, it passes, and the same list is used as a run-through for reported posts.

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@MichaelRosenYes The algorithm needs changing or X needs to use sentient reviewers for offensive content. I'm appalled that something like that was accepted.

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@ellielexx Such a beautiful photo. Wishing you and your family the warmest and most golden of hugs to keep you supported.

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@MichaelRosenYes Congratulations to you and your family! Very special and exciting!

@BeckyJohnson222 @gatorgar The crap with whooping cough is that the wheeze and the whoop never fully leave, they're right there for every chest infection ever after.

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@gatorgar Yup, followed swiftly by whooping cough. I skipped measles somehow though. It's the box I don't want to tick on my childhood illnesses checklist.

@zenchic @buhle_mdingi I hope it's less. My ex is shouting at me for immaturity and craziness for still crying a lot. He spent the last couple of years of our 20 yr marriage cheating , 18 months of which putting me through hell as he resented my existence and messed me around with lies and promises.

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@buhle_mdingi I hope so. I've been married for 20 years this year, but the last 18 months has been toxic while he's cheated on me. We are now informally separated but he is not yet really moved out and it is horrible. The gaslighting and her ever looming presence are not fun.

@StrayCatAgain @sharrond62 Theoretically it should then be sleeping but the wake word is the same as a power button - it sleeps through all else, but that word is set as the activation and is what switches it on. I suspect it may still be quietly listening & feeding its own algorithms in the background tho

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@sharrond62 Even with cookies turned off the rubbish keeps piling in. On this platform you see paid-for campaigns of offensive, prejudiced content, click that you don't want to see it, then are rewarded with it spamming you tenfold. Algorithms not meant for users but money and corruption.

@imnoloon I took a day off work and went to the exhibition at the museum. I was scared I'd be turned away as too uncivilised. I wasn't, there were other people there enjoying the exhibition and no one criticised me for being 'autistic because no one likes history or art'. It felt good.

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@imnoloon I just square my shoulders and push myself to. My ex was ashamed to be seen with me most of the time - he found me so unattractive and uncivilised. For years I hid at home and looked after my children. Now they're older and he's leaving, I have to embrace being alone.

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@ThrillaRilla369 Razed to the ground long ago 😥

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@i_iratus Oh my... how many twisted-up hoops of craziness were jumped through to come up with that?! I can't even begin to unravel how they arrived at that conclusion! 🤔

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@TheFigen_ So precious. It's beautiful seeing one twin reaching for their siblings and when their hand is moved, reaching back to touch their sibling's face again, and the contentment they feel in that reassurance knowing their twin is there.

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@Brian1247356379 @stella_immanuel Perfectly put! Your opening sentence says it clearly. Societal attitudes and constructed pressures to conform to a very rigid pigeonhole are gradually being broken down and there's more open recognition we're all human and perfectly imperfect.

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@Ayzel_k @NoContextBrits I think it's the utility company, so perhaps even worse than the govt for unreasonable prices and poor service....

[Jo the jo @JoDraper12]

@NoContextBrits I'd like to see them prising that 20 quid out of my cold dead, very fried hands. Especially when I don't normally have cash on me... Also, could my sons have a case for electrical safety? Just taking the cover off the box and it frying me suggests very bad wiring and no earthing
