We Marched for Maternity yesterday. 💪💛🪧 We marched for all the women currently facing the ongoing inhumane maternity restrictions still in place within some of the 19 maternity hospitals across Ireland. #MarchForMaternity#endmaternityrestrictionsow#whoseneedsarebeingmet
@Moloknee Photos of her when she was a young actress are great.
I was once quite flattered when someone saw one of them and said I resembled her.. I told them they needed a seeing eye pigeon lol, but thank you
RIP Ms Lansbury
@AlannaBennett Irish:"My Granny said "You won't always be the Adonis you are now!" she was being sarcastic of course. My mother has too many to list but some include "jumped-up Culchie" (Dublin slang for someone from the countryside) Dry Shite (humourless person) & "a face like a slapped arse"
Epstein barr is a virus 90% of humans have been infected with. Many never exhibit acute symptoms or "mono". After many years it was proven to cause MS, the leading cause of neurological disability among young adults. We thought EBV was mild. After all most were asymptomatic,/
I once watched a colleague (who had just returned to work after maternity leave) highlight every email in her inbox and press delete. When she saw the look on my face, she shrugged and said, "If they really need to talk to me, they'll find me." I think of her nearly every day.
Of course it’s not all men. But it is all women. We are all fed up.
The best legacy we can make for Ashling Murphy is to change the culture that allows these crimes.
I hope the outpourings of grief across the country bring some comfort to her loved ones. May she be at peace.
She went out for a run. Exercising, it’s good for us. It was in a public place, in broad daylight. She did as she was told. It didn’t matter. Because it never matters. Because the victims are never to blame. It’s not our responsibility to make sure we’re not attacked.
Journalist offers an opinion? Insult her about her teeth or her hair, has she had her lips/boobs done?
Every heinous crime against one of us is followed with some advice. Don’t walk alone at night. Carry a pepper spray. Get a spiking detection kit and use it.
The 21st Century. Now we had sex education in school and a rudimentary understanding of periods. (Every 28 days, mild cramps, a tampon might give you TSS) What’s PCOS?
Rape alarms in goodie bags. No lessons on what a healthy relationship consists of, no mention of consent.
I don't know whats required. But the very first thing we can do is put pressure on the justice system for harsher sentences on murder and rape. The worst crimes you could ever commit against a human being. 12 years is not a life sentence. (3/5)
@LeanIago It’s just the external manifestation of how they speak to themselves. They don’t love themselves, therefore they are mean/cruel/unloving (however you want to put it) to everyone else too…
@Amber_Coffman No one who knows me would think I am sick or on the verge of death, but if I died of COVID-19, the State of Oregon press release would say I had “underlying conditions.” I have asthma for goodness sake. More than 50% of Americans have underlying conditions.
