12 yo coming up with increasingly elaborate guesses with what WAP stands for (we haven't told him) and wine are brightening an otherwise grim evening. Take care y'all x

I dont drink much anymore. But when I do the urge is to sing this little light of mine. I have no idea why.

I am actually pretty chuffed with myself #OUfamily

Small update: couldn't decide/afford a masters right now, but I like studying too much to stop, there was funding for a STEM BSc, so biomedical science is go

Child Poverty % (children living in households below the minimum wage)

Denmark 2.4%
Finland 3.2%
Norway 3.6%
Sweden 3.6%

The UK 32.1%

All four of those countries have child benefits, paid by taxing the rich, that make it almost impossible for a child to be in poverty.

@theipaper @k8_lister My husband (SEN LSA) spotted my adhd a few years ago, going down diagnosis pathway has been hell, GP told me I couldn't have it cos I was married with a recent degree (??) and glad to see someone pointing out that it's actually exhausting, depressing, isolating and a bit rubbish

What an effort from Trump, to become even more deranged. His next speech will start ‘She’s not human, they’re all saying it, she’s a centipede, everyone knows it, she’ll turn the country into a cucumber, so she can walk across it with all her legs, more legs than ever before’.

Finished, after 3 and a bit years! With a 2:1! After leaving uni the first time with a 3rd and promptly having a breakdown. Looking at masters options but still, can't believe it. Thank you for my second chance #OUresults

@OpenUniversity Learning I absolutely could finish a full time degree, work full time and raise a teenager at the same time has given me huge confidence and faith in myself I never knew I had! Also lots of transferable skills in research and communication which helped at work

🏳️‍🌈PRIDE ACROSS DOCTOR WHO🏳️‍🌈

As we get to the end of Pride month this year I decided to make some artwork to celebrate the multitude of LGBT+characters across the history of DW. FYI It’s always been woke, it’s all right here.

Emotional self-regulating is really hard with ADHD. I freaked out after work today and was on my own a couple of hours. I'm sure that it is healthy to just sit with those feelings and not act on them. But after this week I feel like I have been grated, like cheese.

I see he's been poutine handcuffs.
