My son asked me “are you on your period?” when I was telling him off. I realised this was a teaching and learning moment. The graph shows the average hormone levels between a man and a woman during a typical month.
@mochahuntas_ Not quite though, he was acquitted of 3 rape charges. The jury could not reach a verdict on 3 other rape charges so it may go to a retrial. 6 potential charges of rape? Hmm
Headlines stating “Yung Filly found not guilty of rape” are fucking diabolical and every news reporter/PUBLIC service broadcaster INCLUDING the @BBCWorld (shock horror) should be ashamed. It’s entirely misleading regarding the actual verdicts
@googlehealth@blchhfsi8s1k2z3 Had a fitbit for 7 years. Loved the app. It was simple, effective, great UI, had everything that was needed. Shouldn’t need to read a damn article to work out how to use it. Absolutely destroyed a perfectly good product. Nice one
Having watched the Bodyguard (I’m very late) it was evident to me from Ep.1 that Jed Mercurio is an ally and advocate of women, normalising to his audience, women being in positions of institutional power. A truly brilliant writer.
Being absurdly hot at 30 when I thought that was old in my early 20s, has taught me that I’m gonna be hot forever. I’m that bitch and that bitch doesn’t degrade with time. It only intensifies.
That new “instant” feature on instagram needs to fuck off. Nobody wants it and I’m not looking forward to accidentally posting some double chins when drunk
Keir Starmer has been a disappointment, but anyone calling him 'Britain's Worst Ever Prime Minister' in a world where Liz Truss & Boris Johnson exist must have been kicked in the head by a horse
Right now we watch human beings set a historic record of exploring the universe the furthest they ever have before, and at the same time I see a post that the US proposes to cut NASA budget by 23% to fund wars…
The app Flo can jog on as far as I’m concerned. Not only is it wildly incorrect in terms of menstrual/ovulation cycles, EVERY time I click on the app it tries to force purchasing the premium version multiple times, like it’s fucking Temu. Used to be good. Now it’s diabolical.
Idgaf but there is an etiquette to the hours of messaging someone… unless you’re actively talking, do not text someone’s phone between the hours of 00:00 - 07:00 at least, Why tf are you messaging me at 4AM?
In 1993, J. K. Rowling was divorced and clinically depressed, freezing in a rat-ridden Scottish flat.
She wrote in cafés for warmth while her baby slept, typing out her novel twice - she couldn't afford to photocopy it. Twelve publishers rejected it. Then Bryony Evens, a low-level reader at the Christopher Little agency, fished it from the rejection bin. The unusual binding caught her eye. Finally, Bloomsbury decided to take the risk. Why? Because the chairman's eight-year-old girl, Alice, read the first chapter and demanded more. On June 26th of 1997, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone hit the shelves. Just 500 copies were printed. "You'll never make any money from children's books, Jo," her editor warned. Today? 600 million copies sold. The best-selling book series of all time.
I share stories about women daily
@lady_valor_07 Make your bed each morning. Even if that is the only thing you do that day, you’ve completed one task. Small things can lead to big things!
@sorinaivideo @RoyalistW Sorry to hear of your cousin. I too had a friend who always seemed happy, was outgoing and always singing, it is not always obvious.
The mental health campaign by Norwich City FC showed it well. really moving. https://t.co/8HEbuOM7Mr - hopefully not triggering.
