Middle-aged, woke, and tired!

@archive_keeper @StynaLane So true! I’ve been diagnosed as depressed for 27 years (suffered for much longer!) and even I don’t think of myself as disabled! I can’t even get out of bed if I don’t regularly take my meds, and even then some days i still can’t. It’s definitely a disabling condition for me.

@spencerrandall3 @mjwmangan @pattipetersonny @benshapiro Because you actually believed I thought I should kill myself due to something a stranger said on the Internet? Okay then… 🙄

@fesshole Sorry for your loss. We lost our elderly cat back in May, and I still cry when I think of her, still can’t look at photos of her - damn, I’m crying now!

@MikeWJJF1 @Grandma88293068 @MatthewStadlen I don’t like Jeremy Corbyn, and I’m not a big fan of Diane Abbott either, but do you honestly, deep down in your soul, believe that they could be worse? And worse for who, exactly. The ordinary person, or the super rich?

@LynnChisholm14 Have you contacted Access to Work? They’re a body that suggests reasonable accommodations that your employer should make (although they often suggest devices rather than process changes, but it depends on the advisor). My husband used them when he was still in work.

@lynd5ey @mrjamesob @scots2travel That’s a good way to look at it. I’m always looking in the negative side of things; but there are positive things happening as well, I shouldn’t just ignore those.

@ro86760827 @PhilipPullman No, we didn’t ALL vote for them. Some of us have morals, ethics, and a conscience, and are appalled at what is being done in our name.

@iSmashFizzle Been reading the tweets and wondering how many ppl who can’t see that some women aren’t good mothers are mothers themselves, and conversely, how many ppl who can see it don’t have kids themselves. Does having kids colour your opinion? Genuine question.

@SarahSanders58 @Number10cat Especially golden wallpaper - so cooling did the claws!

@RobertM12997643 @GordonBrown So? Johnson is a worse liar, and a more despicable person overall. Are we playing Liar Top Trumps, because I believe I win. I’d rather believe just a liar than a liar and a cheat, and someone who (yeah yeah, “ALLEGEDLY”!) lied to Parliament

@libertyhq Good! Cis woman here, and let me tell you, TERFs don’t speak for me. Let’s stop their whataboutery and deal in facts!

[Emma Fortnum @EmFoMoFo]

@BoatGuitarSteve @danielgoyal Read up on Market Fundamentalism. They believe money = morality. Personally I find it horrifying, and literally can’t wrap my head around “richness is next to godliness”, but these psychopaths (yes, I went there!) actually think like that.

[Emma Fortnum @EmFoMoFo]

@mrchambersblog Are you saying this to me? I don’t think there’s anything mean or stupid about my reply, and I’m baffled that you can perceive it that way.

[Emma Fortnum @EmFoMoFo]

@mrchambersblog @nicholasddyer Yes, we are. Not because this happened to Trump, but because you lot voted him in! And because we’re going that way too, and a lot of us are scared shitless for what that means for us.

@LizTruss_MP I thought this was supposed to be satire?

[Emma Fortnum @EmFoMoFo]

@bobojones19 @NickBuckleyMBE @calvinrobinson @GBNEWS @KemiBadenoch @SuellaBraverman Truss, Badenoch, Braverman, Mordaunt scare the shite out of me. In fact, any single one of the entire shit-show of a party (yeah yeah, #NotAllTories) scare the shite out of me. And I’m not affiliated to any political party - just a normal voter (so not really important to them).

[Emma Fortnum @EmFoMoFo]

@parliamentview @dontbrexitfixit @trussliz @RishiSunak Sure, but I don’t want to go down with them! I shudder to think of how much damage either one of them could inflict in 2 years.
